410 A Brief History of Fandom

This week we're joined by special guest Flourish who helps Merelyn and MK explain 'the good ol'days' and why they were actually HORRIFYING but now fill old-school fandom with nostalgia. We're talking Zines, APAs, Usenet, BBS, LJ, the Pit, the Great Purge, and a million other things you'll have to look up on Fanlore afterwards. We even get Flourish to make the sound of a 14.4 dial up modem. It's serious. Get old school! Grab the episode, and then you should follow us on Twitter for even more inanity during the week.
