⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Help keep our podcast going by contributing to our Patreon! ⁠ Aphrodite, goddess of love and sex, took many lovers in the mythology. But perhaps the most important was Ares. They adored each other; they had many children together; they could not keep apart . Their relationship was (for the ancient Greeks) surprisingly…healthy? Today we talk all things Aphrodite with bestselling author Jennifer Saint: her relationship with Ares, her many other lovers, and what her story tells us about how the ancients viewed love and romance.

⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Help keep our podcast going by contributing to our Patreon! Due to changing marital laws (among other things), the late Roman Republic saw a rise in a certain kind of wealthy elite woman with more independence and power than her foremothers. These women were financially independent, highly educated, sexually liberated, and unafraid to seize the reins of power. One of those was a woman named Clodia. Daughter of the aristocratic Claudii, Clodia (and her brother Clodius) changed her name to reflect a more plebeian status. A fierce populist, she was vilified by Cicero even as she was the victim of a murder plot. And she was an unlikely champion of true democratic values. Join us as we discuss her fascinating life with author and biographer Douglas Boin—and explore what her life tells us about the state of the patriarchy then and now.    Sponsors and Advertising: This episode is sponsored by Taskrabbit.

Brooke Averick has gone on to accrue thousands of followers, host the podcast Brooke and Connor Make a Podcast, and is now a published author.

Welcome back to The Fangirl Archives with Jelly, the podcast where we go deeper into the stories, music, and cinematic universes that fandoms love. In this episode, Jelly dissects the extensive storyline of the BTS Universe, the cinematic world built across BTS's music videos, short films, webtoon comics, mobile games, and "The Notes" book series. With a storyline that goes far beyond pretty pictures and happy smiles, the BTS Universe (the BU) tells an extensive backstory for fictional characters that were originally introduced to promote new music. As the BU grew more complex, exploring themes of murder, death, suicide, friendship, and the anxiety of youth, BTS were able to express "the most beautiful moment in life" with more than just music. By using the concept of an alternate universe to expand on songs about pain, longing, and the idea that "youth is never coming back," the BU may have been the greatest creative choice for the heart of ARMY. Because of the sheer volume of content to explore, Jelly delivers a crash course on what the key details of the BU are about. As seven characters, Seokjin, Namjoon, Yoongi, Hoseok, Jimin, Taehyung, and Jungkook, move through the struggles of youth, how do time travel and time loops fit into their fictional story? And does a story really matter when the music is what you came for? Listen as Jelly explains the baseline of the BU and what the music means for the storyline BTS has created. Rating note: PG-13. Disclaimer: Any themes or storylines discussed are fictional, even if they resemble events in real life. Any BTS music referenced does not belong to liljellyproductions or Jelly.

Blake Johnston is joined by AFL and Port Adelaide legend Ryan Burton for Day 3 of the Randwick Carnival. One Group 1 on the card — but we're hunting a $101 multi.We cover the All Aged Stakes and the Champagne Stakes in full, break down every runner, and build our multi leg by leg.ALL AGED STAKES (1400m)A wide open race — but one horse stands out as the value play. Giga Kick has the class but does he need the sting out of the track? Jimmysstar has been inconclusive this prep. Angel Capital gets James McDonald for the first time and is desperate for the rise to 1400m. Fangirl is over the odds at double figures. And Beiwacht — flying, maps perfectly, back to 1400m for the first time since his Golden Rose demolition. He's the one.CHAMPAGNE STAKESCan Campione D'Italia stamp himself as the only dual G1 winner of the two-year-old crop? Miss Chanel never runs a bad race — wide draw but strong late. Fireball keeps chasing home his stablemate — can the low draw help him turn the tables? And Southend — two from two and unbeaten. How good is he? We find out Saturday.Full analysis. Form. Value plays. And a $101 multi.

