By now, you’ve received an email from every company you’ve ever given your email to on how they are dealing with COVID-19 (commonly known as the coronavirus). Additionally, events are being canceled left and right in order to flatten the curve and encourage social isolation to stop the spread.

Marsia Powers is a Los Angeles real estate agent by day, Whedon fan by ... well, by all free time? She not only helps manage the con, but she also helps run the fan sites Whedonopolis and Fandomopolis, which you may have noticed I've written for occasionally in the past year. I sat down with Marsia and talked about Buffy, the Vampire Slayer, Joss Whedon, being a fan, and WhedonCon.

G33K Out Episode 30: Gallifrey One 2018
Apr. 29th, 2018 03:04 pmIf you know me at all, you know I've been a fan of Doctor Who for most of my life. I've written about it extensively, whether it's my "Love Letter to Doctor Who" for the 50th anniversary, or my editorial on how my feelings changed over the years titled "Looking at 'Doctor Who' Series 9: Breaking Up is Hard to Do". So, when I had the chance at a ticket for this year's Gallifrey One, I jumped at the chance.

Last October, I got to yet again attend Stan Lee’s Los Angeles Comic Con, formerly known as Comikaze. My second time attending, this time I only went one day. This convention, now in its sixth year, was Los Angeles’ first major comic convention. As with any convention, there were plenty of panels, celebrities, and artists and vendors to go about.

While at the 2016 Wondercon, I also had the chance to talk with some of the people at another panel, "Streaming Success: Behind-the-Scenes of Your Favorite Binge Worthy Shows".
The panel discussed the original content of Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon, and some of the people that work on the various shows produced by them.

Last March, I attended WonderCon here in Los Angeles. While there, I had chance to meet up with some of the guys that were on the "High Scorers Panel: Star Composers of the Video Game World".
The panel was, obviously, music composers for video games talking about their work.
