Happy(?) Ash Wednesday, everyone! This week, the boys discuss the narrative function of death in fiction, memorable uses of death in fiction, and the importance of reflecting on our own mortality. Caleb gets morbid about pets, Noah's new puppy makes special audio appearances in the background, and Jonah doesn't want to talk about anything but anime. All that and more on this week's episode of Faith and Fiction!

This week, the boys discuss the odd relationship between many Christians and the fantasy genre. Why do so many Christians get riled up against fantasy works while adoring authors like Tolkien and Lewis? What was it like growing up in the Bible Belt while being huge fans of Pokémon, Harry Potter, and other "blacklist" series? What is it like as Christian adults who love Dungeons and Dragons but know that they need to keep quiet about that hobby in certain circles? We discuss all that and more on this week's episode of Faith and Fiction!
