このコンテンツについて

In this episode, I explore a paradox I’ve carried for years: why SpongeBob SquarePants and Dostoyevsky’s Prince Myshkin from The Idiot are, at their psychological core, the same archetype. One is preserved for laughs; the other is destroyed for being good. Through the Seven Deadly Sins embedded in Bikini Bottom, the prophetic modernity of 19th-century Russia, and the ancient Greek dichotomy of comedy versus tragedy, I examine what happens when radical innocence confronts a morally inverted world.

This is an exploration of purity, corruption, social mirrors, literary psychology, and what it means to be “the idiot” in a society that no longer recognizes goodness. If you’re interested in philosophy, character analysis, existential storytelling, or the deeper mechanics of art, this episode might resonate with you.

As always, sit back, relax, and enjoy.
