More bad fanfiction stories: https://www.youtube.com/playli... When it comes to bad fanfiction, My Immortal is generally one of the first that people will bring up... And that's because this terrible fanfic is either a legitimate attempt at humor or the author's attempt at creating something meaningful. Both possibilities are equally terrifying. Poorly written Harry Potter fanfic is inbound! Buckle up!! It doesn't matter what your background is, you always need to treat people like people and not use them simply to get off. Neckbeards seem to learn this lesson particularly slow and it really does make my blood boil... So we must bring it to light so others don't suffer alone. For your fill of neckbeard stories we've got you covered with the freshest weeaboo, niceguy, and neckbeard happenings on reddit. Stick with ReddX for your daily dose of cringe with a side-dish of relatability. You might even feel good for dessert...

These neckbeard stories Top Posts of All Time from Reddit are made for you to enjoy any time you feel like it, so be sure to save my rSlash neckbeard stories playlist to your favorites! While there are many rslash channels that read r/neckbeard stories and r/prorevenge from reddit, each channel has their own way of performing them. Some of the top rSlash entitled parents channels I recommend checking out are the original rSlash, Redditor, fresh, r/Bumfries, VoiceyHere, Mr Reddit, Storytime and Darkfluff. These Reddit story channels inspired me to start my own Reddit story channel, with a focus on Entitled Parents stories and at times going into the r/pettyrevenge and r/choosingbeggars subreddit as well. Because most of my audience prefers Entitled Parents stories of Reddit, I tend to just stick with reading the r/EntitleParents Top Posts of All Time. But I also enjoy getting up close and personal with neckbeards and weeaboos from time to time. Subscribe to ReddX for the freshest daily Reddit content. I post relatable readings of Reddit posts and Reddit stories every single day! Journey with me as I relate these amazing Reddit stories to my personal life journey. I'm greatly inspired by the top reddit posts of all time videos and reddit stories on YouTube which is why I started doing them myself. YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channe...

She is here to join our cafeteria clique as we discuss the 2004 movie phenomenon Mean Girls, and how the worldwide fandom for this movie a) destroyed Lindsay Lohan, and b) shaped our own high school experiences to varying degrees.

We discuss the differences between American and British school culture, the 2000s cultural exports of the United States, and the continual cycle of Hollywood child sacrifices.

PHIL LESTER, YOU'RE A GENIUS! This week's episode is a little different. This week, Emily and V finally release an episode that has been sitting in our vault for over a year — not because it wasn't good, but because the universe pulled off one of the most chaotic, timeline‑breaking acts of accidental fandom trolling we've ever witnessed.We originally recorded this episode as a thoughtful, slightly exasperated look at Dan & Phil shipping culture — how two creators became the center of one of the internet's most enduring RPF fandoms, how fans blurred the lines between performance and reality, and why it's important to remember the fiction part of Real Person Fiction.We talked about boundaries.We talked about ethics.We talked about how there was no evidence of a real‑life romantic relationship.And then — about 24 hours later — Dan and Phil announced their relationship.Not only that: they announced they had been together since 2009.So not only did reality Joss our episode…It Jossed fifteen years of fandom history with one press release.We took a breath. We texted each other memes of Ben Affleck smoking on a balcony (you know the one), and then shelved the episode until it fit the calendar. And now — finally — it is time. Join 2025 TWIFH discussing 2014 Dan & Phil, and let 2026 you laugh at our misfortune.---SourcesFanloreThe Secrets of the SlashersAre Dan & Phil In a Relationship?

Hunters, get your salt! This week, V and Emily are joined by friend-of-the-pod Heidi Tandy, who calls in from San Diego Comic-Con 2026 to discuss the fandom that spells SDCC for her, and thousands of others in the fannish community: Supernatural. The premiere of the show on the WB (progenitor of The CW) in 2005 changed fandom permanently, in more ways than could possibly be discussed in one hour. But SPN also changed fandom for Heidi, personally, in ways big and small, and we're delighted to hear all about them from the room where it happened. We dish about LiveJournal's early rush to create communities, the prevalence of Wincest fanfiction, and how Supernatural's relationship to its fans evolved over its long run. Supernatural, like the other S-named fandoms before it (Star Trek, Star Wars, and Sherlock Holmes, natch) is a Fandom Of All Time.

