Not every hero is squeaky clean. Not every hero wants to save the world and then go back to living a decent, unassuming life. Some heroes cheat. Some heroes kill. Some heroes, in other circumstances, might be considered the bad guy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What do we do with these so-called anti-heroes? Do we celebrate them for being realistic? Do we revile them for being broken? Hosts Timothy Deal and Nick Hayden tackle the role of anti-heroes for your listening pleasure in the first half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the second half, they share another Once Upon a Sentence, and then examine a variety of animes, video games, and series in Our Take On Tales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, whether you’re a knight in shining armor or a scarred and tortured protagonist using violence to save an innocent child from a twisted post-apocalyptic world, listen in to Episode 128 of your premiere podcast on story-telling for the creator and the consumer, Derailed Trains of Thought.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
