In this episode, Stauney and Sadie dive into the unstoppable force that is fangirls—their influence, their impact, and their ability to shake entire industries. While often dismissed as overly emotional or obsessive, these fans have proven time and time again that their passion holds real power, from crashing Ticketmaster and reviving canceled TV shows to demanding change in music and media.
We explore key moments in fan history, including how Beyoncé's country music era sparked a cultural conversation, the organized movements that resurrected beloved series, and the collective action that’s changed the way artists tour, movies are made, and music is released. Whether they’re mobilizing online or screaming in stadiums, these fans aren’t just spectators—they’re the architects of modern pop culture.
Join us as we celebrate the fandoms that won’t take no for an answer, the movements they’ve built, and why underestimating a passionate fanbase is always a mistake.
