You'd think after Universal FanCon spectacularly crashed and burned, co-founders Robert Butler and Jamie Broadnax would keep a low profile and not say anything. Particularly since every time they speak on the issue, they make it worse. You'd probably think that because you have the intelligence to know that the more you speak the more you make yourself look bad. You probably also have an ounce of shame that's apparently completely absent from anyone involved with ScamCon. Late Monday afternoon, Vulture posted this piece The Story Behind FanCon's Controversial Collapse and it makes everyone involved look even worse.  First there's Butler inexplicably blaming a "lack of support" from the blerd community as the cause of the collapse and not the fact that he used 80% of the Kickstarter funds as a deposit for the Baltimore Convention Center. Then there's Jamie claiming she's the one who informed the hotels that they couldn't pay their $70,000 bill even though she previously claimed she had no idea how or why the

http://directory.libsyn.com/episode/index/id/6506819 Fifty-Two. That's how many people were listed on the about page for Universal FanCon.

Topics Films that screened at SXSW that you should check out Black Panther becomes the highest grossing super hero film and why other studios are going to panic Ava DuVernay getting tapped for DC's The New Gods  What diversity and inclusion means in the film industry #MarchForOurLives is a bitter pill for black and other non-white people to watch Remember how Joe Scarborough felt about black activists and protesting police violence  When adults lean on kids to do what adults need to do Misdemeanor Mike is back at it again and it's pretty bad.

%CODE_IC599% We're one episode away from the 600th Insanity Check. But before that, Kriss is running a gauntlet of podcasting with 7 days straight of podcasting and what better way to bring that run to a close than with the person he talks to most with: Host of the Unanimous Decision Podcast, Dpalm Look the world didn't end with Dpalm being a guest this week but you know we can never just do a regular show. So we threw out the show notes and we covered a bunch of random (but oddly related things) from the Oscars still having a problem with black movies to Michael Steele realizing his party is racist to the stupidity with the "gun debate".  We even throw in some comic book talk. Like I said, we were all over the place but it was a great show so make sure you subscribe and listen.

From the high of Black Panther to the lows of yet another mass shooting in America.  Topics: Thanks to everyone who came out to watch Black Panther with us at NegroCon 1.5 Black Panther is breaking records Another day and another school shooting in America Please don't arm teachers.
