In the studio guests : Dr Emma Beddows ( researcher exploring how fans engage with commercial transmedia texts, oh and is a BIG Buffy fan! ) and Scott Liston ( Event Manager ) from First Contact Conventions and Armageddon, in the house of Joy to discuss all things Cons, conventions that is, from a fan and organiser POV. What they are, What is Armageddon, Why do them, Why go to them ?, but HOW much fun we get from going to them !

Also we played interviews with conventions organisers in the U.S of A : Sean Holman and Jody Wheeler from Hollywood’s very own LGBTIQ con for Queers and friends : Bent Con. Benjamin Williams from the impending and awesome Gaymercon which will be in San Francisco in 2013, and finally to our buddies over the seas on the isle of Manhatten: Geeks Out ! And how Jono Jarret and Patrick Yacco plan to do for all Queers present at this years NY Comic Con 13-14th Oct !!

So listen up Queer Geeks and Everyone and Anyone who loves Conventions.. and hear it all from the horses’ mouths !
