Episode: Episode 90 - Jumanji (1995)
Description: This week we cover the adventure fantasy classic from 1995, Jamanji, chosen by our lovely patrons! We discuss how working through grief and trauma with others can help with finding closure, how it can be dangerous when workers don’t own the means of production, and how games and fantasy don’t always have to be a means of escape, and that they can sometimes help with the healing process. Who knew these were all themes from a children’s fantasy movie about a jungle-themed game? Plus, one of the main timelines of the film takes place in 1969. Nice!
