A NotebookLM podcast production from Pearl News - A United Nations of the United States of America chapter global news network. In this episode, we dive into The Explorers Guild, an epic adventure novel co-created by Kevin Costner. At first glance, it’s a fantastical tale of hidden cities and early 20th-century quests—but guest Aja reveals unexpected links between the story’s themes and the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).From SDG 16 (Peace & Justice) to SDG 4 (Quality Education), we explore how fiction—even escapist adventure—can spark reflection on real-world issues. Along the way, we unpack Costner’s deep creative influence, rich character arcs, and how storytelling itself can be a tool for global awareness.📚 Explore the intersections of myth, media, and meaningful change.🌍 Learn more at www.pearlnewsuna.org
