Episode Twenty-Eight | The Consequence Culture of Fandom

Hello fellow fanboys and fangirls. In the world of fandom, this week had some highs & lows. Adam Lance Garcia joins FANGIRL FORUM for an unplanned yet necessary discussion about recent news regarding Joss Whedon and Gina Carano; we also talk about how we as fans respond & engage in the tension while finding hope in the midst of darkness. On a lighter note, Adam & I review the first half of WandaVision. Plus, Adam gives a crash course in Doctor Who 101 for a first-time viewer and shares his latest prank on YouTube's Patrick H. Willems. Stick with the heavy discussion and find the hope: listen now! **Disclaimer: When the recording finished, it was announced minutes later that Gina Carano is no longer employed by Lucasfilm. In a statement made: "Gina Carano is not currently employed by Lucasfilm and there are no plans for her to be in the future. Nevertheless, her social media posts denigrating people based on their cultural and religious identities are abhorrent and unacceptable.” ***This episode only scratches the deep rooted problems in entertainment industry and the world around us. FANGIRL FORUM doesn't have the answers nor claims to have everything figured out in this episode, but I think having this conversation is a step in the right direction. The work is far from done, and there was/is so much more to be heard, taught, & shared.
