"You Can't Tell A Good Story Without Bad Guys" (Bradley Onishi and Daniel Miller; Straight White American Jesus podcast) It's in the Code ep 175

Josh Hawley offers us a story about men, masculinity, and American society. 

But his patriarchal vision, with its appeals to Rome and medieval Christendom, is not a popular story—it's not a story that most Americans are eager to hear.

He does it the same way other storytellers might—he creates antagonists that an audience will hate and fear. Check out this week's episode to hear more.
