Never Say Die: The Humanism of The Goonies
When Mikey Walsh shouts, “Goonies never say die,” it’s more than a movie quote — it’s a philosophy. Beneath the treasure maps, pirate ships, and underground tunnels, The Goonies teaches a timeless Humanist truth: we are stronger when we honor each other’s humanity.
In this episode of The Daily Morningcast, Alex Hill explores how friendship, loyalty, and courage form the real treasure at the heart of this 1985 classic. From Data’s inventiveness to Chunk’s humor, Mouth’s defiance, and Mikey’s heart — every difference becomes strength when it’s shared.
Through the lens of Humanism, we unpack how The Goonies shows the best of what it means to be human — not perfect, but brave, loyal, and connected. Because in a world that often feels divided, the courage to believe in one another might just be the map we’ve been missing.
