Some people have luck. The rest of us have Plot Armor.
Life doesn’t come with a script, but if it did, you’d be the protagonist. Plot Armor is a podcast about the twists, turns, and plot holes that shape us—the setbacks that should’ve taken us out, but somehow, we made it through. Hosted by Meghan McTavish (founder of The Plotline©) this show dives into the unexpected moments that prove we’re all a little more protected than we think. Because if life is a story, you’re not just surviving it—you’re starring in it.
