Q: Do you think Super Ant is truly a hero, given the toilet-stealing antics?

Super Ant
Q: Nathan, what inspired you to write about Super Ant and his adventures?

Self Driving Cars/The Birth of Soup

Q: Can you tell listeners who might not know what personification is?
Personification is giving human characteristics to something non-human, which Preston explains as a way to make Willow the Trumpet-playing cat feel relatable on stage.
