My Other Podcast Is...

Enjoying the show? Support it here.

I recently discovered This Week in Fandom History, a podcast exploring the history of fandom, internet culture and the communities that grow around the things people love. It felt like such a natural fit for the Artifacts audience that I wanted to introduce you to the show properly.

For this bonus episode, they've put together a special 10-minute cut of one of their recent episodes.

A quick heads-up: this episode contains some adult language, which is natural to This Week in Fandom History but a little different from what you'll normally hear on Artifacts.

If you enjoy it, be sure to check out the full show and its back catalogue.

Hey there, I'm Danny Brown, and welcome to 5 Random Questions! If you love spontaneous conversations, unexpected laughs, and a bit of heartfelt wisdom, then this is the show for you.

Each week I sit down with my special guest and ask them five completely random questions generated on the spot by my random question generator. The guest has no idea what the questions will be, and neither do I. No topic is off-limits, and you never know where the conversation will take us!

Expect a mix of humour, unexpected wisdom, and a whole lot of fun as we dive into answers that can range from the utterly hilarious to the surprisingly profound. But that’s not all! At the end of each episode, my guests get to turn the tables and ask me any random question they like to give me a taste of my own medicine.

So, if you're looking for a good laugh, some unexpected wisdom, or just an entertaining chat, join me every Thursday on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. Don’t forget to subscribe and leave a review – I’d love to hear your thoughts! 

I'm looking forward to welcoming you to 5 Random Questions, where every question is an adventure. See you there!
