Jon would like to thank Robin for her support and time in conducting this interview.

It has been 10 years since the online harrassment campaign Gamergate targeted female game developers and oozed from dark corners of the internet into mainstream media. What started as a subculture war has become a full-scale culture war influencing major aspects of our lives today. Jon and Robin check in to see where the major players on both sides are now.

The world of professional wrestling is teeming with infighting, superfans, questionable lore, and over the top drama- both real and carefully choreographed. Jon and Robin discuss a few high and low points across decades. Don't know what "kayfabe" means? Here's your chance to find out! (Apologies for the delayed epsiode. Robin has been wrestling with some health issues but is back better, faster, stronger.)

July 2017, the Bluff City was rocked by an absurd scandal that started with a Google Plus review and ended with a delightfully restrained troll Facebook page. Despite a national spotlight on this local scuffle, too many people are still in the dark about Buttholegate. Join Robin and Jon as they celebrate the anniversary of an online battle that can only be described as Memphis AF.

May is both Mental Health Awareness month and Brain Tumor Awareness month. The amazing Shannon Taylor joins Jon and Robin to discuss her experiences, her book, and her fandom! (Spoiler alert: It's Supernatural, and she got Robin hooked.)

You can find Shannon's book- Sucks About Your Brain Tumor- on Amazon.com. All proceeds from the book go to the Epidermoid Brain Tumor Society.

In honor of Mother's Day, Robin spent some quality time with her daugher discussing the unexpected profundity of a universe populated with alien robots in disguise. She also discovered the Motherlode of Transformers online fandom beef and presented Jon with the story of Raksha, an OG G-1 fandom queen. (Please excuse the couple of audio quirks as Robin ventured out on her own without her genius producer and sound engineer for part of this recording.)

For Earth Day, Robin and Jon reflect on the biggest threat to civilization as we know it. No, it's not climate change; it's women existing in action movies. Gross!

If you need more Patrick to get you through the day, check out this spooky episode of his podcast Swirl Talk 901. Sheena Barnett discusses ghosts- ghost tours, ghost sightings, and even a little ghost hunting. Robin is there, too, in her first ever podcast appearance. Take a peek into the expanding multi-verse of TJB Production Group. No special glasses required!

Jon and Robin are joined by Patrick from Swirl Talk 901 to discuss controversy in the Twilight franchise and fandom. Patrick loves Twilight; Robin does not. But they can always find common ground with things they can hate together.

In the second part of our first full episode, we talk to Jon's charming wife Becca, former Disney cast member and current Disney Adult. It's a mostly fun walk through the theme park from an insider's perspective.
