The Value Of A Sympathetic Character

What do you do when the main character in a story is strange,
bizarre, and weird? So crazy listeners might tune out? One answer
is to find a sympathetic character, someone the audience can
relate to. Producer Ann Heppermann explains how Glynn Washington
was the perfect sympathetic character as the narrator of the
"Heaven's Gate" podcast, the series about the cult that committed
the largest mass suicide in the United States.
