Manage episode 479995828 series 3562259
Remember when you would say “SPIDER-MAN”, “Captain America,” or “STAR WARS” and people knew exactly what you meant? You mean, Miles Morales? No, not Miles!! Oh, Steve Rogers, no, I meant the NEW Cap! Oh, Star Wars! You talking about the kid friendly, “Skeleton Crew” or the attempted rape friendly, “ANDOR”…? Oh, I was talking about the Skywalkers, I honestly don’t know what “Disney Star Wars” is even supposed to be anymore. AND WHO DOES…? Why is SHARED CULTURE SO IMPORTANT? And what is it that makes a “BATMAN” a better tool for bringing people together than a “Christ”…? Oh, I don’t know, perhaps it’s because we can disagree on a myth or interpret it differently WITHOUT KILLING EACH OTHER! Myths that exist OUTSIDE OF RELIGIOUS STRUCTURES & REGIONAL HISTORY are WORTH their WEIGHT in PLATINUM to the WHOLE WIDE WORLD! Let’s dive in with Jesse Blaze Snider, the Coolest Geek Alive!
