Episode 222: Ask Fansplaining Anything: Part 19
Flourish’s final “Ask Fansplaining Anything” episode follows the format of the previous 18 (!!), with a new batch of (thoughtful as ever!) listener letters and voicemails. Topics discussed include people bringing a prior adaptation’s fandom baggage to a new version, writing RPF about people who aren’t actually famous at all, the tropification of fanfiction, and whether multiple versions of a character can feel true simultaneously.
It's totally wild to me that we've been able to do 19 of these in the past ~5 years—not to mention the many listener letters/voicemails that have prompted entire episodes, or the ones we've read during non-AFAs. We truly have the smartest, most thoughtful listeners. 😭