Jelly comes back with the BTS Comeback. ARIRANG is a hit, and the promotions have been catered directly for ARMY. As the year of 2026 begins, the secet promotions start to filter through personal post cards, mysterious countdowns, walls of roses, and "what is your love song?" plastered on every media platform. With exactly 77 days running on the countdown, ARMY are in detective mode to investigate what this secret comeback is about. With over 4.06 million pre-orders on an album that has zero public details; BTS continue to break records. And, of course, ARIRANG has gone platinum in the headphones of one Jelly. Less than 30 hours after the release ARIRANG, BTS host a fre concert in Gwanghwamun Square in Seoul, South Korea with over 18 million viewers on the livestream hosted by Netflix. With the constant promotions involving interviews and group activities, Jelly, as well as other excited ARMY, are getting well-fed before the start of their sold-out world tour.

It's 2026, so we're talking about plagues and protests. Kris is sick again after spending too much time around small children, which means she has a bevy of binge-worthy television to recommend. Despite a board game haul and a blast from gaming past, Tara's also had time to read a book or two. They also talk about prologue protocol and epilogue etiquette.  Official Recommendations  From Kris: Deadloch (Amazon Prime) Kris's recommendation this week is Deadloch, an Australian black-comedy crime mystery series set in a remote town that's dealing with a murder. Kris praised the character work and the different approach to comedy (including its face-eating seal named Kevin). Deadloch is in its second season now, but Kris's recommendation is solely for its first. From Tara: Margin of Error by Rachel Lacey Tara's official recommendation this week is Margin of Error by Rachel Lacey. This sapphic romance begins with a chance meeting and a traumatic event that impacts the two leads, who reconnect a couple of years later in a small town in Vermont. Tara loved how this story shows two women coming to their sexuality later in life and the different ways that is expressed. It's a deliciously slow burn, and Tara thinks that if you're into slow, you'll love this book.  Works/People Discussed What's Wrong With You (game) Game of Thrones (HBO) Tempting Olivia by Clare Ashton Extracted (Fox) Bridgerton (Netflix) RuPaul's Drag Race: UK vs. the World (BBC Three) RuPaul's Drag Race (World of Wonder) Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles (Square Enix) Taylor Tomlinson: Prodigal Daughter (2026)  Of Potions and Honey by Cara N.

The Fangirl Archives is a light hearted podcast for people who love music and the culture that grows around the things we care about most. In Episode 1, I share how my fangirl era started with bootleg anime on YouTube, a random ad and the moment I discovered BTS. From there, I talk about the songs that pulled me in, what it felt like learning the members' names and why that is basically the point of no return. I also start a discography deep dive with their early albums, from 2 Cool 4 Skool to Dark and Wild, and why each era mattered. If you are new to BTS or just curious what fandom feels like from the inside, this is your entry point. #TheFangirlArchives #BTSArmy #KpopFans #FandomLife #PopCulturePodcast

Sarah had joined dating apps under the name “Domina Cherry,” using the alias to gain access to hundreds of men she planned to murder in an effort to become the most prolific serial killer to ever live. Reportedly obsessed with notorious murderers, including Ted Bundy, Jack the Ripper, and Richard Ramirez, Sarah aspired to match their depravity and notoriety. This case forces us to confront something uncomfortable - because there is a clear and crucial difference between studying killers to understand them, and idolizing them to the point of wanting to become one. True crime asks us to look darkness in the face...while Sarah took notes on how to replicate it.

Did I say something gay at the femslash convention?! This week, a very special LIVE episode of This Week In Fandom History, recorded at the 10th anniversary TGIF/F (TGI Femslash) con in San Pedro, CA! Emily was not able to attend, so V is joined for the recording by wonderful cohost-in-law Mia from Fan Girl Film Club.  The last 40 minutes are shares from TGIF/F attendees about what the con has meant to them over the years, and they are truly not to be missed. So special, so vulnerable, so queer, so fandom. If nothing else, listen to these -- and start saving to come to TGIF/F in 2027. It's a place like none other.

