Shit You Should Care About

This week's episode of the Shit You Should Care About podcast, Lucy is joined by Sacha Judd!!

If you don't know Sacha, she's basically a leading expert on fandom and the power that fans hold - and if you've been around here a while you'll know we are OBSESSED with her and everything she has to say.

Luce and Sacha get into all of it this week - what it actually means to be a fan, the state of fandom right now (of course we mention Larry Stylinson and Heated Rivalry.) They also get into something really exciting - Sacha's new startup Lume!!! A music platform where fans can actually buy and own albums from the artists they love AND get exclusive content directly from them!!
