Place Myth and Story | Martin Shaw (Bardskull)

Legendary storyteller and mythologist, Dr Martin Shaw joins the show this week. On the occasion of the release of his remarkable and uncharacterisable (although I try) new book, Bardskull.

We talk about the weakness of the word archetype, we talk about place and story and transformation, we talk about myth and landscape,we talk about Tolkien, Gandalf and Merlin, we talk about defending indefensible books, and… in the end and ultimately, we talk about spiritual transformation.

A fantastic chat. One of the best of the year, for sure. Enjoy!
