Podcasts about monster love

In this episode, we're joined by Y. M. Nelson, a Contemporary Romance Specialist, Podcast Host, and Pop Culture Aficionado, to explore the fascinating intersection of romantic fiction and nerd culture. While romance may seem like an unexpected pairing with geekdom, the two often intertwine in ways that deeply resonate with fans across genres.We begin with Shapeshifting Romance and Monster Love, a unique aspect of the romance genre that has found a stronghold in nerd culture. From the classic tales of Beauty and the Beast to modern fantasy series featuring vampires, werewolves, and other supernatural beings, Y. M. Nelson discusses why these unconventional love stories captivate audiences. The allure of the unknown, the metaphor of transformation, and the deep emotional connections make these romances stand out as fan-favorites.Next, we explore Romantic Comedic Relief, where romance provides a balance to intense storytelling in various nerdy franchises. Whether it's Han and Leia's banter in Star Wars, Tony Stark's wit with Pepper Potts in Iron Man, or the lighthearted relationships in anime, romance often adds levity and emotional grounding to larger-than-life narratives. Y. M. Nelson explains how comedic elements in romance create engaging dynamics that nerd culture continues to embrace.The discussion then shifts to Love Stories Across Nerd Culture, highlighting the romance elements embedded in superhero stories, sci-fi, fantasy, and even video games. Whether it's Peter Parker and Mary Jane, Cloud and Tifa, or Lois and Clark, romance serves as a key driver of emotional stakes in many fan-favorite narratives. Y. M. Nelson breaks down how these relationships contribute to character depth and world-building, making romance an essential ingredient in many beloved franchises.Lastly, we look at Shoujo Demographic as a Gateway to Romance, where anime and manga introduce audiences to romantic storytelling. Titles like Fruits Basket, Ouran High School Host Club, and Sailor Moon have played a pivotal role in shaping how many nerd culture fans perceive romance. Y. M. Nelson explains why the themes of first love, personal growth, and emotional connections in shoujo anime make them accessible and influential for fans looking to explore romance in fiction.Whether you're a romance reader, an anime fan, or someone who enjoys storytelling in all its forms, this discussion reveals the unexpected yet deeply connected relationship between romantic fiction and nerd culture.Want to be a guest on MC Anime Podcast?

Mystery of the Cave - Book two of the Michael Potts Archaeological Mystery novel - https://amzn.to/3EvGCEE Katherine and I were fortunate to spend some time with Jason Ginsburg and Eduardo Garcia Rascon, who wrote the music for "Children of the Night," a new song sung by Brette Alana. The song features the classic monsters that we have all come to love.  It is an amazing song, and it fits great into this month's Halloween theme. The lyrics, music, and vocals are stunning.

Peter Cardwell – Gardner of Made With Monster Love joins me on today’s show and we’re going to talk about his sandbox music game, Cadence.

We discuss whats on our "Plan To Watch" list and Jellokun talks about the first 24 episodes of Monster

In which our heroes get seduced by Dracula, go for a long walk by the swamp with the Gilman and enjoy a moonlit picnic with the Wolfman while we wonder which Hammer Movie Monster would make the best boyfriend. We discuss the issues with sleeping next to a man who is more hair than man and weigh up the pros and cons of having an undead boyfriend who's been around for a millennia or an undead boyfriend who lives in the last century. Jackson finds himself less and less attracted to Wolfman as the episode goes on, Zammit wants a man who can become bats, and Duscher just desperately tries to find something good about the Mummy. So join the lads on their European Summer of Monster Love, as they try to forget about their high school boyfriend Chad by dating their way through castles, swamps and pyramids to find the perfect man.
