Send us a Text Message.

Are you feeling the burn of fandom fatigue? Fear not, because this episode has got you covered! We're joined by the incredibly insightful podcaster (from queer Star Wars podcast, RuPalp's Podrace) and cultural critic Klaudia Amenábar, who's ready to help us navigate the world of passionate fandoms and the challenges of finding quality content. Together, we'll explore the art of storytelling, the issue of recycled content, and the potential for audience fatigue.

Get ready for a hilarious segment where we debate the "worst" fandoms between Star Trek and Star Wars, and dive into the complexities of fandom discourse. We'll also discuss our experiences with social media, fandom spaces, and how they've shaped our relationships and careers. Plus, Klaudia makes a case for how the best content is just usually from the same franchise.

Don't miss out on this intriguing discussion on fandoms where we ask the age-old question: when is too much of a good thing bad? Laugh along with us and Klaudia as we try to find out.

Also, shout out to illustrator Elana Delaney for our rad new cover art that she made for season three. Why yes, we are giving a nod to The Simple Life.

Don't forget to tune in on Sunday, June 25th, for our next mini-episode.
