People say there are only nine basic plots. They say stories can be broken down into tropes and stereotypes and MacGuffins. Well, Tim and Nick say, “That sounds like a good episode topic!” So listen in as they discuss the skeleton of a story, the primal pieces that shock a story to life.
In the second half, they debut a new segment that should be pun times for all, and revisit Live Brainstorming! It’s episode 66 of your premiere podcast on storytelling, full of the silliness, sidetracks, LOST references, and occasional wisdom that are the foundation of a hour you’ll enjoy for long after you listen (and never get back). Enjoy!
