I remember listening to this on National Public Radio awhile back.
It is available on CD from NPR.
I enjoyed the Star Wars radio show.
I was not up on Joseph Campbell's books at the time, so I did not see all the mythology behind Star Wars.
I saw the Jedi Knights as martial artists.
I saw "the force" as "ki".
I saw Star Wars as a Good vs. Evil story.
However after Campbell's death, PBS aired a Bill Moyers series, The Power of Myth.
I saw some of the series and was enlightened by it.
I am looking for the book The Power of Myth.
In memory of ...
Joseph Campbell and Peter Cushing
