#10 "Why are they such BAD people?" — The Succession Episode
Description
This week on the Take What You Need podcast, we deep-dive into the psychology of one of my favourite shows, HBO's Succession. The hallmark of great literature and media is that it holds up a mirror into our society on a macro scale, and the condition of humanity on a microscale, and Succession does that with equal doses of drama and comedy. This episode touches on generational patterns, the sibling experience and the TRUE meaning of the word ‘succession’.
ESSENTIAL FAQs:
- Do I need to have watched Succession to enjoy this episode? No, I explain everything so hopefully it’s interesting
- Are there spoilers? Yes, only a couple. Approach with caution (tbh, where have you been and why aren’t you caught up?)