(00:00:00) Men are often celebrated for passionately supporting sports teams—spending money, getting emotional, and “fangirling” over players—while women are frequently mocked for showing the same level of enthusiasm for musicians, makeup, athletes, or concerts. The double standard treats identical behaviors differently depending on gender, even though both are simply forms of fandom and joy. We take a deep dive into this idea and stigma with Professor Mary Zaborskis from Penn State Harrisburg. (00:21:03) Born in 1947 as a “blue baby” with undiagnosed Tetralogy of Fallot, he was initially given little chance of surviving childhood. After moving to Carlisle, it took seven years before a cardiologist in Philadelphia agreed to treat him. Over the decades, he underwent multiple major heart surgeries: a Blalock‑Taussig‑Thomas shunt in 1958, a Waterston shunt in 1967, and finally a full TOF repair in 1980 by Dr. John Kirklin—an operation that transformed his stamina and daily life.His long-term care continued through several cardiologists, most notably Dr. William Davidson at Penn State Hershey, who guided him through a pulmonary valve replacement in 2005 and later the implantation of an ICD to manage arrhythmias and ventricular tachycardia. After Dr. Davidson’s passing in 2022, he transitioned to the care of Dr. Elizabeth Adams.Following Dr. Davidson’s advice, he became active in the Adult Congenital Heart Association (ACHA), finding community, education, and purpose as a peer mentor for others with CHD—especially those with TOF. He emphasizes that people with congenital heart disease are never “fixed,” only “repaired,” and often require ongoing interventions throughout life.Despite the challenges, he has lived a full, rich life, with a family he’s deeply proud of, and a personal mission to support and reassure others navigating CHD.Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Big feelings, bigger news. We start with pure fandom delight—an anime-inspired artist makeover and a must-have lightstick—before moving through the nuts and bolts of smart show-going: merch game plans, pop-ups, post-show drops, and how a sold-out Boston date changes the strategy for lines, sizes, and travel.From there, we take on the heavier side of music culture. ONF parts ways with their agency but keeps their name, a hopeful template for groups who want autonomy without losing identity. We examine a label's public warning against malicious posts and why legal action matters when harassment escalates from critique to threats. The conversation tackles parasocial lines, airport etiquette, and the way clipped videos distort context. A behind-the-scenes series makes it painfully clear how online abuse hits artists and their families, pushing some off platforms completely. Our stance is simple: support who you love, verify what you read, and choose care over clout.It's not all storm clouds. We cheer ENHYPEN's Sunghoon joining the Olympic torch relay and applaud Hwasa's Good Goodbye sprinting past 100 million YouTube views. We also unpack the abrupt postponement of a major Hong Kong concert just a week out, what that means for ticket holders, artists, and vendors, and why transparency and legal recourse matter. Then we close on a personal high: OK Asia is now syndicated via Pacifica Network, expanding the mission to spotlight Asian music on more stations across the U.S.Join us for a ride that blends practical tips, current news, and a grounded reminder to keep fandom human.

OMG babes, this episode is HOT—I'm rewinding the clock and replaying the very first time I interviewed the woman who literally sparked The Curious Girl Diaries: Girl On The Net

