540 – Character Banter

Just a couple of buddies giving each other a hard time, what fun! Unless one of them says something that goes too far, and now they look like a jerk to the audience. This is a balancing act writers must tackle: showing characters’ personality and friendship without stepping over a line. This is difficult in fiction and real life, but at least the former lets us plan ahead.

[Intro Music] Bunny: Hello, and welcome to another episode of the Mythcreant podcast. I’m Bunny, and with me today is… Oren: Oren. Bunny: And… Chris: Chris.  Bunny: It’s time to show off our deep and enduring friendship, you guys. I’m gonna be clever. I’m gonna be witty. You two suck and you smell bad, eh?  Chris: Oh, ha ha.  Oren: Snarky remark. Self-deprecating joke. Pop culture reference! Bunny, Chris: [Chuckle] Oren: I think I got this solved everybody. We figured it out.  Bunny: Can’t you tell what good friends we are? We’re the kind of friends who would never forget to write notes for this episode.  Chris: [Chuckles] Oren: We would not do that.  Chris, Oren: [Chuckle]  Bunny: Just as we would not stink and suck.  Chris: Look, I’m feeling very attacked right now. Bunny: [Laughs] Oren: Look, this isn’t an attack on you, Chris. This is an attack on anyone who happened to not make show notes for our episode on character banter. I don’t know who that is. I’m being very neutral here. I’m just lobbing attacks at everyone. We’ll see who it lands on.  Chris: Have you considered that actually the blank space where my notes should be is an artistic statement that is symbolic? Oren: Mmm. It could be that.

[Chuckles] Bunny: Avant-garde podcast. They’ll teach this in podcast class someday. Chris: [Laughs] They’ll make poor, poor students try to decipher its meaning, but the only right meaning will be what the teacher thinks. Oren: It’ll be great. Don’t worry about it.  Chris: The true American classic.  Bunny: They’ll be hunting through the archives for the fabled notes with the white space in them. It’s like the lost folio. Moving back to banter, from other episodes we’ve done on literary complaints.  Chris, Oren: [Chuckle] Bunny: The storytellers like banter. We write banter because it’s fun. It’s a good way to show character dynamics and what characters mean to each other and how close they are. It can build chemistry. Flirting, I would say, is a type of banter and it’s fun and humorous. It lifts up the dialogue and makes it amusing. I would say those are the main points of banter.  Oren: Hilariously, because of th...
