Our guest is Brittany Drake, campaigns director for The Protego Foundation. Brittany talks about the foundation's creative campaigns such as getting vegan butter beer offered at the Harry Potter theme parks, a Game of Thrones inspired campaign encouraging vendors at fan conventions not to use wild animals as props for photos, and their latest campaign around the release of the movie sequel, Wicked For Good. Brittany and Hope go on to talk about the animal rights and vegan themes in numerous movies and televisions entertainment, unpacking the animal personhood vision of Wicked, the strong animal characters in The Wizard of Oz, disturbing animal eating parallels in Stargate Atlantis, and vegetarianism in Avatar: The Last Airbender.

Gem Of the Day (G.O.D.) about things we are willing to do for the kingdom

Host Meg Wolitzer presents two unconventional love stories, one classic, one contemporary, that avoid the usual tropes of “meet cute,” “opposites attract,” or “happily ever after” but are still engaging.  In “Love in the Slump,” by Evelyn Waugh, clueless upper-crust newlyweds are sent on a comic odyssey.  The reader is Jane Kaczmarek.  And Esther Yi's “Moon” explores something we often mistake for love—obsession--as a young woman is drawn farther and farther into K-Pop fandom. The story was selected by guest editor Min Jin Lee for Best American Short Stories 2023.  It's read by Hettienne Park.  And we hear Lee's and Park's thoughts about the story.

The Knicks pulled off an historic comeback in Game 4 of the NBA Finals, and it isn't the only sport riding the wave of renewed fan enthusiasm.

Former CFTC Chairman Gary Gensler led the agency when Congress passed the Dodd-Frank Act. Today, he argues that Congress did not intend to set the CFTC up as sole regulator of sports betting. Plus, President Trump issues a warning to Iran, and CNBC's Leslie Picker breaks down what investors should know ahead of the highly anticipated SpaceX IPO.   Dan Murphy - 03:03 Leslie Picker - 10:49 Gary Gensler - 17:16 George Pyne - 34:03 In this episode: Dan Murphy, @dan_murphy Leslie Picker, @LesliePicker Joe Kernen, @JoeSquawk Kelly Evans, @KellyCNBC Cameron Costa,  @CameronCostaNY Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Defraud fans and prosper? This week, Emily and V take yet another jaunt to a fan convention gone horribly awry, and once again, it's Star Trek and it's in Dallas. This time, the key ideas are leaking spinal fluid, nuclear-angry celebrity guests, the relative gullibility of us scifi nerds, and German diplomacy. Talk turns very real as we look at the pros and cons (no pun intended) of the mainstreaming of fandom when it comes to conventions, vendors, and supporting fellow fans, while trying to stay safe from online -- and in-person -- scam artists who see fandom not as a community of like-minded human beings, but a demographic ripe for making quick cash. Fandom has always been cringecool to us, and like Star Trek, we're just gonna keep coming back.

Last Call - Gene offers up some final thoughts on Robert Kraft & the Buffalo Bills news from mandatory mini camp.

Not every path leads ahead. Some lead to what was left behind, unfinished, to choices made before you knew what they would cost.When the past takes shape, it can do more than strike. It can catch in your throat, lock you in place, and turn memories into a battlefield all of their own. Echoes of the past can hurt as much as the future in front of you, but not every battle belongs to the blade, because being a hero can be measured by more than the mark you leave behind.When something lost is returned to the world, every step forward can clear the darkness that has lingered for far too long. But after becoming whoever was needed to survive, it can be hard to tell which version of yourself is guiding, and which one is guarding.---Support us on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/naturalsixJoin our Discord! https://discord.gg/HNV56DADnJFollow us on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/naturalsixFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/natural_sixFollow us on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@natural.sixLove lore?

