Jarek Berga - May 25th 2025 When self-effort sinks, grace takes hold.As we continue our series The King & His Kingdom through the Gospel of Matthew, we come to Matthew 14:22–33—where the disciples are caught in a storm, rowing through the night, and Peter steps out of the boat, only to lose confidence and begin to sink. This sermon explores what it means to follow Jesus through exhaustion, fear, doubt, and weakness—and what happens when we realize we can't make it on our own. The good news? Jesus still reaches out. He still saves. He's still Lord over the chaos.

Rina Arya is a Professor of Critical and Cultural Theory at the University of Hull, UK. She started her academic career working on the role of the sacred in death of God culture, especially in the paintings of Francis Bacon and writings of Georges Bataille, resulting in her acclaimed book "Francis Bacon: Painting in a Godless World". Her work on Bacon led to research in abjection where she wrote a number of articles and books on the subject, notably "Abjection and Representation." Rina is completing her next book on the cultural appropriation of Hinduism.​ In this conversation, Rina and I explored the areas of intersection between contemporary art and theology, focusing on theological aesthetics, embodiment, abjection, and the role of materiality in religious practices. We also discussed how contemporary artists engage with religious motifs, the impact of digital culture on spiritual experiences, and the importance of contemplative spaces in art. Additionally, we spoke about the evolving nature of religious expression in art and considered the potential for interfaith dialogue through artistic practices.

Selling enemas to replace psych meds, or treat cancer, or cure autism is some dangerous shit. But Matthew has a tingling sense that the wellness enema craze promises more than false health benefits. Perhaps the coffee might be an artisanal distraction from a more existential promise: a ritual of cleansing and muscular control for a world that feels filthy, guilty, and in absolute chaos. A way of returning to a crucially innocent time when you learned to hold it all in, then given permission to let it all out, and then lovingly cleaned up when you did. Today, Instagram gives us permission to show it to the world: look at what I made! Look at how fresh and pure I am! Look at how I am polishing my innermost self.

"I feel very often that I can detect when people are doing case presentations, this ubiquitous tendency to not bother about the body. At a very superficial level it is accepted that we run around in bodies. What is actually a slightly deeper idea is that we run around in bodies, but our minds couldn't have any function at all if our other parts of our functional systems weren't also working, So the body and the mind of course are deeply interconnected. We do know that too, that's not news, but it constantly becomes eliminated."     Episode Description: We begin with an overview of Rosemary's longstanding interest in the role of bodies and how they make their presence and meaning known in the clinical encounter. She discusses the analytic scotoma when it comes to the woman's body especially when it involves pregnancy and childbirth. We consider conflicts over being aware of and speaking freely about the analyst's body and what that is like for both parties. She shares her deep pleasure in the writings and person of Hans Loewald and what it has meant to her to be a physician. We consider how the sublimated role of a father's sexual arousal serves as an aid in his child's individuation. We close with Rosemary sharing her view of our field's past and some aspects of her personal journey.      Our Guest: Rosemary H. Balsam F.R.C.Psych (London), M.R. C. P.

Episode Notes What's done is done, it feels so bad. What once was happy now is sad. We'll never record again, our podcast's ending. I wish that I could turn back time, ‘cause now the guilt is all mine for ever suggesting we'd do Evangelion. Okay, so Connor and Niamh like to joke about how we get into a big fight about End of Evangelion because we are never going to fully agree on this film. Specifically, we both have the same basic read on what the film is trying to do, but will always be divided on our final read of the film. But like, we actually are still friends and we're both really looking forward to you all watching Magic Knight Rayearth with us and listening to those episodes. In our discussion, we focus in particular on the beginning and the end of End of Evangelion and the manga and how these two endings to the series figure separation and otherness in different ways and reach different conclusions about the possibility for human connection and touch on topics like the potential figuring of a bioessentialist view in the show and movie of the fundamental divide between men and women as the core of the human condition in the show and movie versus the manga, how the manga employs the image of hands to differently figure the relationship between humans in a way that touches less on heteronormative understandings of human relationships, the Buddhist and daoist interpretations of Eva, the ending of the movie and its parallels with Adam and Eve and the related myth of Líf and Lífþrasir emerging from the world tree after ragnarök to repopulate the earth, how necessary the intense extremes of the movie are for the message, a diversion into discussions around content warnings, our frustrations with the depiction of Misato in End of Eva, differences between the movie and the manga around Gendo and Shinji's ability to meet the expectations of the heroic shōnen protagonist, some of the weird differences between the printed tankōban volumes of the manga in the US and the scanlations on genesis-evangelion.com, how not everyone in a story should necessarily be redeemed (and perhaps some characters should not be redeemed), and our final readings on Rei and her breaking from Gendo's abuse.

