Science fiction has always imagined the future, but fandom has changed just as much as the stories themselves.
In this episode of There's Just Something About Kansas City, we sit down with Jason Hunt, Editor-in-Chief of SciFi4Me, the Kansas City-based media platform covering science fiction, fantasy, horror, comics, movies, television, gaming, and fan culture.
Since launching SciFi4Me in 2009, Jason has built it into a destination for genre news, reviews, creator interviews, livestreams, and thoughtful commentary for fans around the world.
Jason shares how growing up immersed in science fiction inspired careers in radio, television, filmmaking, and digital media before ultimately creating a platform where fans could connect through their shared love of storytelling.
We also discuss the evolution of fandom, how streaming and social media have changed the relationship between studios and audiences, and why independent voices continue to play an important role in genre journalism.
Whether you're a lifelong sci-fi fan, a storyteller, or just curious about the magic behind the books and movies that have shaped generations, this conversation explores the power of imagination - and the communities it creates.
