Today Alex must heroically persevere through Chris's awful Irish brogue and endless tributes to Roddy Doyle and Tim Fielder to discuss lingering questions about WandaVision and what it's like to write heroic characters. A hero is usually someone who does “the right thing, at a precarious time.” Or they face something life threatening for the sake of others. They save lives, invent cures, sacrifice themselves in some outstanding manner in a just cause or selfless act. So how do you write about such characters? Is it simple and easy, or ... could it have a more complicated side? Have any comments or questions for this episode topics? Then please leave them in our comments section. Or write to us at: TTDSOnAir@gmail.com.``` Editor's notes: 1) The word Chris cannot remember this episode is "agency". 2) we apologize that our feature "Alex Simmons' Time Machine" did not appear this episode - Alex was too busy being FREAKING AWESOME! #roddydoyle #love #paddyclarkehahaha #thecommitments #WandaVision #Marvel #TimFielder #Infinitum #afrofuturism #Batman #Superman #Tarzan #Archie #ScoogyDoo #Orpheus #Blackjack #SherlockHolmes #BlackPanthertalesofwakanda #amwriting #heroiccharacters #amwritingfiction #writingtips #authortips

Stories & The Truth. Fact In Fiction and Does It Really Matter This week Alex and Chris talk about very current stuff, very ancient, stuff and some universal all time life and story themes. As they discuss how rewrites are going for Chris, update our views on Disney+‘s WandaVision (Alex finally saw episodes 1 to 3, Chris saw episode 4 - we talk about at all, sans spoilers). We also do a commercial for co-founder Tim Fielder’s INFINITUM, and then get down to business. We talk about the late 50s early 60s short film “All The Way Home“ which is about a black family potentially buying a house in a white neighborhood. Needless to say we reflect, sadly, how much has not changed, and how much has. We go deep, ladies and gents, so strap in and come along for the ride. And it all leads to an even deeper discussion of why we need to learn how to write and how to write well. Harder still, why we need to see our writing as others see it and do the research to get our stories right so we can get past the gate keepers and tell the damn story. So again we say ... Fact in fiction and does it really matter? Let us know what you think and we'll mention it on our next show. Have any comments or questions for this episode topics?

This episode we learn how Amanda Gorman made Chris cry and blubber and gosh with pride and praise and so much hope that Alex has it take control of the show for a while. After the river of tears ends we move on to discuss our new national poet laureate's impact on the inauguration, on our hearts, on our hopes, and in the textbooks of our children's future. Then Chris gushed again, this time about WandaVision episode 3 "now in color." He and Alex discuss how it deepens the plot and rewards patience, and really shows how Marvel is playing with house money and fan loyalty. We go over how they weave a story that fits in the Marvel canon that they could never have done early on. And one more topic is covered when we talk about about creating before the money is there, and after. Speaking of money Alex and Chris, after having fun with it themselves, pose interesting question about the recent billion dollar lotto prize. And they challenge you to answer it as well. What question? Give a listen and see. Holy smokes! We forgot one more thing! (Respects to "Uncle," from the Jackie Chan cartoon show.). Alex and Chris also celebrate the publishing release of TTDS co-founder Tim Fielder's INFINITUM, an impressive, masterwork graphic novel that takes us from ancient Africa to Afro-futuristic heights in a fascinating, engrossing tale. What's your answer to that question? Let us know and we'll mention it on our next show. Have any comments or questions for this episode topics? Then please leave them in our comments section.

This week, Alex and Chris present a Blackjack story created by Tim Fielder in the furious wake of Charlottesville, back in 2017. Fate worked against us publishing it at the time, and during each subsequent horrific racist tragedy. But George Floyd changed that. We can no longer let Tim's tale remain just among us. So we came up with a way to share this emotional, daring story. We tell its backstory, and then we present Blackjack: Only Seconds Left to Live as an unrehearsed audio experience. The tie-in to today will be obvious, and our discussion afterwards connects many elements that convinced us that now is the time to share this tale. And we have much more coming. So give a listen, then leave your thoughts in our comments section. Or write to us at: TTDSOnAir@gmail.com