Episode Notes We are joined by our first-ever guest on Ghost Divers, Brad Nelson, to discuss episodes 21 through 26 of Neon Genesis Evangelion! They are the person who first got Niamh into anime, so it's very poignant and meaningful that they are definitely the first-ever guest on the podcast and didn't at all get usurped by some brat who just decided to join to talk about Final Fantasy VIII on a complete whim. We also get the most into the manga so far around our discussion of Kaworu, so buckle up for a deeper dive into manga chapters 52–74 We start our discussion with a look at the way the series often employs lore dumps to create more questions than answers, how incredibly gay Ritsuko is for Misato, the discrepancies in how various characters perceive and understand each other and how the narrative itself becomes unreliably tied to specific perspectives, suffering in Evangelion and the tensions between Buddhism and daoism and how Niamh's worldview has changed since fae first watched the show, Asuka as an unwilling school idol, the elevator scene and how it draws out the tensions between Asuka and Rei and their inability to connect over their shared struggles, how Misato continues to offer physical touch as comfort because it's what she herself needs when she is hurting, Gendo's grooming of Rei and her attempts to break from his abuse, the romantic and sexual connection between Shinji and Kaworu, the differences between Kaworu's depiction in the show vs. the manga, our varying reads on the differing depictions of Kaworu's death and what it means for Shinji, the stylistic presentation of the final two episode of Evangelion, the misogyny of Anno and his potential gendered trauma, and of course Connor and Niamh continuing to duke it out over End of Evangelion. Speaking of, just is next time for our discussion of End of Evangelion and the conclusion of the manga!

In this episode, hosts Katherine Troyer and Anthony Tresca discuss the 1989 horror-comedy film Heathers.  Episode Highlights: We explore how this film uses the ridiculousness of high school for both comedic and horrific effect. We also talk about how the film uses both form and content to subvert traditions and break away from conformity, ensuring that "the only Heather-shaped box is a coffin." A Dose of Scholarship: We discuss Jessica Gildersleeve's 2020 article "'A friend who stabs you': Abjection, Violence and the Female Clique in Film" in The Australasian Journal of Popular Culture. Gildersleeve offers an intriguing way of contextualizing Heathers as she juxtaposes it alongside other films in this subgenre such as The Craft (1996), Jawbreaker (1999), and Mean Girls (2004).  Twitter/Instagram: @NightmarePod1; YouTube: Such a Nightmare channel; Email: suchanightmare.pod@gmail.com; ALL LINKS

Episode Notes We are back again and ready to dive into the back half of Neon Genesis Evangelion with episodes 14 through 20. We start by looking at what actually turned out to be a fairly interesting clip show episode and use it to spring into a discussion of the shift towards greater interiority and the developing undercurrents in the second half of the series; the growing characterization of Rei; Misato and Kaji as a (not always well handled) brat4brat relationship and how it factors into our read of Misato as well as Asuka as a “female impersonator” of Misato; our read on Kaji as an interesting but often creepy character; Eva's ongoing construction of divided subjects; the psychoanalytic elements of the series and Connor's theory bullshit about Kristeva's ideas about abjection; the abjection of queerness; the role of ego in sync rate and pilot performance; the solidification of the show's thematic elements in order to develop further in the finale; the misdirected desire for comfort that must be resisted to reassert selfhood and allow the potential for further life; our continuing kicking of the Mimesis can down the Ghost Divers road; and an extended discussion of one of our favorite sparsely animated scenes.

Episode Notes We are back once again with our discussion of episodes 7 through 13 of Neon Genesis Evangelion. These may be what are generally considered the lightest, most slice-of-life/monster-of-the-week episodes of the show, but Niamh and Connor know what this show is and is going to be, so this episode is still plenty dark. Niamh being her most messy Misato when fae recorded this probably didn't help. We start our discussion with the revelation that Connor is also a Misato x Ritsuko shipper, then get into the way the comparative cheeriness of these episodes feels intentionally hollow and like the illusion of happiness you create when you're depressed, Eva's deployment of tropes from “lighter” genres like romantic comedies, the duality of Misato and the ways in which she is actually not like Niamh, the subordination of all characters to Shinji as the self-obsessed depressed protagonist of the series and how this starts Connor and Niamh's one true fight on Eva that we will never fully resolve, the forced feminization of Shinji, bringing in Misora Hibari as a point of reference for Asuka as an impersonator of Misato, the psychoanalytic theory of abjection as put forth by Julia Kristeva and its relation to Eva, the possibility of communication and connection between individuals, the developing characterization of Rei, Gendo's position as the antagonist of the series, the divided subject of the MAGI system, more on the divided opinion of Connor and Niamh on whether or not Anno is a hateful little shit man, trying to talk around the end of the show and The End of Evangelion, and putting off some theory bullshit for next time. Also we kinda end up talking more about Asuka and Misora Hibari after we finished recording the podcast proper and that all made it into the post-ED outtakes section so uh… it's a little more than just goofs this time, you might want to stick around for at least some of it even if you usually skip the outtakes.

