Description

In this episode Fola begins to think subtextually this is the most important episode of the first season and as such tries to explain the idea of Lacanian Theory, which doesnt really exist, and is what he retrospectively now understands to be the phenomenon of "Structuralism".

Beyond that Helen and Fola also talk about Defence Mechanisms and repression. Theres a lot in this episode.

FYI There is a 2 hr uncut version of this podcast which Fola said he'll release if the demand is there #releasethefolacut lets get it trending...

Anyway Fola found this episode hard