Show Notes 0:00: Justin and Helen return from hibernation (and attempting to stay warm in the East coast) to resume recording episodes of It’s Not My Fault TheOASG Podcast is Not Popular, and with the break, means catching up to things from even late December to January. The hosts start with once again a scanlation site shutting down, and what this ultimately means considering who was involved (and maybe not Kakao, which gets both hosts explaining how manhwa copyrights are…crazy) News 12:36: MediaOCD will be distributing Discotek Media’s catalog (as much as they can), and based on information online this project seems to have been sped up following a number of home media titles being delisted on Crunchyroll. This gets both hosts speculating on what this means, and why it sometimes now gets harder and harder to support official publishers. 18:59: Netflix continues making some deals as they’ve worked out a partnership with MAPPA and will be working with TOHO (and their new studio) to produce a bunch of works in a couple years 21:35: We got some hiatuses and returns to cover, starting with The Café Terrace and Its Goddesses manga being continued; after just not having any new chapters since 2022, The Girl, the Shovel, and the Evil Eye manga will return and also finish in a couple chapters; Kemono Jihen is taking a one-issue break due to Sho Aimoto suffering from gastroenteritis to start 2026; Phantom Busters will be on break as something’s going on with Neoshoco, the hosts hope they’re ok; The hosts break down what the heck’s going on with The New Prince of Tennis series as it went through some major editor mismanagement, enough to wear there could not be a new chapter in Jump SQ; The Days of Diamond will go on hiatus, no announcement on its return; Bocchi the Rock! was intended to return this month, but Aki Hamaji’s health has not improved enough to return to serialization, so the hiatus will continue; and in final manga hiatuses, Hajime no Ippo’s taking a break, no announcement on when it’ll return. 25:38: Makes sense that Go Nagai will be inducted into this year’s Eisner’s Hall of Fame, took them long enough; Manga creator Hisashi Eguchi apologized in December after tracing allegations were made back in October that had a number of companies suspend working with him; Chitose in the Ramune Bottle’s got some work to do following its delay due to production issues; And apparently A Tale of the Secret Saint needs more work as it’s been pushed from Spring to Fall season; What in the world is going with the Madoka movie? Well no one knows except that’s now been delayed from its release this month to an unannounced date; and the voice of Hitomi Koshigaya, Yumiri Hanamori, stepped down from the role for an undisclosed reason. So for the upcoming Magilumiere Magical Girls Inc. anime, there will need to be a new voice for her. 30:53: Talent agency Aoni Production announced that voice actor Kōzō Shioya had died on January 20 due to cerebral hemorrhage — a number of people noted his impact on them and sent their condolences on social media on this difficult loss. Licenses 31:57: Seven Seas and their Wonderful Wednesdays have returned for 2026!

Osamu Tezuka’s Black Jack as an oversized Deluxe Edition and a Full Color Selection of Muneyuki Kaneshiro & Yusuke Nomura’s Blue Lock 37:23: Yen Press also decided to start the year off pretty strong as well: Hoku Tomose's List Rouge Masaaki Nakayama's Seeds of Anxiety: Asterisk Sakuhiro's The Crow’s Ballad at Dawn Umi Ruike's Beneath the Fur Akumi Agitogi & Kei Tamura's The Bubble Love of the Mermaid manga Daisuke Motomi's Magic Doctor Rex's Perverted Medical Record Nanigashi Shima & raemz's Love Unseen Beneath the Radiant Night Sky (Yen On) 38:16: Cross Infinite World has licensed these