Bethany Morris is an assistant professor of psychology at Point Park University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where she teaches and does theoretical and qualitative research. Dr. Morris is a transdisciplinary scholar whose work bridges critical psychology, literature, philosophy, history, psychoanalysis, and film studies. Early in her career, at Prince Edward Island University and Brock University in Canada, she studied alternative anti-psychiatric interventions for early-onset schizophrenia as illuminated by children’s literature. During this time, she was also thinking critically about issues of women’s stigmatization and oppression. In recent years, her work has focused on using the ideas of French psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan to gain a further critical understanding of the oppression of women, psychology’s medical model, and other issues related to social justice. Her recent publications include the co-authored book Subjectivity in Psychology in the Era of Social Justice, as well as her first solo-authored book, Sexual Difference, Abjection, and Liminal Spaces. Throughout her work is a sustained critique of Borderline Personality Disorder, both as a diagnostic category and the way that it is used toward misogynistic ends in popular culture.

Robby contacted Ernie to ensure he hadn't hurt his feelings during Tuesday's The Great Reset. He had agreed with Janet that he too would leave the group if it was true that Ernie was espousing non-scriptural foundations, but didn't think that was the case.Ernie admitted that he had partly called out Robby's statement for dramatic effect; the emotional pain was minimal (and addressed).  However, he would have preferred Robby to validate Janet's emotions without necessarily endorsing her reasoning (about leaving), even if he disagreed with her facts.Surprisingly, Robby realized that he had actually lied in that statement. In reality he would not have left the group under such circumstances.  However, he unconsciously said whatever seemed necessary to reduce tensions (as he had been trained to do by his family of origin).This led to a discussion of abjection: the instinctual response to reject what is "not-self."  Ernie's claimed this was behind Janet's desire to leave the group, Robby's subconscious attempts to reduce conflict, and even his conscious mind's rejection of the part of himself that lies to avoid conflict.  Ernie suggested "communion" as the opposite of abjection, though they both identified weaknesses with that word.This tied into a larger critique Ernie had of Robby's model of "hearing and following Jesus."  While that is clearly a good thing, Ernie pointed out that the disciples (and many others) clearly heard and followed Jesus for three years, yet still fell away at the cross (except for John).  He suggested the stronger term "Jesus lover", reflecting Jesus' challenge in John 21:15-17 for Peter to "love" (identify with, even in suffering) rather than merely "like" (enjoy for the sake of benefits) him.He ended by arguing that in the end, the only thing that matters is relationships.  And in particular, that if we focus in the right way on improving our relationship with our "selves", we will open ourselves to not just hear Jesus more clearly, but become a conduit of His grace to all our other relationships.References Automated Transcript Immanuel Approach Abjection (Julia Kristeva) Being as Communion (John Zizioulas) Prelude to Reconciliation (Type 1 and 2) "To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice; and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.

From the films of Larry Clark to the feminist comedy of Amy Schumer to the fall of Louis C. K., comedic, graphic, and violent moments of abjection have permeated twentieth- and twenty-first-century social and political discourse. The contributors to Abjection Incorporated: Mediating the Politics of Pleasure and Violence (Duke University Press, 2020) move beyond simple critiques of abjection as a punitive form of social death, illustrating how it has become a contested mode of political and cultural capital—empowering for some but oppressive for others. Escaping abjection's usual confines of psychoanalysis and aesthetic modernism, core to theories of abjection by thinkers such as Kristeva and Bataille, the contributors examine a range of media, including literature, photography, film, television, talking dolls, comics, and manga. Whether analyzing how comedic abjection can help mobilize feminist politics or how expressions of abjection inflect class, race, and gender hierarchies, the contributors demonstrate the importance of competing uses of abjection to contemporary society and politics. They emphasize abjection's role in circumscribing the boundaries of the human and how the threats abjection poses to the self and other, far from simply negative, open up possibilities for radically new politics.

