Reflections on Our Dark Side

In this episode we look at Meesh's blog and how he doesn’t glorify villains, but he reveals why we recognize ourselves in them. Through deeply personal essays on Fight Club, Star Wars, and Endgame, he explores how characters like Tyler Durden, Darth Vader, and Thanos reflect our buried rage, quiet compromises, and unspoken fears. This isn’t a debate over who was right—it’s a raw examination of what happens when the enemy isn’t external, but emotional. Listeners should expect an honest conversation about the lines between strength and surrender, rebellion and ruin... and what it means to see your own shadow in the stories you thought were about someone else.
