In this month's episode of the ConPod, we are joined by the host of the WeeklyTrek podcast Alex Perry, one of the hosts of the Trek Geeks podcast Bill Smith and, for her 2nd apperance on the ConPod, Brooke Horton. Our panel will do a deep dive introduction to the 57 Year Mission Convention in Las Vegas (STLV) this coming August! Some of the topics we discuss are transportation (flying to Vegas and getting around once you're there), hotel options (we look at the Rio, the Gold Coast and everything in between) as well as an indepth breakdown of all of the various ticket tiers.

For my first convention review, I'm joined by journalist, Dean Rogers of pop culture news site, The Rogers Revue. Together, we discuss our collective and separate experiences at the convention as well as some general best practices for going to a convention. As a frequent comic con attendee myself, I was struck by the differences and similarities that I experienced in this convention space. Dean and I cover subjects from the current state of fandom to the emotional experience of celebrity interactions and between all that, I give Farpoint my convention score with my new "convention rubic". Have a listen and I can't wait to hear what you think. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/interspectional/support
