”The Greatest Sidekicks” and supporting characters are so important to the stories we love. This episode is dedicated to the bards, partners, love interests and buddies that power the greatest tales in pop culture. We talk Watson, Spock, Robin, Short Round, Jimmy Olsen, Lois Lane, and many others. We show the value of these second bananas and the functions they serve in the stories. We even nominate some for a promotion to Main Character! The end of this episode contains a wonderful fan letter and we pitch the greatest ”sidekick-to-hero” story of alllll tiiiime!!!