three titles: Mayo Momoyo & Wan Hachipisu's The Brooding Duke's Guide to the Lie-Detecting Lady, Mashimesa Emoto & Nitou Akane's Goodbye, Horrible Fiancé, Hello, Fun Magic School Life! and Hanami Nishine & Renta's Strawberry Princess: The Time Loop Defying Villainess; Abrams ComicArts’ Kana imprint announced they’ve licensed Muneyuki Kaneshiro and Kensuke Nishida’s Jagaan manga; Nao Iori’s Manaka the Human and the Slaughter Robot, Yuto Ito’s Goodbye My Idol, & Manose and Miharu’s Island Rock have been added to MANGA Plus; Crossed Hearts has licensed Akisuke’s The Executioner of Grenimal and Hanami Nishine & Satsuki Amamiya’s The Matchmaker’s Fiancé: My Fiancé Won’t Leave Me Alone While I’m Finding Him The Ideal Bride; and Manga Mavericks announced they’ve licensed Koukoku Brothers's Divine Messengers and Demonic Guardians & Banjo Saitou's Vegetable Sandwich 40:40: Meanwhile, Discotek had a few announcements, and yes, more Lupin the 3rd is a given at this point for them! Streaming News 41:34: The Dangers in My Heart compilation film will be screened in some of the more popular cities this month; Whoever Steals This Book has been acquired by Crunchyroll and will also make its debut at the New York International Children’s Film Festival. 43:11: Remember when Oshi no Ko S3 got picked up by Crunchyroll? What did that mean for HIDIVE since they had the first two seasons? Absolutely nothing apparently since HIDIVE is still streaming it; Justin gets to talk about his excitement about the Umamusume Pretty Derby: Beginning of a New Era being in theaters at the end of the month; And Helen wonders why ALDNOAH.ZERO is back as Crunchyroll has added the English dub — which includes a new episode that aired in Japan last year — to their service. 46:10: A few anime will be on Netflix this year: Kyoto Animation’s Sparks of Tomorrow (in the summer) and Studio KAI’s Ramparts of Ice (in Spring); 47:05: So there were two anime that aired in Japan last year — April Showers Bring May Flowers and Monster Strike: Deadverse Reloaded — that was not picked up by an official service…until now! Prime now is streaming these anime; Fawesome began streaming the Despair of the Monster indie anime film sometime this past December, but at the moment only those in Canada and the UK can watch it. Weird News 49:18: More news about live-action Gundam keeps pouring out, and it gets even closer to becoming a real thing; Pokémon and Hatsune Miku is a thing again; The X (Twitter) continues to just get worse and its editing image feature for lots of people had a couple artists saying they do not want to put their illustrations on there. 55:36: The Many Sides of Voice Actor Radio is over!…in print! It’s still ongoing digitally though. This gets Helen wondering however… 57:48: Sugar Sugar Rune has been added to Tubi…BUT there's a reason why it's in the weird news section! So far not at Tai Chi Chasers level, but… 59:32: Rumiko Takahashi made a trip to San Francisco some time ago (which can probably mean VIZ and her are cooking something) and visited a museum — somehow Bible Black is brought up in this part (Why Helen, just why); Justin wonders if Sazae-san is gearing up to be released overseas moving forward now that it’ll see its first overseas release in Taiwan; Otakon announced on Bluesky on Thursday the event is no longer allowing the sale of fan art in its dealers room beginning with the 2026 event, and Helen explains what this means. 1:05:17: Anime can make famous actors cry — see Michael B. Jordan crying over My Hero Academia — and can have its own category on Jeopardy!. Both hosts wonder if anime has become too mainstream… If there’s anything you’d like to share, please feel free to reach out to us on Twitter (@TheOASG) or comment below with your thoughts!

