What Patrick Stewart Taught Us About True Friendship, The Arts and Love.

Sir Patrick Stewart Tribute: Remembering the legendary actor behind Professor Charles Xavier in X-Men and Captain Jean-Luc Picard in Star Trek. Following Patrick Stewart's death at 86, Aaron and Brash celebrate his remarkable career, his friendship with Sir Ian McKellen, and the lessons his most beloved characters taught us.

From Professor X's compassion in X-Men, Days of Future Past and Logan to Captain Picard's wisdom and leadership in Star Trek: The Next Generation, we explore why Stewart became such an important figure in our favourite fandoms. We also revisit Excalibur, his incredible acting range and his upcoming appearance in Avengers: Doomsday.

Most importantly, we discuss how his friendship with Ian McKellen showed us what genuine male friendship, affection and vulnerability can look like.
