Episode 046: And What Is Cathartic?
Thursday Sep 16, 2021
Thursday Sep 16, 2021
The dictionary defines "catharsis" as "the process of releasing, and thereby providing relief from, strong or repressed emotions", but is it always necessary to have it in stories? Should we be content when our narratives resolve in a neat little finale? Or is it more important to have our tales be reflective pictures of the human condition? And is this just a recorded argument between two random dudes, or is there something more meaningful taking place? Find out as Nathan takes on the subject in a debate with psychology student Ricky Jesus, AKA "Tyler Saison".