On the eve of the Oscar Nominations, as the entertainment award season just gets into full swing, producer KellieAnn Halvorsen (the fangirl) and guest host Rachel Wagner (the film critic) come together to pick the best and worst films of 2025. It is no secret that there is a big difference between what audiences and critics think of movies, but even among critics there are some great debates about what makes a movie award-winning. Rachel discusses this process as the Utah Film Critics Association already listed their 2025 favorites in a lively debate. She also shares her top films of 2025 and worst films of 2025. Together, they emphasize the importance of ignoring other people and enjoying what you enjoy! Like Rachel does on The Hallmarkies Podcast, and how KellieAnn has chosen her stupidly-fun pick of the year with Amazon’s “The Playdate.” The brains behind Fan Effect are connoisseurs of categories surpassing nerdy, with a goal to publish a weekly "What to Watch on the Weekend" minisode taken from KSL-TV's Friday segment, and two deep-dives a month on shows, creative works, artists, local events, and other fandom topics.  Based in the beautiful Beehive State, Fan Effect celebrates Utah's unique fan culture as it has been declared The Nerdiest State in America by TIME, and is hosted by KSL Movie Show's Andy Farnsworth and Deseret News / KSL Podcasts' KellieAnn Halvorsen.

Lee Magorrian had never been on a horse's back when he got a stablehand's job with Joe Byrne in his native County Meath in 2009. He continued to work on the ground when he later transferred to legendary horsewoman Joanna Morgan. Lee's life took an unexpected twist when he was encouraged by a friend to visit NZ where he made the snap decision to become an apprentice jockey. One hundred winners later, young Magorrian won a much sought after scholarship which springboarded him into a trip to Australia and a stint with premier trainer Chris Waller. The much travelled young jockey is now firmly ensconced as a popular “go-to” jockey on the NSW provincial circuit. It's a pleasure to share Lee's story on our podcast. Lee says he's been surprised by the ongoing support of  Chris Waller and several other trainers who patronise the Newcastle and Kembla Saturday meetings. He talks about his patient style of riding and his efforts to look busy in tight finishes. The jockey takes us back to childhood days in County Meath (IRE). He talks of siblings and the absence of racing in the family background.    Lee says there was a time he had visions of becoming a primary school teacher but that ambition was quickly replaced by several sporting pursuits.                                                    He admits to taking on his stablehand's job for no other reason than to earn some pocket money. He pays tribute to two employers Joe Byrne and Joanna Morgan, both former outstanding jockeys.   He talks of a suggestion put to him by Samantha Wynne, an Irish jockey who was already working in NZ. Lee looks back on his first apprenticeship to Roger James at his famous Kingscere Stables in Cambridge. Sadly the association didn't work out. He talks of a move to the stables of Shaun and Emma Clotworthy. Lee remembers with clarity the thrill of his first winning ride at Ruakaka. He reflects on a black type win at Te Rapa on a very smart horse called Barbaric. Lee remembers an Ellerslie win on Rising Romance, almost certainly the best horse he got to ride in NZ. The 31 year old hasn't forgotten the thrill of his scholarship win, a whirlwind move to Sydney and a stint at the Waller stable. Lee says he thought his first win for Waller would never come. He was immensely relieved to get home on Pianissimo at Warwick Farm. He was thrilled to land a Saturday double at Royal Randwick not long after. Lee talks of a win in an apprentice's race on the ill fated Higher Ground. He had a big opinion of the gelding. The jockey likes to claim some of the credit for the launch of Fangirl's stellar career. He had the mount when Fangirl strolled home in a Goulburn maiden. He recalls a win on Mo'unga when the horse was trained by Chris Waller.   Lee enjoys reminiscing about some high profile horses he got to ride in trackwork for the Waller stable. He hasn‘t forgotten the thrill of his biggest single race day achievement, a four win haul at Newcastle. Lee outlines his trackwork and barrier trial involvement. He talks of a strong association with the Richard and Will Freedman yard. Lee talks of a casual association with the Waterhouse/Bott stable. He recalls a Newcastle win on a horse destined for Derby success a few weeks later. He talks of his connection with the Kris Lees stable. Lee recalls the support he received from Blake Shinn in his early days in Sydney. As a regular at the Saturday Kembla and Newcastle meetings, Lee says he's formed strong camaraderie with a group of fellow riders. It's a laid back chat with a genial Irishman who followed his instincts after leaving the place of his birth.

Five songs. Three countries. Zero dull moments. We kick off with Japan's Six Lounge, a trio that proves rock's heartbeat is still loud and live. The track is all lift and launch: punchy drums, humming bass, and guitar flashes that nod to classic grit while sounding clean and current. It's the kind of sound that drags you into motion—head, hands, and maybe an air guitar solo.Then we slide into a velvet lane with China's Tia Ray and Heart Shaped Hole. A Spanish-tinged guitar loop meets soft R&B swing while her vocal ties it together with poise and bite. The imagery is intimate and memorable, turning a love song into a promise to do it right and do it slow. It's the kind of hook that lingers long after the fade.Alamat's Sinigang, named after the beloved Filipino sour-and-savory soup, is comfort rendered in sound. Minimal percussion, delicate keys, and harmonies that bloom like steam from a bowl. Produced by member Alas, the arrangement leaves room for voices to intertwine, capturing the sweet-and-sour ache of longing and the warmth of being held by a melody you trust.We shift gears with Tomohisa Yamashita's The Artist, a pop-rock cut built on a relentless cadence—a tattoo in rhythm and permanence. Smooth vocals ride a gritty bed as Yamapi frames the artist-fan bond as both fuel and vow: I'll be strong for you, can you see me? It's precise, propulsive, and unashamedly direct.To close, a hypercharged collision: Mori Calliope x Kenty's Gold Unbalance. Sparse spark, then blast-off—new metal edges, EDM swells, even a jazzy flicker—plus two rap breaks that snap without stepping on each other. Her fierce attack and his grounded glide lock back to back, no matter what.If you love discovering global music that actually flows as a playlist—rock that roars, R&B that soothes, pop that pulses, and a collab that rockets—this one's for you. SIX LOUNGE: Instagram X YouTube Rock and RollTia Ray: Instagram X Heart Shaped HoleAlamat: Instagram X YouTube SinigangTomohisa Yamashita: Instagram X YouTube The ArtistMori Calliope: X YouTube Gold Unbalance (with KENTY)Support the showPlease help Music Elixir by rating, reviewing, and sharing the episode.

