As a special feature of The Fanbase Weekly podcast, the Fanbase Feature focuses on and celebrates a specific element of geek culture.

In this Fanbase Feature, The Fanbase Weekly co-hosts Bryant Dillon and Phillip Kelly are joined by special guests Erik Amaya (co-host, Tread Perilously) and Chris Thorne (sketch card artist, Star Wars, The Walking Dead) to participate in a thorough discussion regarding Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior (1981) in light of the film’s 40th anniversary, with topics including whether Max is truly a hero, the theme of humanity’s self-destruction, and more. (Beware: SPOILERS for Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior abound in this panel discussion!)
