Episode 53 features Host Jake Fowler's cousin Hank Hehman. Hank, like the best of stories, spreads cheer and joy everywhere he goes. In this episode we talk about how the stories we grow up on shape our values, identity, and leadership.

We talk Disney’s Renaissance era, superheroes as Americas mythology , childhood lessons like The Boy Who Cried Wolf, and why modern cartoons feel different today.

From history to comics to becoming an Eagle Scout, this conversation connects storytelling to culture, character, and community.

If you’ve ever wondered why certain movies, heroes, or childhood lessons stuck with you — this one will hit.
