You turn fifteen and (if you're a guy) you suddenly want to put on a helmet and beat your buddies' brains out on the football field, drive fast, hang with your homies, and blow things up. Are you crazy? No, you have been seized by your Warrior Archetype. It has "kicked in" from the Collective Unconscious and emboldened and empowered you. The Spartans knew this. So did the Romans. They built entire cultures around it. We'll dig into it more deeply today.

New episodes every Monday and Thursday.
