With every story, there is what's called an "Inciting Moment." It's an event that occurs that jump starts a characters journey or serves as the root cause of a story's conflict. The Inciting Moment is a podcast consisting of like minded individuals that discuss films, video games, and just about anything that can be argued to have an inciting moment. New episodes are released bi-weekly on Fridays and each member of the podcast takes turns recommending a new film to discuss. The following film is announced at the end of every episode so listeners can tune into the conversation as well.
