Episode description
Welcome to our slightly unhinged summer series, Millennial Falcon!
This three-part series is all about the fandoms we've never felt like we were truly a part of until the past few years, our Millennial Falcons, if you will. For Rhonda, that's romance novels, and for Erin it's Star Wars.
In our introductory episode, we discuss our histories with our respective Millennial Falcons, why we feel it took us so long to engage with them, and how we feel about those fandoms now. We also talk a little about what we are currently watching and reading.
Next time we will talk more broadly about fandom and culture, and the psychology and sociology of popular fandoms.
