This week, we continue our Summer Short Series with an anthology, edited by Hope Nicholson, that explores indigenous science fiction, urban fantasy, and LGBTQIA+/Two-Spirit characters! To add some chaos, Ako and Marci both read 3 stories--2 of which they both mutually read and 1 story that the other person didn't read! So grab a snack and enjoy yourselves as Ako and Marci discuss the simulated lives they would curate, thirsty teenage antics, gender-expansive cyborgs, and the artificial divide between nature and ourselves.

Literary Loitering | Cultural Anarchy with Books and The Arts
We’re a man down this week, but since it’s the most sensible of our three amigos it’s up to Andrew and Producer Rob to offer a half-hearted Amigo Salute before settling down to the serious business of cultural anarchy. So what do we have in store this time? Well, John le Carré has been pouring all kinds of scorn on British politics while parents are changing children’s stories if they’re deemed “too scary” … whatever that means. In other news, Grr Martin is apparently doing a lot of stuff, but none of it relates to writing The Winds of Winter, a Tasmanian convict’s daring escape in 1829 is getting retold as a kid’s book about birds, romance novelists are involved in a copyright dispute over the word “cocky”, and the police in Turkmenistan are investigating private and public toilets for evidence that the president’s “portrait” is being used as toilet paper (we did not make that up!). After all of that it’s time for Andrew to explore the romantic side of things in a collection called The Secret Loves of Geeks (edited by Hope Nicholson).

Diana is one half of the duo behind From Superheroes – the brand that brought you Texts from Superheroes (funny text conversations between your favourite superheroes and supervillains) and the superhero media review podcast, Talk from Superheroes. She founded the site in 2012 with her boyfriend, Comedian Andrew Ivimey and now they have millions of fans around the world. Diana also occasionally writes comics. She's currently featured in the Secret Loves of Geeks graphic anthology, the much anticipated sequel to The Secret Loves of Geek Girls edited by past Speech Bubble guest Hope Nicholson and published by Dark Horse Comics. Along with Diana, the sequel features contributions from Margaret Atwood and Gerard Way with a cover from Becky Cloonan. On the podcast, Aaron and Diana geek out on their mutual love of Batman, (and hatred of Damian Wayne) reveal how Texts from Superheroes began, define the term “Jedi Stick” and discuss those times Diana got “geek credded,” and she thought her testers were just making conversation.

Canadian Comic Historian Hope Nicholson is back to talk about her latest book of essays by comic creators and fans who write about the relationships they found and lost in the Geek world. It's a great insight into their minds and feelings, no matter your age, gender, or orientation might be. I think it makes us all feel like we're not as crazy or strange as we seem to ourselves. We also can't help but discuss the gender issues in comics and fandom, but we can debate gently and still respect the other's point of view.Hope also tells of a lousy convention guest experience, and how she turned that into a positive when a very recent Atlanta show cancelled their con without informing a guest like Hope, who had paid for a table and was making the city part of an extended city travel schedule. Airfare Hotel and travel incidentals that cons wouldn't refund. So what do you do when the show gets cancelled before you can cancel travel plans?
