Show overview
This Week In Fandom History has been publishing since 2023, and across the 3 years since has built a catalogue of 192 episodes, alongside 7 trailers or bonus episodes. That works out to roughly 200 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a weekly cadence, with the show now in its 4th season.
Episodes typically run an hour to ninety minutes — most land between 53 min and 1h 8m — and the run-time is fairly consistent across the catalogue. The publisher flags most episodes as explicit, so expect adult themes or strong language throughout. It is catalogued as a EN-language Leisure show.
The show is actively publishing — the most recent episode landed yesterday, with 50 episodes already out so far this year. Published by V. Arrow, Emily Jaye.
From the publisher
Co-hosted by V @aimmyarrowshigh (I Met You On LJ) and Emily @idontgettechnology (I Ship It), This Week In Fandom History celebrates fandom culture's highest highs and weirdest lows. With which short-lived vampire cop drama was the very first X-Files fic crossed over? Who is Tara Gilesbie? How recently did the Starsky & Hutch Lending Library rent out its last zine? What were Strikethrough, Racefail, LGBTFansDeserveBetter, and Conchobar, anyway? V and Emily trade off some deep-internet research each week to learn and laugh (and sometimes rage) their way through the annals (heh) of fandom history. Come join us!
