About

  Why do we revisit the things we loved as kids? What’s the lasting power of our favorite TV shows and movies? A new podcast from Connecticut Public looks for answers in a big, purple dinosaur. It’s called Generation Barney.  This hour, we listen to episode 3 of the podcast – “Love 2 Hate.”  And later, we’re joined by an expert in anti-fandom, Emily Contois, who explains why people connect over shared hatred.  GUESTS: Emily Contois, Media studies professor and faculty in residence, University of Tulsa  Support the show: http://wnpr.org/donateSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
