Part 2 of our double-sized Episode 50! The StoryMen come to you live from the Q2014 Conference held in Nashville, TN, where they're joined by English professor and story expert Sarah-Jane Murray. In Part 2, we review the second day of Q, working through our favorite speakers, some problematic discussions of gender, some great discussions of gender, and what we thought of Day 2. Also it was super-late when we recorded, so we're a bit slap-happy.

JR. lives in Dallas, TX with his wife Amanda. In addition to exploring the wonders that are the Lone Star state, JR. is the teaching pastor at Catalyst Community Church, a writer and blogger.
