Bart of Darkness and the Secret Sharer Bad Breath Presents: R. Carmichael's BEACHWATCH 2022

    • Comedy Interviews

Collin (@flavorstraw) fills in for a solo episode to discuss depictions of the soul in popular media, specifically, as seen in The Simpsons episode Bart Sells His Soul. While teasing out the theological and metaphysical implications--highlighting Lisa's profound insights as they relate to the the value of one's own soul--Collin compares this storyline with the one found in Joseph Conrad's The Secret Sharer, showing that here again, we have a story in which the value and status of one's soul is examined and is recognized as something not to be taken for granted. 

Interlude: The Residents - Phantom 

Outro: Johnny Moggi Quintet - Night's Perfume
