About this episode
It’s ye ole race episode – we talk to two BIPOC fandom creators about how to navigate race on the internet! What do you do when people assume you’re white online? What happens when the thing you’re a fan of constantly pulls racist shit? What responsibility do fans have to correct creators' mistakes? We talk about all of that and more, but also, Isabel somehow manages to inject the BTS McDonald’s meal and Doritos into the conversation.
