Pilot: Blanket Fort - Fandom for outsiders
Monday, 24 October 2011 12:57 pmHi again!
Welcome to the actual pilot of Fans in a Pod, the blanket fort edition! This is a much more successful attempt than last week, and a much shorter one too.
This week, we exchange short definitions of 'fandom' and dissect how they reflect our views on fandom itself, but also on the perception we expect from people who aren't fannish. We ponder the srs bsn versus the pleasure of squee, and Emef very nicely corrects Yue's horrible English pronunciation for your sake.
The theme of the day is FANDOM and our struggles to explain fandom to people who aren't fannish.

( Info and download under cut! )
Thank you for listening! Plans for next week's episode will be an Halloween/All Hallows special.
