Wait, Josh is doing this one solo? Uh-oh. Don't worry he will try his best at this one.

Join Josh on this episode as he presents his thoughts on Porco Rosso, a classic Studio Ghibli masterpiece that delves into themes of redemption, forgiveness, and community.

We follow the journey of Marco, a World War I flying ace cursed with the appearance of a pig, as he navigates guilt, regret, and the power of second chances. Through poignant interactions with characters like Fio, Marco learns the transformative nature of forgiveness and the importance of community support in overcoming challenges. As we soar through the skies with Marco, we are reminded of the enduring lessons of self-acceptance, resilience, and the true measure of heroism hidden beneath external appearances.