Episode Notes We avoid talking about DS9 for even longer this time. Skip to 16:21 if you don't really care about our hosts' hyperfixations. Zathras was too tired to cut it down. Prodigal Daughter: Miles O'Brien, Private Eye. Ezri hasn't been home in a while. Manipulative parents. "He's got a Shaggy vibe." Awkward family dinners. This episode's mob stuff is disappointing. Emperor's New Cloak: Directed by LeVar Burton! Time for some Ferengi bullshit. How does the Great Exchequer work? We invent a religious schism. There's a mirror Ezri already? Excellent miming. Vic Fontaine is not a hologram? Fanfic resolved. Rom continues to be the GOAT. BabSpace9 is a production of the Okay, So network.

Aiyiyiyiyiyiyiyiyiiii! This week, Emily and V head back to the mid‑90s — the era of dial‑up internet and aggressively pointy shoulderpads — to revisit the rise of Xena: Warrior Princess. It's hard to overstate how much this show reshaped the fandom landscape: a morally complicated heroine, a narrative built on redemption… and a relationship between two women that sparked decades of essays, fanfic, fanvids, and lovingly chaotic forum debates. The Xenites weren't just early adopters of online fandom. They were architects of it. Come wander the hills of ancient Greece (New Zealand) with us as we look at how one warrior princess carved out a space that still echoes today.(Make sure you sign up for our newsletter to get some phenomenal Xena fic recs in tomorrow's edition!)SourcesThe History of Xena Fanfiction On the Internet by LunacyA Cyber History of the Online Xena Community: Part I -- September 1995 To June 1996How Xena: Warrior Princess Earned a Permanent Spot In Pop CulturePromoSuper Sorry - Have you ever watched a Marvel movie and thought, “Wow, somebody really owes somebody an apology?” Like Tony Stark and Steve Rogers in Civil War.

Absolute potato! This week, TWIFH is delighted to bring you a special preview of Femme & Furious, a new pod-friend and great listen for fans of fandom, and especially for listeners who liked our old behind-the-scenes pop culture rundown episodes for Patreon. In this episode, our friend Julia Portela looks with a feminist lens at five (secretly six) pieces of extremely current media: Obsession, The Drama, Odyssey, Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Sterling Point, and the novel Girl's Girl by Sonia Feldman. Julia is funny, smart, and definitely a fangirl. Listen to our #Gamergate episode over on her feed, too!---This week on Femme & Furious, we're breaking our own format because while it's technically a "Fast 5," we've got six properties on deck, because there was too much good pop culture to cover this month. Spoiler-free pitches up top for each one, then we go all the way in with spoilers, feminist analysis, and a few unhinged theories. What I'm covering: Obsession — the viral horror hit that outran Supergirl in theaters, the "man or the bear" discourse hiding in plain sight, and why Bear is absolutely a dog guy. The Drama — Zendaya and Robert Pattinson's wedding-week-gone-wrong dark comedy from Kristoffer Borgli, and the racial double standard baked into who gets forgiven for what. Odyssey — Christopher Nolan's mythic epic, the Emily Wilson feud, and a full breakdown of Circe, Calypso, Helen, Clytemnestra, and a theory about who Athena really is. Spider-Man: Brand New Day — Tom Holland's loneliest Peter Parker yet, the Frank Castle friendship that's carrying the movie, and a hard pass on that Little Caesars order. Sterling Point — Amazon's CW-coded YA drama, a love triangle the writing doesn't quite earn, and the most joyful period scene we've seen on TV ever. Girl's Girl by Sonia Feldman — one of my favorite books of the year, a queer coming-of-age story about girlhood, friendship, and phones as a silent second language.

