Things are not going to go the way you think... Today on GeekFest Rants, this line from Star Wars: The Last Jedi, will apply both to the kind of show we are uploading and to one of Carlos' favorite podcasts, Rebel Force Radio. On this episode we are doing an unexpected continuation to our previous Toxic Fandom episode. This time we'll cover how Toxic Fandom and politics seeps into everyday personal relationships. How we are often disappointed by the media personalities we admire. And even, how something as unifying as a top rated Star Wars podcast can divide the fan community due to their political and diversity/inclusively views.
