Talking animals, gods, and aliens

  • Summary

  • A lot of cultural infrastructure that goes into the making of human civilisation is fictional in nature. For example, there is literally no difference between talking animal characters in children’s stories, aliens in adult science fiction, and the gods of mythology. They all come from the same source — human imagination in service of the human survival instinct. They all came into being because we need to understand. Today’s audio is about that. That and Duck Tales of course. Get on the email list at vimoh.substack.com (https://vimoh.substack.com?utm_medium=podcast)
