In this week’s episode, I talk about the strange and terrible power of real, material, physical evil, and its lasting effect on all of us. I explain why it has such power and how its power persists for so long – and why and how it fails, each and every time. And I examine the ways in which we can all stand up against evil. This is probably one of my more unusual podcasts, in that I pull in references from all over the shop – Stranger Things, books, movies, history, and so on. But I had a lot of fun talking through it, and I hope you enjoy it as well.
