191 - Exploring the Psyche: Identity and Becoming a Self21 Sep 202601:15:52
Watch the video:
https://youtu.be/iXr8KuutfW0

When Boethius lost everything, Lady Philosophy told him the wound beneath the wound: you have forgotten who you are. That diagnosis still lands. Who are you when the roles, tests, and labels fall away?

In this Mythic Mind Exploring the Psyche conversation, Dr. Andrew Snyder (professor of philosophy and theology) talks with licensed therapists Jeremy Key and Tyler Finders about identity: Myers-Briggs and Enneagram snapshots, the trap of "I am my diagnosis," agency that will not go away, and Kierkegaard's claim that the self is a relation in motion rather than a fixed type.

Topics include authenticity versus persona, how suffering clarifies what is real, and why identity often arrives when you stop hunting for it and start seeking what is good.

190 - Exploring the Psyche: The Importance of Home15 Sep 202601:16:15
In this Mythic Mind Exploring the Psyche conversation, Dr. Andrew Snyder talks with licensed therapists Jeremy Kee and Tyler Finders about the value of home: roots and responsibility, the fear of committing to the wrong thing, hobbits who leave the Shire in order to save it, and C.S. Lewis’s reminder that pleasant inns are not the final destination.

Topics include belonging in a shifting world, establishing versus finding home, and why home still matters psychologically and spiritually.

189 - Anxiety Means You Can Choose10 Sep 202601:17:57
Anxiety is usually treated as a disease to be eliminated. Medication and psychotherapy have their place, but what if, in our pursuit of so-called mental health, we are lobotomizing something essential to being human?

In this Exploring the Psyche conversation, Andrew is joined again by licensed therapists Tyler Finders and Jeremy Key to ask what anxiety actually is. We argue that anxiety is not an impediment to agency, but a call of the human spirit to take responsibility for our choices in the moment where what has been meets what might still be.

We talk about surface-level anxiety versus deeper existential anxiety, courage as every virtue at its testing point, spheres of control versus spheres of concern, and why anxiety cannot (and need not) be “cured.” It can only be answered: by reclaiming agency instead of surrendering it.

If anxiety is how freedom feels, the question is not how to make it disappear, but how to let it educate us into responsibility.

186 - A Review of the BBC's That Hideous Strength (Readings from the Inkwell)10 Aug 202600:13:01
C.S. Lewis's That Hideous Strength is a profound, still very underread story that provides penetrating insights into the growing forces of dehumanization that drive much of our culture.

In 2025, the B.B.C produced an audio drama adaptation. Here is my review.

182 - The Two Towers, Part 2: Helm's Deep and the Palantir16 Jul 202600:34:39
Watch the video:
https://youtu.be/_XTGWHb0iDY

Tolkien once wondered whether a film could cut Helm's Deep. In the book it still teaches how hope arrives at dawn, and how a seeing-stone can undo the unwary.

In this Mythic Mind Lord of the Rings study, Dr. Andrew Snyder (professor of philosophy and theology) walks Book III, chapters 7–11: the Hornburg and the men of Rohan, Gandalf's dawn, and the Palantir's dangerous gift of sight after Orthanc.

Topics include battle as more than spectacle, hope against despair, and why true seeing is moral before it is magical.

181 - J.R.R. Tolkien and the Long Defeat13 Jul 202600:10:55
What does the future hold? What has been let go by the past? How should we view the moving horizon?

In this episode, I draw from Tolkien's letters, The Lord of the Rings, and his essays, "The Monsters and the Critics" and "On Fairy-Stories," to discuss his concept of The Long Defeat.

180 - AI Storytelling: What Remains Properly Human09 Jul 202601:38:20
Watch the video:
https://youtu.be/1jTkmfAQ9SI

We live amid tribal AI arguments: every machine-made frame is "slop," or every model is just a new paintbrush. This Mythic Mind conversation slows down between those poles with a technologist and a novelist.

Dr. Andrew Snyder (professor of philosophy and theology) is joined by Josh Daws (former Disney software engineer; VP of Technology at The Blaze) and novelist Michael Kane (After Moses) to ask what AI-generated media can and cannot bear as storytelling, and what remains properly human when prediction scales into myth-shaped output.

Topics include creativity and collaboration with tools, the temptation of knee-jerk culture-war takes, and how authors and audiences might keep soul in an age of autocomplete.

171 - Tolkien on Allegory and Application08 Jun 202600:33:00
Tolkien is known to despise allegory, but he is also clear that fiction, including his own, has a relationship with the primary world that can be used as a conduit for truth. In this lesson from the 2025 Lord of the Rings study, I discuss Tolkien's approach to allegory and application.

167 - Has Science Answered the Religious Question?25 May 202600:34:33
Neil deGrasse Tyson told Piers Morgan that we do not need to appeal to God to answer cosmological questions because the empirical sciences have demonstrated sufficient explanatory power.

In the final episode of this C.S. Lewis and the News series, I use this exchange as an occasion to discuss Lewis's thoughts on the supposed challenges that modern science levies against theological explanations of causation.

166 - C.S. Lewis, Conspiracies, and the Power of Friendship18 May 202600:48:25
While it is certain that any number of things may be "really going on," it is not difficult to make the case that the modern internet-saturated culture is plagued by unhealthy conspiratorial thinking.

What drives these tendencies?

How can C.S. Lewis help us to stay grounded in reality and responsibility?

In this episode, I seek answers to these questions with the help of Stephen Kent, who is a political TV commentator and columnist, author of How the Force can Fix the World, and host of Geeky Stoics.

160 - Augustine on Time, Eternity, and Freedom20 Apr 202600:31:13
What is time?

What is its relationship with eternity?

Does God's perfect knowledge of negate our apparent free will?

As we continue through the Boethius section of "Life, Death, and Meaning with Beowulf and Boethius," we take a look at Augustine's understanding of time, eternity, and freedom.

142 - Beowulf, Baldur, and Christ: Myth Became Fact16 Feb 202600:17:30
Baldur the Beautiful dies by mistletoe, waits in Hel, and is promised return after Ragnarok. Beowulf remembers a brother-slaying that looks a lot like Hod and Baldur. What do those northern stories have to do with Christ?

In this Life, Death, and Meaning with Beowulf and Boethius episode, Dr. Andrew Snyder retells Baldur's death and "resurrection," notes the Herebeald/Haethcyn contact in Beowulf, and turns to C.S. Lewis's "Myth Became Fact": if the gospel is the myth that entered history under Pontius Pilate, pagan dying-rising gods are not a threat but expected shadows of the Logos. Christ is more than Baldur, not less.

Part of the Beowulf & Boethius / Life, Death, and Meaning series.
