On the fifty-fifth episode of
Reality Bomb, Graeme Burk and Joy Piedmont, emboldened by the
#WhoAgainstGuns campaign, look around at the other ways Doctor Who
fans are doing good. First we go back in time to learn more about
the 1985 Fan Aid campaign to raise money for Ethiopian famine
relief with then-organizer, now-author and writer Paul Cornell.
Back in the present, we talk about the Whovian Running Club with
organizer Brian Biggs, and we discuss the Doctor Who Society of
Canada's work raising money for children's hospitals in Canada
at conventions with Cindy Peters. We also have a brief update on
#WhoAgainstGuns with Rachel Donner. Additionally, Koa Webster, who
won the #WhoAgainstGuns giveaway to be on Gallery of the
Underrated, takes the opportunity to talk about fake news and the
companion that couldn't with The Long Game. Plus, Emma Caywood has
a song inspired by #WhoAgainstGuns and two fangirls go to a
convention bar... and they have a LOT to say! Listen now!
