Episode 77: Legally Binding Jawn: Are celebs subject to a social contract with their fans?
Summary: <p>In this episode Marc and Kristina discuss a question suggested to us by a friend of the podcast: Is there a social contract that exists between celebrities and their fans? We look at first what the social contract is from a purely political perspective (Locke, Rousseau and Hobbes at their finest) and then we apply it to celebrity to see how or if it works. We are talking about a number of fandoms here including YouTubers Joel and Lia, Duran Duran, and in particular the fracas that erupted around Adele cancelling her residency in Las Vegas at the eleventh hour. </p> <p>Please join us on social media @seriousproduce and @marceatspeach on Twitter and @genxtemporaneous on Insta (where we go live) and genxtemporaneous for our facebook group.</p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> --- Support this podcast: <a href="https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/marc-snediker/support" rel="payment">https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/marc-snediker/support</a>
