From the Old Winyards: Till We Have Faces, Part 7 (Saturday Rerun)

Apologies (again) for the late Saturday upload. Here's Part 7 of our Till We Have Faces series. Enjoy!

Stay tuned for the first brand new episode of Season 5. We'll start with The Horse and His Boy on March 4 and update with a new episode every two weeks.

This week, Chris and Anika discuss Chapters 12 and 13 of Till We Have Faces.  Subjects for discussion include:

• Santeria and the First Amendment (and also, of course, "Santeria" by Sublime)
• How Orual-the-author is being changed while telling us about Orual-the-character's refusal to change
• Possessive love and our tendency to be ruined by strong loves
• The "ferly" in Middle English literature
• Is Bardia's fear of the gods practical fear for his safety or fear of the numinous?
• Orual withholds key evidence!
• The Fox's theology and soul-houses
• How true divine nature is foolishness to the Greek and a stumbling block for the Glomian
• At the end: Various proposals for an '80s fantasy movie based on Till We Have Faces.  (Someone please make a poster of this idea.)

Special thanks to my brother Jason Pipkin for the incredible '80s-style synth track used at the end!  Apologies if I overuse it, but I really liked it.  Other music sampled includes:

• "Our Father" in Aramaic
• "The Hurrian Hymn" as played by Michael Levy
• "Santeria," by Sublime
• "Princes of the Universe," by Queen
• "Quantum Leap" theme by Mike Post

In two weeks, we meet the God of the Mountain!  Talk about numinous and sublime!
