This episode of Nerd & Tie was recorded in a Super 8 in Dekalb, IL, as Nick, Gen and Trae were all at Karoshi Con! In the headlines we tackle Cherry City Comic Con’s confusing cancellation and uncancellation. Then we talk about the revelations surrounding the late Justin “JewWario” Carmical that have come out in the wake of #ChangeTheChannel.
Just a content warning, that story includes a frank discussion of sexual assault and grooming. If you can’t listen to it, you can jump to our main discussion topic at the twenty-five minute mark.
That main discussion is pretty fun though, as we let Nick talk about King Arthur — and mostly how every single fanfic trope you can imagine went into forming the “canon” of Arthurian legend.
Lancelot is just someone’s OC guys. Seriously.