Never enough! This week, V and Emily travel back to TWIFH's oldest historical event thus far: opera singer Jenny Lind's landmark 1850 tour in the United States and its accompanying “Lindmania.” Did you know that the fangirls of 1850 were Just Like Us? They sobbed, they squeed, they schemed to meet their faves, and they spent way, WAY too much on concert tickets. The quotes from antebellum Lind fans reacting to hearing secular music for the first time give us the chills. Come wait outside the stage doors with us for a glimpse at the Swedish Nightingale.SourcesListening & Longing: Music Lovers in the Age of Barnum by Daniel Cavicchi"Fandom Before 'Fan'" by Daniel CavicchiWikipediaMassachusetts Historical SocietyPromoSuper Sorry - Have you ever watched a Marvel movie and thought, "Wow, somebody really owes somebody an apology?"

Re: Dracula is a faithful, text-accurate adaptation, featuring a full cast to tug on your heartstrings and sound design to keep you on the edge of your seat.Two Thousand and Late - TWO THOUSAND AND LATE is a new fiction podcast from the creator of ​​The Bright Sessions - a dark comedy that grapples with the havoc of our current moment and tries to find the hope inside of it. In the 10-episode first season, we follow Harper, a thirty-six year old nihilist whose life is upended when she's possessed by a demon hell-bent on bringing about the apocalypse. Harper doesn't want to end the world, but the demon gives her more power than she's had in her life in a long time. In a world where so many people abuse their power, will Harper be any different? Blending sharp satire with genre flair and wickedly lovable antiheroes, Two Thousand and Late is ideal for fans of Fleabag, Killing Eve, The Craft, Jennifer's Body, Yellowjackets, True Blood, and Venom. It's a potent cocktail of feminist rage, queer power, and supernatural mischief. It's unapologetically angry, surprisingly tender, and deeply entertaining.

No pithy exclamation this week, because we are too angry. While #Gamergate easily warrants an entire long-form investigative podcast all on its own, Emily did a fantastic job condensing it down to one infuriating hour for V. We look at both the surface and underlying reasons behind the reactionary far-right gamer movement, as well as its continuing fallout and the ways that it has irrevocably changed the entire modern world. For the worse. It's a bummer episode, folks. (Head over to the new CONstruction if you want an uplift after listening!)On a happier note, we're starting a newsletter!

What happened to your shirt?! This week, V and Emily indulge in talking about one of their favorite MCU films -- and the most handsome star of the Marvel Cinematic Universe -- Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, and its star, Simu Liu. Did you know that this film/character does not even have a Fanlore page, which is a TRAVESTY? Listen as we make a case for everyone to hop on board the Shang-Chi train and start including Shang-Chi, Katy, and Xialing in their fanworks before Doomsday comes to doom us all.

Two can keep a secret if one of them is dead! This week, TWIFH is delighted to bring you a special preview episode of Lez Hang Out, the #1 lesbian hangout podcast and a super-fun listen for fans of fandom. Our good friend -- and CONstruction co-host, @jarrow from TGIF/F! -- is their expert guest on this episode, a deep dive into the batshittery of Pretty Little Liars. Check out what they have to say, and listen to our episode over on the Lez Hang Out feed, too!---This week, Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) hang out with return guest and founder of TGI Femslash, John Arrow (@jarrow272), to talk about the 7 season teen mystery drama, Pretty Little Liars, for this Lez-ssentials episode, a recurring segment on the essential movies and TV shows in the lesbian canon. Come with us on a journey back to 2010, when television seasons were 26 episodes long and showrunners were just starting to figure out how to harness the power of social media to engage with fandoms in a big way. Pretty Little Liars itself does not age all that well in many ways, especially in the treatment of their one and only trans character; but back in the 2010s it was actually considered pretty progressive for having several queer characters and a lesbian showrunner. If you were queer or questioning in the early aughts you 1000% knew about Shay Mitchell as sporty lesbian Emily Fields who seemingly turned every woman within a 5 mile radius of her gay. If you are a lesbian of a certain age, Emily likely played a role in your own coming out journey too.For those of you who were part of the #BooRadleyVanCullen (like Leigh), you may recall more of the social fandom experience than you do the plot. Before Twitter became the cesspool it is today, there were the golden days of weekly live tweeted episodes of PLL with the cast members, the showrunner and the writers. The extremely unhinged plot made it the perfect group-viewing show and we highly recommend that if you have never watched PLL, you watch with a friend or three. While we do talk about a lot of the major plot points, the whole series is just too convoluted for us to really spoil anything for you. Even hardcore fans like John find something new in each rewatch. At the end of the episode, stick around to hear our original song based on PLL, titled “A Liar”, written by Leigh Holmes Foster and produced by Ellie Brigida.

