When Fans Become Dangerous

W!ZARD STUDIOS
About this episode

In this episode, we dive into the very dark side of fandom. Carla Temis, Meg Griffin, and Susi Segura join Erin to discuss fans that cross the line and become obsessed, stalk, and kill celebrities. We talk about if there is a clear line in the sand, how social media has changed the game, discuss some famous cases where celebrities were killed, and more. This is a heavy episode, so please pay attention to the trigger warnings for stalking and murder.
