Fantasy author and excellent human Paige L. Christie joins us for a deep-dive discussion about the responsibilities we all have to each other as fans, creators, and people. We all love the things we love in science fiction, fantasy, horror, comics, anime, etc., and we all want our experiences in fandom circles to be meaningful, fun, and safe. What do we owe to each other in order to make that happen? We'll talk about it. Also... pencils. TICONDEROGA 4LYFE!

On Friday, August 28, 2020, fandom lost one of its brightest stars. We sat down to remember and celebrate the life and work of Chadwick Boseman, who inspired the entire world through his talent, charisma, work ethic, and kindness, both on and off the screen. From playing Jackie Robinson to Thurgood Marshall to James Brown to King T'Challa/Black Panther, he showed us what heroes look like, and for that he will be forever loved and remembered.

The art of science fiction and fantasy inspires us, amazes us, and fills us with the same sense of wonder that first made us fans of science fiction and fantasy. From our favorite book covers to RPGs to gaming cards to convention art shows, this genre wouldn't be the same without the artists who make it all look so fantastic. Today we dive deep into the world of fantasy & science fiction art with two of the greats: award-winning artists Amanda Makepeace and Charles Urbach. Enjoy!

SIDE NOTE: Do not anger the Art Gods. One of us apparently said something that upset them, and they did promptly smite us by having our recording platform drop Rob's audio during recording. Thanks to Allie for stepping in. Moral of the story: respect the Art Gods or BE SMOTEN!
