Episode 51: Hamlet - Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead
Monday Aug 26, 2019
Monday Aug 26, 2019
For our one-year anniversary, we indulge our theater-loving, literature nerd selves and dive into absurdism. Could Tom Stoppard’s renowned play actually be… fanfiction? Yes, obviously it is, but we discuss all the angles of that question before meandering through the text of the play in search of direction or meaning. It is an acceptable diversion on the road to our inevitable, incomprehensible deaths.

Episode 49: X-Files - Haunting Melody
Monday Aug 12, 2019
Monday Aug 12, 2019
Our first Fan-Q Award winner, from fandom stalwart Deb Walsh. Could it be that Fox Mulder’s sister… was abducted by aliens, exactly as it appeared that she was? The only way to be sure is to return to Mulder’s home island of Martha’s Vinyard, eat chicken pot pie, and forensically analyse an extremely grody old pillowcase.

A glasses switcheroo leads into a time-travelling adventure that aims to explain various oddities of the Smurfs setting. We go off on tangents musing about Smurf spores and whether the entire population of Smurf village are Squibs. The author wins a bet against their sibling, thus averting the Great Smurf Wars.
