(Gently) Taking Authors To Task - darali_starscream’s Double Booked

Idling In The Impala: A Supernatural Podcast

Sandra and Kasey were excited to welcome back BJ, darali_starscream on AO3, to talk about her current in-progress/posted work, Double Booked.

The Sam/Reader/Dean fic summary on AO3 reads: “A non-chronological log of various encounters, incidents, and exchanges of things. Mostly kinky. Mind the tags please.”

This brief summary doesn’t even begin to scratch the surface of the themes and characterizations lying in wait for a reader to uncover under mind-blowing smut. It’s blown up on AO3 with over 17,000 hits at the time of recording. It seemed like a great time to gently take this author to task. Luckily, BJ agreed.

Our podcast occasionally incorporates brief excerpts from the CW television show "Supernatural" for purposes of transformative commentary and analysis. We believe this use falls under the Fair Use doctrine codified in Section 107 of the United States Copyright Act. The included clips are short, constituting only a miniscule portion of the original work, and serve to illustrate specific points within our critical commentary. Our podcast does not compete with the show's market. We believe this use promotes public discourse and understanding of the work, ultimately strengthening its cultural significance.