#StreamBTSDynamiteNewSong! This week, V and Emily head back to the days of quarantine to look at an event that is... sigh. It showcases the culture differences between pre-2020 fandom and post-2020 fandom, Twitter fandom and the lineage of Livejournal-originated fandom, and corporate internet versus free internet. When fans take it upon themselves to become de facto employees for their blorbos, are they still acting out of fandom or does it become purely parasocial? Is there a difference? What is the line between self-interested fandom and selfish fandom? Plus, why -- yet again -- AO3 is different from other sites, and why those differences matter. We're very nervous putting this episode out. We've been told repeatedly not to cover BTS or we'll get yelled at.

Mailbags, Choose Your Own Adventure Streams, 280 Mysteries and more! https://patreon.com/372pages Just a few of the ideas this book attempts to tackle: An omnipotent entity transmitted to human beings by a fox. Eternal daylight. Tilting the axis of planet earth, i.e., eternal summer. A new Jewish state. Global price controls. Harvesting precious metals from the sun. Plywood. Purchased with help from butlers named Arthur. It’s nearly impossible to describe the insanity contained in this thing. It’s madness wrapped in delusion surround by lunacy. But somehow Mike still struggles with Real or Fanfic. READING ASSIGNMENT: Finish the book!

Sometimes an SVU really does the racism. Then there's S7E6 Raw, which for an unfathomable 20:51 unfurls bigotry at an astonishing rate--an average of once every 23 seconds. And it doesn't even start until past the 16-minute mark. They pack so much hate into this episode that it left Adam and Josh dumbfounded.We've also got Marcia Gay Harden back which means: a) bodies will drop, b) Stabler will get hurt, and c) maximum Foghorn Leghorning. This episode does the racism with such reckless abandon that you'd be hard-pressed to come up with an episode of television (network or cable, frankly) that did it more. Hold onto your butts, everyone.

Throughout the Draculae miniseries, about the Swedish and Icelandic translations of Dracula that played fast and loose with the original text, I've been wondering a couple of questions: why are cover versions of songs and remakes of films so normal and acceptable, whereas cover versions in book form cause such a stir? And do these Scandinavian Draculae count as fan fiction? And if not, why not? Fansplaining.com's Elizabeth Minkel explains what fan fiction can mean.Visit theallusionist.org/transformation for more information plus a transcript of the episode. And though this is the fourth and last part of the Draculae miniseries, it is more inspired by than directly connected to the other episodes, so you don't have to listen to them beforehand.

Before AO3, before fanfic was mainstream, there was McSpirk. This week, Maxwell Warp beams aboard Hailing Frequencies Open to take us deep into the fascinating history of Kirk/Spock/McCoy fan fiction and fandom culture. From mimeographed zines to convention hall whispers, we explore how one of Star Trek's most enduring fan-created relationships helped shape modern fandom as we know it. It's nerdy, spicy, surprisingly academic, and 100% Star Trek. Engage. Support us: https://ko-fi.com/hailingfreqopen

In this episode, Lauren successfully cons Matt into talking about fanfiction again. This time we explore the recent shift in the way traditional publishing approaches fanfiction, and the new trend of openly acquiring popular fanfiction like Manacled and All the Young Dudes. Learn more about the legality of publishing fanfiction, how these practices have changed in the last few years, and what we think this says about the future of the publishing industry. Listen wherever you get your podcasts, or watch the video episode on YouTube!Dive Deeper

Over the course of our latest season, we've become friends with a vampire, hung out with baby Geralt, read a book by a bard, savored some fish soup, took a detour into Shondaland, drunk whiskey from a gargoyle and barely survived an encounter with 99 Bananas. Together, we've made some great memories (while destroying a few brain cells), but sadly, it's time to say goodbye as our season has reached its end. But before we head off down the path, we're stopping for one final look at The Witcher's fourth season. What did we like and what did we not care for? What surprised us and what do we expect to see in season five? We each pick our favorite and least favorite costumes, songs, whiskeys and episodes (you'll never guess which one made both lists) and choose a Kaer Moron for the season, all while enjoying three of our favorite recent bourbons. The bar may be closing for the night, but first we're breaking out the good stuff. Care to join us for one more round?

