In Episode 185, "RPF Revisited," Elizabeth and Flourish use a trio of listener letters to return to the perennially thorny topic of real person fiction. How does RPF fit into the broader fandom space in 2022? What does "canon" even mean when it comes to real people? How do fans reconcile with troubling new information about celebrities they've written and read about? And is RPF source material the same as fictional source material, or are there fundamental differences between the two?
