PLEASE NOTE: All panelists and audience members were required to wear masks throughout this panel. This does make certain portions of the recording a bit difficult to hear, and I apologize for this [albeit very necessary] “inconvenience”.
This panel focused on the first season of the Netflix show Shadow and Bone, and while we did make some mention of the books, it is almost entirely spoiler-free. (Any book discussion was centered more around the basic differences between books and show; there are absolutely no future spoilers.)
Panelists: Myself, Nami, Henry Hanks

I’ve been waiting and waiting to share my Dragon Con 2021 schedule because the one thing I’ve learned in the past year and a half or so is that all things are constantly, constantly, CONSTANTLY subject to change…but hey, we’re a week out so at this point if anything else about this year’s convention DOES change, I’m at the ‘oh well, I don’t really care’ point 😉

As for cosplay…well, most of this year is going to be laid back. I’ve got a lot of ‘mystery question marks’ on this graphic, some of which are actually new secret cosplays (though admittedly, pretty lazy ones)…others are simply “I’m wearing a cute outfit this evening that’s not really a cosplay and I haven’t quite decided which outfit it’s going to be”…

*Please note that while there are some mentions toward the end about this episode closing in on 3 hours, that is ONLY the webcast version. I cut some off-topic moments out to make the podcast version more palatable (at just barely more than 2.5 hours), but you can always view the full episode on YouTube!*
