Monsters and You
from Scriptnotes Podcast
Mad scientists John and Craig dissect monsters and how they function in the stories we tell. How do monsters differ from the average villain? What makes them tick? And how do you make them fascinating? We also discuss how narratives are applied to real-life news, follow up on aphantasia and diabetes, and answer a listener question on characters in cosplay. In our bonus segment for premium members, John and Craig fire up their dial-up modems to reminisce about the old internet.
