Load-Bearing Myths

About this episode

The episode discusses the myths that support societal structures and the consequences of their collapse.

What myths are holding up the roofs of society? Our sense of religiosity? What happens when those pillars get knocked out and the roof caves in? The Areopagites discuss all this and give some updates of their last few months' adventures.