June 6th reflects the anniversary of Tales from the Fandom. This episode also serves as the 10 year anniversary, as well as the birthday of our returning guest, Ali aka The.Ali.Way Recorded back in February, Ali returns after nearly 3 years since his first episode. Our conversation focuses all about Ali and his journey as a creator. In our first episode, Ali seemed to be right at the start of reaching that brass ring in the content creator space. We now reflect on the years since that release. From attending movie premieres, working/partnering with brands to create content and reviews for them, and more. Ali talks about his experiences with them, as well as growing as a person and brand, and evolving. From bounding and dancing, to opportunities with modeling and working and walking in Toronto Fashion week. Throughout this conversation, we talk about how Ali is bridging the gap of who he was 3 years ago to who he is now. We talk about how he focuses on making sure that each post he makes fit not just his brand, but also for his community. He talks about creating with intention, being his authentic self, and pushing himself to new opportunities and growth. Ali is one of those people I just love to see in my feed. To see his continued success and I am just so happy that we were able to get back together to celebrate him!

We are once again asking the 9-1-1 writers' room to be brave. Be bold. Be intentional.In this Fandom on the Rocks bonus episode, we're looking ahead to Season 10 of 9-1-1 and laying out our very reasonable, completely measured, not-at-all-unhinged wishlist for what we want from the next season.Some of these wishes are mild-mannered expectations. Some are pipe dreams. Some are pure crack. All of them are delivered with love, frustration, and the deep spiritual exhaustion of two people who are, frankly, tired Grandpa.An incomplete list (you have to listen to the episode for the full experience, obviously):Buddie canon, obviously — but as a choice, not a crisis. No more near-death experiences as romantic shortcuts. We want Buck and Eddie to choose each other because they have already built the life, the family, the trust, and the deeply suspicious platonic marriage.The bottle episode agenda — two couches, a kitchen table, the firehouse, and people actually talking to each other. CPR recertification? Station inspection? Power outage? We don't care. Lock them in and let the character work happen.A wildfire that actually means something — Los Angeles is their home. Let the big disaster be about the community they serve, not just another round of “how can we almost kill the 118 this time?” Also, yes, burn down South Bedford and make Eddie move in with Buck. We said what we said.Group hang for joy — not a funeral, not a wedding, not a hospital, not a crisis. Give us a barbecue, a beach day, a game night, karaoke, softball, something. This show talks about found family all the time. Let us actually see the family.Emergency lightning round — influencer immersive experience gone wrong, wellness retreat horrors, science fair explosions, cruise ship dock chaos, revisiting elevator trauma with consequences, and a CPR training cold open where everyone roasts each other's compression technique. Because silly emergencies are fun.And, because we are us, we also discuss crop tops (obviously), drag brunch, Christopher needing an actual storyline, May and Ravi's developing romance, Maddie and Chimney in their leadership roles, Eddie Diaz as a queer-coded man written so loudly we are all begging the show to notice, and why Season 10 desperately needs one thing above all else: Intentionality.Show us the storyboard. Show us the wall. Know where these characters are going when you start writing. Let big things mean something. Let the emotional arcs actually arc. We are paying adult money to watch this show. Give us the goods.As always, we complain because we love this show. We want 9-1-1 to be the best version of itself, and we want Season 10 to remember that the show is strongest when the emergencies are wild, the characters are grounded, and the found family actually feels like a family.Drop your Season 10 wishlist in the comments. What are you manifesting? What are you begging for? And how many crop tops is too many crop tops? Trick question. The limit does not exist.xoxo,Fandom on the Rocks

Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber cover a packed hour of New York sports debates, starting with the pride and embarrassment that come with wearing conference championship gear after a team falls short. From Knicks Finals shirts to Mets pennant sweatshirts, Yankees World Series hats, and Giants NFC Championship gear, the conversation becomes a wider look at what fans celebrate, what they mock, and why context matters. The hour also gets into a creative Aaron Judge heckle, NBA flopping and Adam Silver's response, the Jets handling of Kenyon Sadiq injury update, and the Giants fallout around Jaxson Dart and Abdul Carter. Along the way, Evan and Tiki connect fan psychology, team drama, locker room perception, and even the butt fumble into one broad question about how sports moments live on after the game ends.
