The Fandom Menace & How We Got Here Pt. 2 - Knights of the Nerd Republic Ep. 114
Jarod & Alden of Ahch-To Radio team up to discuss why the Star Wars Fandom was a perfect target for Alt-Right infiltration and how the weaponization of fandom by the right serves as fertile ground for recruitment.
In Part 2 Jarod & Alden reflect on GamerGate as the ancestor of The Fandom Menace movement and the start similarities GamerGate had with the Prequel backlash as well as the anti-Sequel fallout.

The Fandom Menace & How We Got Here Pt. 1 - Knights of the Nerd Republic Ep. 113
Jarod & Alden of Ahch-To Radio team up to discuss why the Star Wars Fandom was a perfect target for Alt-Right infiltration and how the weaponization of fandom by the right serves as fertile ground for recruitment.
In Part I Jarod & Alden reflect on the toxic backlash to the Special Editions & the Prequel Trilogy and how the entitled mentality of desperately clinging to nostalgia primed many fans for the reactionary backlash of The Fandom Menace.
