172. Captain America and the Pursuit of Ideals

Always Hope

In this episode of the Always Hope Podcast, I explore the character of Sam Wilson as he takes up the mantle of Captain America in the new movie: Captain America: Brave New World. While the movie isn’t great, I love seeing a therapist turned into a superhero. I share insights about Sam Wilson desire to do the right thing even when it’s hard, the difficulty of reconciling ideals with reality, and the importance of putting communication over violence. Whether you're a fan of the Marvel universe or just love a good character analysis, this episode is for you!
