Summary
Alex Schmidt is joined by comedians/writers Caitlin Gill and Alex Watt for a look at the surprising number of times movies, TV, and gaming gave heroic powers to the exact right person. They’ll explore stories of regular people who saved a life thanks to skills gained randomly from cartoons, sitcoms, ‘World Of Warcraft’, and more silly entertainment.
