    Yer Amish, Harry: Discussing Amish & Mennonite themed Fan Fiction

    This week, the MennoBrarians do a deep dive into the world of fan fiction. The first half of the ep we chat about fan fiction generally - what it is, perceptions of it, and what fandoms we tend to read from. The second half, we chat about Amish and Mennonite themed fan fictions, of which there are about 200 on the site Archive of Our Own (a site that contains almost 18 million fics). Tillie pulled what she could find into a collection: https://archiveofourown.org/collections/AnabaptistFics  If you've never read fan fiction, you can explore AO3 without an account: https://archiveofourown.org/, and/or register for an account for free if you become as invested in your fic reading as the three of us have. Fan fiction also exists on sites like WattPad, Fanfiction.net and Tumbler.  We don't discuss fanfic etiquette in the episode so posting it here: if you choose to read fics on any fan fic site, remember these authors are working for free: leave a comment or kudos if you like it, and close the tab if you don't.  We always love hearing from listeners!

    Why is there a Maypole? Discussing episodes of Glenn Martin, DDS & 2 Broke Girls

    This week, the MennoBrarians watch some TV shows! The first show we review is season 1, ep 2 of Glenn Martin, DDS, a cartoon show about a family traveling the country in a mobile dentistry RV. In this episode, Glenn decides his children are addicted to technology, and that the solution is to live briefly with the Amish.  In the second half of the episode we discuss 2 Broke Girls, season 2 episode 7. The show follows two young women living in Brooklyn. In this ep, two young Amish men visit the restaurant they work at saying they are on Rumspringa, and are recruited to build a stable for a horse.  We also chat about if / what sitcoms could do better if they want to do an "Amish" episode, our favorite Catherine O'Hara shows/movies (it's relevant! promise!), and much more.  We always love hearing from listeners!
