Nerds Assemble

Join Emily, Paul and special guest Casey Bourne as they delve into the world of fandom, tropes, genres, plot devices, ideas, erotica, romance, fanfic, original fiction, publishing, self-publishing, copyright law, lawsuits and just omegaverse in general. (Casey recently published her romance novel Pair Bonding, and it explores the idea of soul mates in a way both very familiar to fanfic readers and very new.) So, are you sitting comfortably?

Join Emily, Paul and Paul as they examine current trouble at the BBC with BBC4 rumoured to be under threat as the broadcaster looks to bolster its content for people under 30… by bringing back BBC 3 to broadcast television. This is a switch around from the situation in January 2015 where BBC3 was under threat from being shuttered and ended up being moved completely online. But can the BBC undo the damage done to BBC3 in the run up to 2015 and should BBC4 be sacrificed to make this happen? We discuss this and more in this week’s episode. So, are you sitting comfortably?
