What does real heroism look like?
Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and filmmaker Alan Seawright are reacting to the person who put the “glad” in “gladiator,” Hercules! They talk about the psychology behind the classic hero’s journey and why we always come back to those stories. Jonathan explains how Hercules and other heroes are just like us, and Alan talks about how a good character story doesn’t focus on what a character wants but what they need.
