For Mythic Mind's 100th episode, author and teacher Aaron Bair asks what fairy-story enchanted you young and still shapes who you are. Personal enchantment, myth and reality, and the bridge between childhood wonder and adult formation take center stage.
Dr. Andrew Snyder (professor of philosophy and theology) joins Aaron (A Joyful Outpost, on the Beavers of Narnia) and the fellowship for a conversation about the stories that train desire: Narnia, MacDonald, The Iron Giant, and other first loves of the imagination.
Topics include myth becoming fact, why formative stories outlast content, and celebrating a hundred episodes by returning to enchantment itself.
