#288 Cons and Meeting Other Geeks, Part 1

We talk about our first sci-fi/fantasy/comic convention experiences and delve into our conceptions (and misconceptions) about the process of gathering in the name of geek. GWC listener (and active community member) Julie joins us to tell us about losing her con virginity at the biggest fan con of ’em all, Dragon*Con. And we run down the week in geek, including a serious discussion (no, really) about the upcoming not-trying-to-be-cheesy sci-fi porn flick Horizon (and what defines porn), some drooling (and whining) over the Nike Mag (read: Back to the Future) sneakers, and lots of upcoming TV goodness.
