This month’s Podish-Sortacast covers real life redemption arcs.
This episode is the mirror image of #17. That month, we discussed things we like that have… “issues;” this month, we talk about the creators who made something problematic, realized their mistake, and tried to make up for it. We’re both stepping through the other side of the looking glass, and taking a more optimistic view of screwing up. You really can do better!
I can’t make this one because I have to be a caretaker this weekend. It will be streamed live this Saturday at 4 PM CST on YouTube. I might catch it if I’m awake.
What creators do you think went though a real life creation arc?
that’s why i’m missing this one. can hardly think of an example.
i guess in sandman gaiman had a kinda transploitive plot arc, even if it was sympathetic to the gals, and i haven’t seen him do that in a long time. again tho, i don’t know if he’s ever acknowledged the issue there or not. i’m just not interested enough to research it. fan culture, which is where these discussions most often arise, is hella not my thing.
