Last week, the blog version of an episode of Christian Publishing Show went viral, or at least it sparked a lot of discussion. Mostly here and here. In that episode, I talked about how Morality is key to making a book sell across both culture and time. Muddled morality is why newer superhero movies are failing, where the films of the last decade sold like crazy. I had a lot more to say than that and you can listen to the episode here.





The guys at the Fantastical Truth Podcast wanted to talk to me about the topic. So you can think of this as a sequel episode where we give many more examples or morality in fiction and get deeper into the theology. You can find the blog version of the episode here.