The week came at us sideways: calendars out of sync, tours on the brink, and one of the bravest artist statements we've seen in years. We start with that universal fog after Thanksgiving, the kind that makes you write November in December, and use it as a lens for how timing shapes fandom—planning travel, stacking budgets, and riding the emotional wave of yes… or maybe not.Then we get real about touring. MIYAVI's North America cancellation stings, but the message lands: logistics, economics, sustainability. No vague “unforeseen circumstances,” just the hard truth that keeps a door open for future shows. On the other side, KARD's promoter does what every fan hopes for—confirms passports and US work visas are fully approved. That kind of proactive clarity flips anxiety into excitement, especially when ticket fees and refund gaps have already drained trust. We dig into why fees balloon, how scaling venues too fast backfires, and what fairer practices could look like for fans who bet big on travel.The conversation shifts with MONSTA X's I.M preparing for enlistment while managing back pain, meaning he'll sit out overseas activities and the 2026 tour. It's a reminder that health and duty set the frame for global schedules—and that honest timelines help fans show up with patience instead of surprise. We also unpack the STARTO year-end lineup that leaves out a few major names and raises questions about strategy, conflicts, and expectations around legacy shows.Our most powerful moment arrives with XG's Cocona coming out as transmasculine, non-binary and sharing they had top surgery. The post is thoughtful, proud, and supported by family and members. We talk about what this means for J-pop and idol culture, why representation matters, and how fans can adjust language with care. When artists tell the truth—about identity, about logistics—the relationship gets stronger. That's the throughline: clarity, respect, and the courage to say what's real.If you felt the highs and lows of live music this year—worrying about another cancellation, cheering a green light, or celebrating someone living boldly—this one's for you.

Her collection was so successful, it expanded from a hundred stores to 200 and has continued that mission by building her own brand Fangirl. Remy has redefined what it means to merge influence with impact, showing how social media power can spark lasting change in the fashion industry. Remi Bader dives into the unconventional path that led her from PR and marketing to becoming one of the most recognizable names in fashion and content creation. She opens up about getting fired early in her career, why she initially thought fashion wasn't her space, and how creating videos during one of her lowest points unexpectedly launched her online success. Remi shares the full-circle moment of landing on Forbes 30 Under 30, how she spent all her early income on Uber and food delivery, and her resistance to being labeled an influencer. She details how UTA convinced her to go full-time into content creation, her days working as a fit model, and the whirlwind of balancing viral fame with mental health. Remi reflects on building her career completely on her own, the importance of never burning bridges, and how LinkedIn played a surprising role in her growth. She also gets candid about her collaboration with her dad (and why she'll never do business with family again), staying true to her values regardless of body size, prioritizing health, setting boundaries, and the story behind her brand, Fangirl. Remi reveals all this and so much more in another episode you can't afford to miss!

Tara Jabbari (Who Was She Podcast) is going to do Natalie a solid this episode and explain the information she studied about parasocial relationships during her graduate thesis. Parasocial relationships are a niche interest for Natalie because she loves being a fan girl for her favorite creators, musicians, and actresses but often feels personally attacked by all this talk on toxic parasocial relationships. Natalie and Tara will talk over the true definition of a parasocial relationships, the cons that come along with having a one-sided relationship with someone in the public eye, and how Natalie has actually turned those parasocial relationships to actual memories and connections with the people she admires. Of course there will be special mention of Natalie's other niche interests: Taylor Swift, the cast and crew of Dropout Tv, and Kesha.Support the Show:Follow us at @menivetoleratedpod on Instagram! https://www.patreon.com/menivetoleratedpod on Patreon for bonus content!
