Welcome to Hero or Dick — the podcast where Kate and KJ dig into the strange, funny, and unforgettable corners of history, pop culture, and everything in between. Each episode, we take on famous (and infamous) figures, events, and ideas, breaking them down with humor, insight, and just enough irreverence to ask the question that matters: hero…or dick?


From legendary icons to the odd stories behind movies, music, and everyday life, we pull the threads that make people and moments extraordinary. Along the way, you’ll get Kate’s infamous Fast Five lists (and KJ forgetting his), personal anecdotes, and plenty of chances to weigh in with your own takes.


Ever wondered if a celebrated artist was secretly a scoundrel? Or if a movie villain actually had a point? We live in those gray areas — the messy, funny, human places where the line between hero and dick isn’t so clear.


Join us bi-weekly for deep dives, playful banter, and the kind of conversations that leave you laughing, thinking, and maybe a little surprised. Whether you’re here for the history, the pop culture, or just to see if Kate finally got her car back, Hero or Dick is your go-to podcast for stories that entertain as much as they reveal.

Write in with your suggestions, stories, or just a friendly hello at heroordick2023@gmail.com.


Subscribe today — because life, like our podcast, is never just black and white.


Thanks!

  • Hero or Dick - S4., Ep. 4 - The Chimp Whisperer, Jane Goodall
    Mar 25 2026

    Welcome to another episode of Hero or Dick! In this one, we talk about Jane Goodall, the outsider who changed how we see animals and, whether we like it or not, ourselves.

    Chimps don’t just climb and stare. They make tools, hunt, form alliances, and sometimes go to war.

    If you care about animals, climate, or how science actually works, this one’s for you.

    Thanks for listening!

  • Hero or Dick - S4., Ep. 3 - The Winter Olympics
    Feb 5 2026

    Welcome to another episode of Hero or Dick!

    This time around, we jump from local happenings (shout out to Alpena, MI!) to a fast, funny, and frank tour of the Winter Olympics: how the Games are organized, who gets to compete, what the sports actually demand, and why hosting can be both a pride play and a headache. Between curling rocks and ski suit controversies, we land on a simple verdict: the Games bring people together when we need it most.

    Thanks for your continued support!

  • Hero or Dick - S4., Ep. 2 - The Vanderbilts
    Jan 20 2026

    It starts with a borrowed $100, a stubborn teenager, and a ferry that never slept. From there, the Vanderbilt story runs fast—from Cornelius Vanderbilt’s ruthless rise through ferries, steamships, and railroads to the cultural institutions and monuments the family later built to soften the edges.

    We end where the money thins and the question sharpens: can libraries, opera houses, and grand estates ever balance out the damage done on the way up? Hero or Dick? The answer isn’t clean—and that tension may be the real legacy.

    Thanks, as always for listening!
