Fandom

Episode 107

Fandom

with Michael Jensen and Megan Powell du Toit

Welcome to a new season of With All Due Respect!

Megan Powell du Toit and Michael Jensen embark on another series of podcasts tackling some potentially divisive elements of culture with nuance, grace, and – of course- respect!

This week, our hosts look at the phenomena of fandom and ask – is it possible for fandom to go far? Can a Christian engage in fandom in good faith?

Both our hosts share what they’re fans of (this episode is a judgment-free zone!) before casting their eye over Tabitha Carvan’s book This Is Not A Book About Benedict Cumberbatch, a work which explores how an ordinary person can become obsessed by a certain middle-aged British actor.

WADR is hosted by Megan Powell du Toit and Michael Jensen. It is part of the Undeceptions podcast network. 

WHAT IS WITH ALL DUE RESPECT?

Less aggro, more conversation.

Is it even possible to have a deep discussion without it descending into chaos? Michael Jensen and Megan Powell du Toit think yes, and want to show the rest of us how to do it.

There’s plenty of things they disagree on: free will, feminism, where you should send your kids to school and what type of church you should go to. But there are also plenty of other things that they have in common. They want to talk about all these things with conviction. But they also want the conversation to be constructive. Tune in to find out if that’s possible.

If you’d like to help Michael and Megan continue to deliver With All Due Respect each fortnight, why not make a donation?

With All Due Respect is the podcast for The WADR Project.

With All Due Respect is a proud member of the Undeceptions Network.
