When Fandom Goes Wrong - I'm a Fan of That!

What this episode covers

Inspired by our own files going wrong, we decided to do an episode all on when fandom goes wrong. We focus a lot on the happy postive sides of fandom, but sometimes our subjects of interest go wrong and we have to grapple with what we do with what we're left with. Especially with all these items we have. We talk about She Who Must Not Be Named, touch (very lightly) on the allegations around Neil Gaiman, and also talk about Rooster Teeth, a previous fandom of Vivian's which had gone very very wrong.Our SocialsVivian's InstagramHolly's InstagramThe Pod's InstagramBuy Our Books!Buy Holly's Book!Preorder Vivian's Book!Fan Of That is now on Patreon!Go support us over there!Music for this episode was Nowhere Land by Kevin MacLead Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0This episode was produced by Vivian Asimos and Holly Swinyard Hosted on Acast.
