David and Tamler confront their shadows and dive into Carl Jung\u2019s theory of the collective unconscious. What are the central differences between Jung and Freud? What did Jung mean by archetypes and what\u2019s his evidence for their centrality in the human psyche? How can we integrate elements of our unconscious and avoid projecting them onto the world? Can Jung\u2019s ideas tell us anything about culture wars and relationships?

Plus, an fMRI study on offensive humor \u2013 I thought you were stronger Batman!
