The Giving Tree (1964)

If you’ve ever pondered the sometimes fuzzy line between love vs. sacrifice … or helping vs. enabling … or beloved children’s classic vs. entitled child’s manifesto, then this episode is for you.

We’re turning the pages of Shel Silverstein’s classic, The Giving Tree and exploring the themes we thought we loved (???), while unraveling the enigma of the renaissance man himself.

But wait, there's so much more! We dare to ask whether Silverstein was an intellectual hottie and where the hell the forest's village was at, but not before discussing the high cost of lumber, why kids are attracted to ugly images, and of course, the healthy boundaries required in every relationship.
