Stories about death and dying! Very fun!Oleh Patrick Fitzgerald

In an effort to change things up, Bryan has decided to start allowing other people to have some say in the topics of choice. Stephen is first up this week, and has been inspired by the Batman v Superman trailer to discuss the concept of tone in storytelling. Why the recent appetite for the tonally dark and grim? How can tone subvert expectations? H…

So bad news. Stephen's dead. The good news is we managed to build a replacement! Parker Crow (aka, Stephen 2.0) joins Abigail and Bryan in their discussion/incoherent chattering about some of their weirdest and least popular opinions on storytelling.

Stephen is mysteriously absent this week, so Bryan and Abigail take this advantage to have a surprisingly coherent discussion!
