It is true that the stories we consume can affect the sort of people we are. In this episode, however, hosts Timothy Deal and Nick Hayden examine the truth of the reverse. Do a culture's stories reflect the sort of people we already are--both our virtues and our vices? In a wide-ranging discussion, they attempt to put a finger to the pulse of our culture's current story values and what it might say about who we are.

Then, after another Once Upon a Scene, Timothy and Nick discuss The Mandalorian, Andor, Muppets Mayhem, Peer Gynt, and other stories old and new in Our Take on Tales.

So, listen in to this 141st episode of your premiere podcast on storytelling for the creator and the consumer. It certainly says something profound about your refined tastes in podcasts, if nothing else.
