"Our heroes aren’t what they used to be." Those lyrics from Comeback Kid’s False Idols Fall set the tone for this episode as we dive into what happens when the people we admire, be they artists, athletes, mentors, or public figures, fall short of our expectations. Can we separate the art from the artist? Should we? (Spoiler: I have strong feelings about that.)
Join me as we explore the complex emotions of idolization, disappointment, and forgiveness, along with stories that will make you rethink the way you see your heroes.
