Down to the River to Play

This chapter of Bluey Bros refers to episode 1:29, The Creek. In this podcast episode, we discuss the communicative power of nature to offer us clarity and insight. Bandit and the kids go down to the creek to play and provide a powerful reminder that playing in nature provides us with unseen benefits but often deeply felt as we encounter nature. We discuss the history of nostalgia, Emmanuel Kant’s notion of sublimity, and Martin Buber’s insights on the nature of encounters with animals.
