Books are banned and movies are rated with the understanding that information, ideas, and narratives are occasionally dangerous. What responsibility, if any, do storytellers have to their audiences? Is it our job to inform, to educate, to preach? Or is it hubris to assume a narrative can influence people at all? Join us for discussion, friendly disagreement, and potential descent into an ethical quagmire from which we may not emerge unscathed.

This episode, recorded at NerdCon: Stories 2015, features Patrick Rothfuss, Paolo Bacigalupi, Lev Grossman, and Nalo Hopkinson.
