Rob Williams on 'Hidden Springs' and writing regret

About this episode

Rob Williams discusses his new series 'Hidden Springs' and the themes of writing regret and second chances.

On this week’s AIPT Comics Podcast, we’re joined by writer Rob Williams to talk all about Hidden Springs, his wild new series that blends retired Hollywood legends, a baby kaiju, and a desperate race against the military. It’s a fun, heartfelt conversation about building flawed characters, mixing comedy with tragedy, and why stories about second chances hit harder when everything’s on the line.
