Your Hosts: Brandon, Mary, Amal, and Maurice
An external conflict is a story driver that originates outside the protagonist. In this episode a large part of what we’ll focus on is person-vs-environment as opposed to person-vs-person. PvE rather than PvP, if you will.
Credits: This episode was recorded by Andrew Twiss, and mastered by Alex Jackson, both of whom understand that environmental noise is a key external conflict driving their narratives.

“Break Things” – start the character’s story, and then have things begin going wrong. Don’t fix any of it. Just keep making things worse.