Whether analyzing how comedic abjection can help mobilize feminist politics or how expressions of abjection inflect class, race, and gender hierarchies, the contributors demonstrate the importance of competing uses of abjection to contemporary society and politics. They emphasize abjection's role in circumscribing the boundaries of the human and how the threats abjection poses to the self and other, far from simply negative, open up possibilities for radically new politics.

From Monteverdi to Monty Python, cross-dressing, gross-out humour and a preoccupation with the grotesque seems to offer a release from the constrictions of moral codes and social conventions. A familiar face on the Opera North stage, tenor Daniel Norman takes a trip into transgression in the company of Alan O'Leary, Professor of Film and Cultural Studies at the University of Leeds. Drawing on the theories of philosopher and critic Mikhail Bakhtin, they discuss “the licence to misbehave” in opera, film and performance; the liberating effect of the Carnivalesque in the arts; and its unforeseen consequences.

Such a Nightmare: Conversations about Horror

In this episode, hosts Katherine Troyer and Anthony Tresca discuss the 2014 film It Follows.Episode Highlights: Katherine establishes a critical framework for the abject, Anthony talks about STGs (sexually transmitted ghosts), and we deplore over the film's abundance of panning shots. A Dose of Scholarship: For more on the concept of the abject, check out Powers of Horror: An Essay on Abjection by Julia Kristeva. We also highly recommend Barbara Creed's article "Horror and the Monstrous-Feminine: An Imaginary Abjection," which can be found in the edited collection The Dread of Difference: Gender and the Horror Film. In addition to masterfully unpacking Kristeva's ideas, Creed offers an excellent example of how to analyze specific horror films through the lens of the abject.Twitter/Instagram: @NightmarePod1; Email: suchanightmare.pod@gmail.com

This week on The Spectator Film Podcast… The Blair Witch Project (1999) 10.12.18 Featuring: Austin, Maxx — Notes — The Monstrous-Feminine: Film, Feminism, and Psychoanalysis by Barbara Creed — If you’re curious to learn more about the Abject/Abjection, seek this book out. Creed continues Clover’s excellent work discussing how gender can express itself in horror films. On the same note, Creed’s use of the term “Abject” relies a lot upon Powers of Horror: An Essay on Abjection by Julia Kristeva. Check it out. “Visual Pleasure and Narrative Cinema” by Laura Mulvey is one of the seminal essays in the history of film criticism, as is “When the Woman Looks” by Linda Williams. Regardless of your interest in The Blair Witch Project or the horror genre in general, these two essays are highly recommended – this is “must-read” material. Each essays does a tremendous job investigating the importance of vision/the gaze to film viewership, and its direct relationship to character agency. Concerning Heterotopias, we found a number of interesting and useful resources, although the most thorough appears to be heterotopiastudies.com. We emailed Peter Johnson, who runs the site, with some questions about heterotopias in reference to the horror genre; he provided me with several resources he thought might be beneficial: Chung, H. J.  (2018) Media Heterotopias Durham NC: Duke University Press  Chung, H. J.(2012)  ‘Media Heterotopia and Transnational Filmmaking: Mapping Real and Virtual Worlds'. Cinema 51 (4) 87-109.  Davies, A. (2008) ‘Guillermo del Toro’s Cronos: the Vampire as Embodied Heterotopia', Quarterly Review of Film and Video, 25 (5): 395-403. Here’s the link to a nice, lengthy blog post from slaphappylarry.com that might provide another useful entry point for understanding heterotopias. “The Invisible Monstrous-Feminine: The Blair Witch and Her Heterotopic Woods” by Erez Genish is an essay discussing The Blair Witch Project in reference to the idea of heterotopias; we didn’t quote the essay directly, but finding it is what encouraged us to investigate heterotopias in the first place. It’s worth a look! Hitchcock by Francois Truffaut is a fantastic read, from which we pulled a quote early in the episode. It’s not the most rigorous or reliable study of Hitchcock’s work, but it remains and incredibly enjoyable book. The Blair Witch Project by Peter Turner is a solid introduction into some of the critical discussions taking place regarding The Blair Witch Project, as well as providing some great information on the production of the film.

Penny Dreadful, having premiered at South by Southwest and airing on Showtime, is a “quality TV” version of episodic horror. The series derives its name from 19th century serialized fiction called penny dreadfuls, and the series’ main characters and narrative arches are derived from classic 19th century horror literature (Dracula, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus for example).
