    About this Episode

    This week, the boys talk open up with the Writers and Actors strikes in Hollywood, and possible reports of actors cancelling appearances since they're not allowed to promote their upcoming projects during the strike. Will this mean more cancellations and less panels for Dragon Con and other fandom conventions? Also, we start our series covering the many tracks of DragonCon and the fandoms they represent, including a selection of some of the panels and events from the last few years to give you an idea what to expect (and where to find them). Plus Henry Cavill, Secret Invasion, Pitch Perfect (again?!), Nelson and his Mandela effect, Switch games, and much more on this week's DragonCon Survival Guide!

    Gary and Taylor, lifelong friends and self-proclaimed Dragon Con/Convention experts, talk tips and hacks to get the most out of your con experience - while saving as much money as possible – and whatever nerdy stuff crosses their minds. Save more at cons to spend more at cons! New episodes drop every Saturday.
