We debate a small perk turned big headache at a pizza shop, then zoom out to fan parodies, fair use, and why some fan projects elevate art while others drain it. Along the way we share a library field trip, a tense late-night safety call, and tease the cozy weirdness of Christmas ghost stories.

• employee discount loopholes and solidarity vs rebellion
• how one abuse creates rules that bind everyone
• safety triage when a teen fears being followed
• Team Four Star’s craft, limits of monetization, creative value
• lazy clip reposts vs real parody and editing
• mods, Mario Maker constraints, and respecting original intent
• AI scraping, fair use asymmetry, and ownership ethics
• giving oxygen to original creators with real feedback
• archives, maps, Power Nine awe, and why fandom still inspires
