S3E1 - Pixar's "Bao"

The Unreliable Narrators are back! Today, Sophie and Raymond discuss about a recent Pixar short film in which a mother makes a dumpling that unexpectedly come to life. Among other themes, we discuss the character archetype of the "devouring mother," the relation between food, memory, and forgiveness, and...ancient Mesopotamian myths?? Find out how we pull all these ideas together in this first episode of season 3!

In our next episode, we'll be discussing the role-playing video game "Undertale" produced by indie game developer Toby Fox.
