Message: “The Problem with the Virtuous Hero”

Bryne and JR. recap some of our favorite films of a very good year, then dive into a couple that signal a shift in how we are telling stories as a culture.

We evaluate this shift, and why we are so excited for it.

Bryne, JR. and their guests choose instead to investigate the elephants, to let them draw us together rather than divide.
