The Emergence of the "Victim's Journey" in Pop Cullture w/ Remso W. Martinez
In this week's flagship episode, Lions of Liberty Patron and Sponsor Zach of Lorenzotti Italy takes over and tasks Marc with a show about how we can get the ideas of liberty further embedded into the culture. Accordingly Marc called on his partner in comic book crime, his co-host on the Second Print Comics podcast as well as author and expert digital marketer, Remso W. Martinez!
Marc and Remso discuss politics in culture, how they have approached inserting their own political philosophies into their decidedly non-political cultural ventures, and how they have both approached the ideas when on platforms with more mainstream figures who are not libertarians, such as Sam Seder and Ben Stein. They look at how major comic book companies in particular have embraced "woke" culture, and analyze the "Victim's Journey" - the trend that has seemingly been replacing the "Hero's Journey" in many pop culture elements by elevating female or minority characters not due to their own heroic acts, but their portrayal as a victim of cultural prejudices. This is fun conversation between two expert ramblers, so enjoy hearing us ROAR!
Listen to Marc and Remso each and every Wednesday on the Second Print Comics Podcast!