On this week's main episode, the hosts of Mind the Tags Podcast, Emily and Vee, join Erin to discuss the world of M/M slash fanfiction. They talk about reading fics, writing fics, and why women love M/M slash.

Dearest gentle listener, on this first day of April, it is this author's sincerest pleasure to welcome you once again to the noble kingdom of Shondaland for an afternoon of…particularly strong tea and lively conversation. Our subject this week? Why none other than the latest events concerning the Bridgerton household, particularly the recent gossip surrounding second son Benedict and his new wife. Our guest of honor for this truly once—er, twice-in-a-lifetime event is none other than our dear friend and patron, the Viscountess Lucy J Robyn of the noble households of YouTube and Twitch. We hope you will enjoy the proceedings, but do heed this most delicate of warnings: those arriving in hope of familiarizing themselves with the recent exploits of that infamous rake Geralt of Rivia may find themselves in unfamiliar company. Should that prove to be you, we suggest simply asking your server to make your tea a “double.” Just ensure you do not do this so often that you besmirch your standing in society. Poor decisions like that are, as they say, best left up to us. Keep up with Lucy by following her on Twitch, Youtube, Twitter and Instagram at @lucyjrobyn.

Is fanfiction mainstream now?If you are anywhere near fan spaces online, you've probably seen people talking about fanfiction. And it's also behind some of the biggest books of the last decade – some of the publishing industry's greatest hits are fanfic adaptations. But even as fanfic seeps into the mainstream, there's a battle inside fanfic communities over whether it should be kept private – and a larger culture war brewing over what gets published and who's reading it. Brittany gets into the gendered, economic, and cultural forces pushing fanfiction to the fore with Ashley Reese, writer, cultural commentator and fanfic veteran, and Eli Cugini, culture writer, Ph.D. student and author of a Defector article called “Fanfiction's Total Cultural Victory.”Want to hear more about the state of literacy?

We're back to the beloved Pick Five format this week, folks! This time we're each picking notable guest appearances...or is it guest vocals? Or both? Listen to find out as we discuss duets, reunions, styles clashes, and more. 

This week, we're side questing into the world of It's Not a Cult, the new novel written by our favorite on-screen bard, Joey Batey. Since books are better with booze, the whiskey flows generously as we unpack everything the novel has to say about obsessive fandom, mob behavior, found families, experiencing life through screens and ice lollies (though we may need your help with that last one). We also tackle the tough, yet impossible to ignore questions: How much of this book is meant to be reflective of Joey's life? What's up with the ending? And why the heck isn't this thing available in the United States? Don't look for clear answers…or anything clear, really. But we do reveal the one thing the ridiculously multi-talented Joey Batey can't yet do. So take that, Bard!

The age falsification database is live—and it confirms what many suspected: this wasn't isolated, it was systemic. We break down what the data shows, why it matters, and how it reshapes gymnastics history. Plus, gymnasts speak out amid civil rights concerns, Oklahoma overtakes Florida for the #1 ranking, LSU breaks 198, and we unpack the most controversial judging moments of Week 4—including bars-gate and that Alabama vs Missouri finish.

Part Three: Robert tells David about Ziz's glorious plan to take to the sea and sever the right and left brains of her followers in order to make them psychopaths god that sentence was weird to write trust us the episode is weirder. Part Four: Robert concludes the story of the Zizians with a spree of horrific violent crimes and deaths, culminating in a shoot out with the Border Patrol in Vermont of all places.

Part One: Earlier this year a Border Patrol officer was killed in a shoot-out with people who have been described as members of a trans vegan AI death cult. But who are the Zizians, really? Robert sits down with David Gborie to trace their development, from part of the Bay Area Rationalist subculture to killers. Part Two: Robert tells David Gborie about the early life of Ziz LaSota, a bright young girl from Alaska who came to the Bay Area with dreams of saving the cosmos or destroying it, all based on her obsession with Rationalist blogs and fanfic.
