Fandom on the Rocks

by Fandom on the Rocks

Fandom on the Rocks is a smart, funny, emotionally invested podcast about television, fandom, ships, chaos, and questionable narrative choices. We recap shows like Glee, 9-1-1, and Teen Wolf with love, skepticism, and an alarming number of notes — digging into character arcs, fandom discourse, slow burns, plot holes, and the canon that almost gets it right. Grab a coffee, pull up a chair. Let’s overthink television together.

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

A great deep dive into Glee. The hosts dissect the characters and the relationships in the show. These hosts are hysterical I couldn’t stop laughing! The content and chemistry is excellent. Looking forward to more!

I cannot begin to tell you how much I love this podcast. The hosts are intelligent, witty, and funny, and have a lot of interesting thoughts about characters and stories. I love the ranking systems for each episode, and get a good chuckle every time they bring up fandom stories and jokes. Five stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Megs_C · Jun 2020

Started listening to this today and I was really digging it buuuuttt...you guys really lost me at the Sebastian love, especially given what happens in Michael. I still think you guys are witty, smart, and fun to listen to and I still appreciate how the show still has (and had!) so many fandoms. 💙❤️

i watched glee when i was in high school and then went back to it last year and kind of had the same opinions, which i had thought were unpopular and based on nothing but wow. it’s nice to listen to them talk through the episodes and actually back their opinions with facts and examples. plus they’re all hilarious.
