From the very first episode of this podcast, we've been discussing the intense personal relationships that can be created over the internet. The Klunatics exist because we have the technology to correspond over long distances with thousands of other people who appreciate the same things we do. But sometimes, those long distance friendships aren't enough. And for a lucky few, we've been able to meet in person. Today, we'll be telling stories of some of these meetings, and the fun that can be had when members of our group venture out of their homes, and comfort zones.

We're only a few episodes away from the end of the first season of The Klunatics Podcast. And there's a topic we've been tip-toeing around in most of our episodes: Found Family.

This week, we're doing something new. We gathered a group of Klunatics to have a round table discussion of TJ Klune's antagonists. Are they evil? Misunderstood? Are villains just the hero of their own story? Like most of the topics we discuss here on The Klunatics Podcast, the answers we come up with may surprise you. Featuring: Chealsea Verzwyvelt, Melissa Logan, Tanya Hess, Anji River, Dene Young, Susannah Frigo, and Michael Lesley A couple of warnings: There are some gentle spoilers for TJ Klune's books, so proceed with caution, and this conversation also contains a political joke, which we've left in despite the Klunatic rule banning political talk precisely because it is, in fact, a joke. The Klunatics Podcast is produced by Susannah Frigo, Luis Garcia, Angela Noll Mohn, Sita Rajasingham, Mia Sciberras, Jon Steiger, and Kirt Graves. This episode was written by Sita Rajasingham.

We were so incredibly lucky to have the costs of this podcast quickly covered by your generous support, but now we're asking for a different kind of support. As we consider whether to continue the podcast beyond this first batch of planned episodes, the most important metric we'll consider is whether people outside our little group are listening. Does it have appeal for casual or future fans of TJ Klune? And to that end, we have a favor to ask of you. Share this podcast with someone you know who isn't already a fan. Encourage them to listen to the episode that you enjoyed the most, and help them figure out how podcasts work if they've never listened to one before. And then have a conversation about what they liked, what they didn't get, and whether they'll listen again. And then let us know how it went. Send us an email at klunaticspodcast@gmail.com.

We were so incredibly lucky to have the costs of this podcast quickly covered by your generous support, but now we're asking for a different kind of support. As we consider whether to continue the podcast beyond this first batch of planned episodes, the most important metric we'll consider is whether people outside our little group are listening. Does it have appeal for casual or future fans of TJ Klune? And to that end, we have a favor to ask of you. Share this podcast with someone you know who isn't already a fan. Encourage them to listen to the episode that you enjoyed the most, and help them figure out how podcasts work if they've never listened to one before. And then have a conversation about what they liked, what they didn't get, and whether they'll listen again. And then let us know how it went. Send us an email at klunaticspodcast@gmail.com.
