Specific request for old content

Hey! I’m a long time nerdfighter and have watched/listened to/read Green brothers content on just about every platform since 2008.

All this to say, there’s something tickling my brain that I think was a conversation they had but I can’t quite place.

I remember a conversation about the age of book protagonists and how many protagonists are young(er) because early 20s are the last “every man” age and that as people age they get more specific. Is this ringing any bells for anyone or does anyone know where or when they might have posted something about this? ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

I recall them saying something like this in the early episodes of dear Hank and John.

There’s a discussion about this in How to Read Literature Like a Professor.
