    Romancing the Vulcan

    Why do we enjoy characters that are emotionless interacting with "normal" emotional people? Wesley Chu moderates with panelists Whitney Ross, Amy Sundberg and Tom Doyle. From the programme: "Emotionally restrained heroes were popular in the age of reason; after Romanticism swept Europe, Jane Austen's Darcys and Knightleys were the only emotionally Vulcan-esque heroes left in media for quite some time. From Darcy/Lizzie on the page, to Spock/Uhura on the screen and Spock/Kirk in our fanfic, we love human passion rubbing up against Vulcan reason. What are other models of this dynamic? What's so appealing about loving a Vulcan...or being one?

    How To Like Problematic Things

    Sometimes the things we like come with baggage. Topics that weren't treated well, authors who don't align with popular opinion, voting slates. This panel, recorded in January, discusses some of those things. Moderated by Phillipe McNally, panelists Jeannie, Amy Sundberg and Sarah Gibbons. From the Programme: "Lord of the Rings, A Song of Ice & Fire, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. Many of us like things that are deeply problematic! Liking these works doesn't (necessarily) make you a jerk. How can we like problematic things and not only be decent people, but good allies and activists? How does one's background matter? How does one address the problems? This panel will discuss how to own up to the problematic things in the media you like, particularly when you feel strongly about them."
