On the evening of Friday the 13th, I was joined by six very special long-time listeners of the podcast to reminisce about the first 50 episodes of Speaking of Jung.
First up was television director Norman Buckley in Hollywood, California. We discussed how he became interested in Jung, how he found the right analyst, the importance of the analytic relationship, and the death of both his spouse and his analyst. Norman shared his dreams about me and how listening to this podcast has affected his life.
Next up was studio-based visual artist and art professor Timothy Hull in New York City. He shared that his work is made while listening to Speaking of Jung and explained what he finds so interesting about Jung. We also delved into the subject of the shadow and why we should love Jung’s shadow.
In the second half of the episode, I was joined by four long-time Twitter followers: novelist Michael Walters in Yorkshire, England; Victoria Hall on White Head Island in the Bay of Fundy; Peter Stuart Lakanen in Tallahassee, Florida; and John Amenta in Idaho Falls, Idaho. We discussed how we all came to know each other on Twitter, how and why we each became interested in Jung, and what this podcast has meant to us.
These discussions were recorded on Friday, December 13, 2019. The episode is 03:02:00 long and a whopping 159 MB. You can listen to it right here in your browser or download it directly to your computer. This episode is also available on Apple Podcasts, Google Play, TuneIn, Spotify, and iHeartRadio.
