Fan Fiction! You might know it, you might have written it, and you might have no idea what it is, but there’s a good chance it’s touched your life somehow. This episode, we welcomed our friend Katherine, a long-time fan fiction fan and Bad Philosophy Certified Guest Expert®, to help us unpack this juicy topic. We had so much incredible discussion that we decided to break our rule and go a Feature Length 90 minutes! Enjoy, everyone…
[Production Note: I must apologize for the 4-month delay in releasing this show. I have been traveling in Europe as part of a major life transition that began a few days after we recorded this episode, and that’s thrown a heck of a wrench into my capacities to edit and release the show. But that doesn’t mean we’re over! Just means it might take longer to get new shows posted… a lot longer. Please listen to the forthcoming Rule Set Update E episode for more.]
