Extremely accessible commentary on Critical Edition

“As an Indian who has read several versions of the story at various points in my life, it is a treasure to see someone provide a non-academic reading from a perspective of the fourth wall.
It is not authoritative in terms of background information from other stories about popular characters we encounter in the Bharatha but I think that only makes it fascinating as there are plenty of other sources for that and the podcaster does not have an endless clutter of information from childhood cluttering their first perspectives of the story.
The podcaster operates from a more unique angle of being a thorough observer who can point out some major peculiarities that even I have not noticed in the past.
For instance, those of us into the story know about the different variations of the disrobing scene or the debate about the extent of divinity of K but the stark difference between the K in the Bhagwata Purana and the Mahabharata was so eye opening. The author is right that the K of the MHabharatha is primarily a strategic genius unlike his lurid, destructive descriptions in the Purana.
I really appreciate the effort made to make something which is both accessible and yet interested in the comparative version study and character study of the work. Great stuff.”
