Last Episode’s Famous Last Words

What did we have to say before doing the preparation for this week’s episode?

G: < Abstained >

T: Why do people enjoy watching bad wrestling?

Z: Wrestlers are pretty great show people, performing for the back of the room… have there been wrestlers that were not fans before they got into it (or ever during)? Is every pro-wrestler a fan?

Main Discussion

Topics covered in this episode: TBD

Famous Last Words

Our chance (and yours, if you’re watching on twitch.tv/thenickscast) to have some (in)famous last words about next week’s topic before we’ve done any prep work! Next week, we’ll be talking about the fans and fandom of M.A.S.H.!

T: Is this another fandom that is going to die out? Is the fandom still alive?

G: Would fans like to see M.A.S.H. rebooted?

Z: When the show was running, how did fans get together?
