Welcome to the all-new Just Enough Trope, the podcast where we explore the reasons that your favorite media is the way it is. From movies to TV shows to literature to video games, stories are often built around repeated elements and we're here to talk about them all!
Some are maybe magical schoolgirls, some may be hardened biker dudes, some may even be your typical cape-and-tights heroes. But we're all familiar with the type of protagonist that needs a magical item, a word of power, or a bit of magic to gain the strength to fight evil and/or crime. Strap on your leathers and get your motor runnin', 'cause we're tearing off into the world of "henshin heroes"!
OMG! Popeye is a henshin!

It doesn't matter if you don't know it...you do know it. The hidden musical cheat code that laces the foundations of hip-hop and R&B, the source code of popular music that could turn a flop into a #1 hit. Say your prayers 'cause this week we're talking about the Amen Break!
It's an inconvenient truth!

A spider-bite, a lightning strike, cosmic rays...why do so many of our comic book heroes get their start as accident victims? What role does tragedy and happenstance play in the forging of a champion? And how the hell does mongoose blood give you super-speed? Face front, true believers, 'cause we're tackling accidental origins!
Excelsior!

It's the world's oldest profession and surprisingly, one of it's oldest stock characters. But why is the cheery sex worker, a.k.a. the "hooker with a heart of gold", an archetype that movies, tv, and the stage return to again and again? And how do films like "Pretty Woman" and "Klute" support or smash our idea of the "working girl"? It's a tough job, but we gotta do it!
She's faking it 'til she makes it!

You've heard it...you just don't know it. It's the secret sauce of pop success, the splinter in Paul Anka's eye, the face that stares back from the mirror at every creatively blocked songwriter. It's "tonight", the word tat is in WAY more pop song choruses than you've ever considered. On this episode, we make it our mission to expose this musical malady and give you scientific reasons why it just keeps happening. "Tonight" dies tonight!
Cool!

In 2023, video games are more impressive than ever, they make billions of dollars, and they're played by people all over the world...so why are they so male and white? Every videogame protagonist looks like he'd have no trouble getting a business loan, even as more and more female developers and creators of color enter the industry. Is there just something about clapping on the downbeat that appeals to gamers or is there something more dangerous at work? Join us as we sift through a country club of bland protagonists to try and find out why game characters are all the same!
"Video Games" is the millennial "Free Bird"!

There is something decidely Japanese about the idea of a giant robot, whether it needs a little kid to control it, transforms into an impratical car, or can bring about the Biblical apocalypse. This week, we take an inventory of the great giant robot stories of anime, TV, and cartoons and ask the question, "Must there be crushing?"

Every single time that two superheroes meet...they have to fight. Every damn time. But why? Mistaken identity? Establishing dominance? Union rules? It's a phenomenon germane but not exclusive to comics, and the reasons for heroes squaring up can go way past their mothers having the same first name. This week, in addition to talking about the presence of this trope across all media, we're tackling the granddaddy superhero fight of all-time, the legendary and seminal "The Dark Knight Returns"!
Now we see the violence inherent in the system!

Time loops in media are scenarios where the protagonist is trapped in a day or place and sees the world round him resetting itself over and over again (and again). Sometimes it's a narrative about self-improvement, sometimes it's a fitting punishment, and sometimes it's just plain fun. We're here to identify the types of time loop stories, what they want to say, and to highlight one in particular: "Through the Flash" by author Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah.
Vampires are time-travelers!

On our inaugural episode, we're tackling one of the most recognizable tropes in recent cinematic history. Picture a man, ounumbered by foes, low on ammo, trapped in one location with his loved ones' lives in the balance, and maybe he needs a pair of shoes? Die Hard exploded onto the movie scene in the late 1980's and has been influencing the shape of the action film ever since. We're here to talk about all 5 Die Hard films, review the (possible?) first "Die Hard", and look at the ways in which Die Hard continues to remind us that good action movies are about stakes and vulnerability.
