This week on the Take What You Need podcast, we deep-dive into the psychology of one of my favourite shows, HBO's Succession. The hallmark of great literature and media is that it holds up a mirror into our society on a macro scale, and the condition of humanity on a microscale, and Succession does that with equal doses of drama and comedy. This episode touches on generational patterns, the sibling experience and the TRUE meaning of the word ‘succession’.

ESSENTIAL FAQs:

• Do I need to have watched Succession to enjoy this episode? No, I explain everything so hopefully it’s interesting
• Are there spoilers? Yes, only a couple. Approach with caution (tbh, where have you been and why aren’t you caught up?)

IN THIS EPISODE:

• Why I think describing the Roys as ‘bad people’ actually misses the point

• I give a snapshot of just how deep and brilliant this show is in my eyes…

• How annoyed I’d be if I was Connor Roy

• ls a look into 2053, when we have a Succession reboot 👀

Let me know what you think!
