If you like DND might I suggest @rollforitpod?
I had so much fun on a lil side quest - 21 Mumps Street - with their season 1 cast.
'Twas extra special since it meant playing with my @Stereotyped_Pod co-host, Amy.
Ah the "Perfect Woman."
No need for a character arc, b/c she is - well - perfect. How else could the mediocre man in her life grow?
Check out Ep. 4 & 5 to hear how our fav super mom Elastigirl falls victim to this stereotype.
Know any other "Perfect Women?" Share em' below!

It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's...a super perfect woman & her mediocre husband? This week, Betsy & Amy take an in depth look at literal supermom, Elastigirl, & discuss the difference between writing stereotypes & writing relatable experience.
Ah, the Holy Grail. Usually a woman, this character never gets the chance to contribute to the story in any real way, other than stepping in as an object for a Very Important Man to obtain.
Check out Ep 1 to hear how Princess Buttercup falls prey to this unfortunate stereotype!
