Are Fandoms Broken? (From Mosh-Pits to The Mandalorian!)

Send us a text and let us know what you think of our podcast! (https://www.buzzsprout.com/1859919/fa...) This week we take a rare break from Doctor Who and instead turn our attentions to some other stuff we've been enjoying recently - music, video games and the recent new STAR WARS movie: The Mandalorian and Grogu!  Along the way, we chat about the widespread negativity in online fandoms and look at why that might be. Is it simply because people don't like movies which fail to live up to their expectations, or are there more sinister reasons at play?  If you've got an opinion on this then let us know what you think - do you agree with our thoughts or is it down to something else entirely?  PLUS we talk about the joy of concerts and live music - and why Geoff absolutely did NOT jump into the mosh-pit at the Dead Pony gig in Camden! We'll be back with more Doctor Who soon, but for now, check out our digression into movies, music and video games, and let us know if you'd like us to do more episodes like this in the future!
