Summary
Kadie breaks down why the ”villain” story always seems to outlast the good ones. We rarely broadcast the kindness someone showed us, but the moment we feel wronged, that story gets told loud and often. This episode walks through the moment you get ”cast” in someone else’s narrative, the praise nobody repeats versus the grievance everybody does, and what actually gets revealed about a person once they’re wearing the villain costume. Plus, Kadie reveals her own villain name, and the Kuestion of the Week asks something most people would rather not answer out loud, do you ever think about all the stories you could be living in for other people, and does that bother you?
