a podcast of candy by A Podcast of Candy
Sam & Emile spend their final episode of a Podcast of Candy with Part 2 of Fanwork Feast, talking fan-music, fan-rewrites, and fan-moderating! Thank you to everyone who stayed with us to the very end, and to our friends and fellow fans for the support. We've had so much fun and we couldn't have had a better send-off with this over *3 hour* episode!
Sam & Emile talk all things fandom, fanworks, and fanon in their penultimate episode of A Podcast of Candy! What is it about this season that inspired so many fanworks? Why did people fixate on background characters so hard? What is UP with all the tragic relationships? Finishing off with a bang, we thought the best way to get an insight into the fans of A Crown of Candy is to ask them ourselves!
Sam & Emile get absolutely unhinged with Squid about Villains in A Crown of Candy! Why are they so compelling? What makes this season of Dimension 20 particularly great when it comes to villains? And, of course, why has the fandom fixated so much on Calroy? Talking first impressions, girlbosses, and 2006 hit film 'The Devil Wears Prada', for some reason. Sorry in advance.
Sam and Emile welcome August Cloudmancy this episode to talk about the Flaws in A Crown of Candy! This campaign isn't a perfect one, and that is precisely why we find it so interesting. What didn't we like about it? What could've been done better? And why is this still our favourite season despite (and because of) these imperfections?
Sam and Emile welcome Chrome to the podcast to talk Religion in A Crown of Candy! How does A Crown of Candy portray the importance of religion and the church in medieval times? Where does it succeed in its portrayals of religion, and where does it fail? What intersections exist between race and religion? Including exclusive information and insight from Chrome and their 4 hour interview with Brennan way back in November!
Sam and Emile welcome their first guest onboard to explore race in A Crown of Candy: Sydney! How can a show where everyone is made out of food have race? How racist is D&D? How do we combat that and create respectful diversity even beyond A Crown of Candy? Including discussions about coding, unintentional racism, and whether or not we'll ever have any wuests (white guests) on this podcast.
Sam and Emile get excited to talk about how much they love the women in A Crown Of Candy, in the feminist way and in the gay way. What makes the women in A Crown of Candy so unique and compelling? Why were they such polarising figures? Mean women, fandom misogyny, fridging, and the word 'Vriska' is mentioned at least once.

Sam and Emile ramble on about moral complexity in A Crown of Candy for a very, very long time. What made the grey morality and tricky situations in A Crown of Candy so compelling and emotional? What is it about this season that had fans at each other's throats? Will we accidentally reignite months-old discourse? Who knows! We're super interested in hearing about what you guys think, so make sure to tweet and post about us with #acocpod, and follow @apodcastofcandy on twitter and tumblr to stay updated!

Sam and Emile do some tonal whiplash themselves and jump straight into talking about death in A Crown of Candy! What makes the genre so deadly? What is it about D&D death that's so compelling? What scenes made us bawl our eyes out? And of course, back-up characters and Schrodinger's canon.

Sam and Emile introduce themselves and talk: What is A Crown of Candy? What made it interesting enough to start a podcast for a D&D campaign six months after it ended? Genre-bends, world-building, character introductions--and yes, this is just as self-indulgent as it sounds.
