Shaking up our rigorous PhD lineup here, I’m bringing in my best friend and fellow Temple student Duncan Brady to talk about the seven deadly sins in pop culture! Some of our favorite TV shows, Lost and The Good Place, address the sins, and we also watched Seven for this episode, so there’s all sorts of good stuff to look forward to. From whether Desmond Hume is indeed sinful to “What’s in the box?!” to the wonderful side of human mortality, we hope you enjoy this bonus episode.


To avoid spoilers, here are timestamps to everything! Feel free to skip around:

27:23 – A message from Duncan for those of you who haven’t watched Lost or gave up on it
