Our first episode of Fan Theory Queries was published on April 20th, 2022... which means we've made it one year! To celebrate, we're looking at how fan theories have actually impacted the way writers and producers approach shows and movies. Interviews with Damon Lindelof on Lost, James Gunn and Kevin Feige on Guardians 2, and Dan Erickson on Severance reveal the part fan theories have played in their creative processes.

PLUS, we list our FAVORITE theories we covered from our first year of the show!

In this episode Spencer demonstrates that despite what he says, he does not, in fact, remember much about Mary Poppins (the classic film from 1964 starring Julie Andrews) at all! But that's okay because Blythe and Lara are here to answer his questions.

Admit it. Towards the end of the series The Office, the show was getting way different from what it started out to be. In this episode, a Reddit user has an explanation for that.

Our guests, the guys from the podcast Two Chunks and a Hunk, are back to finish off the week with a theory that makes an unexpected connection. Be warned, the evidence that connects Kevin McCallister from Home Alone to Jigsaw from the Saw Movies, may shock, awe, and delight you all at once!

Our guests, the guys from the podcast Two Chunks and a Hunk, are back with another great theory, possibly even two, for this single episode. When watching Dodgeball, did you feel like you had seen White Goodman somewhere else? You are not alone. In this episode we have a fun, lively, and sometimes slightly off-topic discussion about two Ben Stiller characters that may just be the same person.
