 Join host Alex Calder as she explores why we're so captivated by heist stories and the gentleman thief archetype. This deep dive examines how cinema built the mythology of the perfect crime—from Cary Grant in "To Catch a Thief" to Ocean's Eleven and Lupin—and why we root for thieves when they target wealth and power. Discover the gap between Hollywood's elegant heists and messy reality, explore why competence and control are so seductive in our chaotic world, and understand how these stories let us fantasize about rebellion without guilt. Alex unpacks the class dynamics, moral paradoxes, and performance art elements that make stealing beauty feel like genius rather than crime. This AI-generated episode offers a fresh perspective on how we mythologize transgression, celebrate impossible plans executed perfectly, and why the fantasy of beating an unbeatable system never gets old.
