Male fantasies in popular media
We're always hearing about "the female fantasy" in movies like Twilight and 50 Shades of Grey, but what about male fantasies? Today, we break down different types of male fantasies, such as the "squeaky-clean hero," the "one special boy," and the "you missed the point" fantasies with popular media spanning TV and film. We talk Nolan Batman, Sam Raimi's Spider-Mens, Breaking Bad, Starship Troopers, Harry Potter, and just about every Leo character in Martin Scorsese's movies. It seems like women aren't the only ones dreaming about what their lives could be.

Too Late to Die Young
Today, we discuss "Too Late to Die Young," the 2006 memoir by Harriet McBryde Johnson. Johnson was a writer and attorney living in Charleston, South Carolina, who self-described herself as a "disabled, liberal, atheistic Democrat." Her memoir is a reflection on her various life experiences. Hannah introduced Sam to her with Johnson's famous essay "Unspeakable Conversations." We decided we'd read her memoir for the pod, and wow, what a great read this was!
