Fan Effect
Beyond Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Gaming and Tech, the brains behind Fan Effect are connoisseurs of categories surpassing the nerdy. Brilliant opinions and commentary on all things ‘geek’, but surprising knowledge and witty arguments over pop culture, Star Trek, MARVEL vs DC, and a wide range of movies and TV shows. Based in the beautiful beehive state, Fan Effect celebrates Utah's unique fan culture as it has been declared The Nerdiest State in America by TIME, and is hosted by KSL Movie Show's Andy Farnsworth and KSL Podcasts' KellieAnn Halvorsen. Fan Effect is sponsored by Megaplex Theatres, Utah's premiere movie entertainment company.
Sundance Money Making Sense - Tiger
While KellieAnn is recovering from surgery, our good friend Heather Kelly is guest hosting Fan Effect this February with her limited Money Making Sense series live from Sundance 2025. This episode is ”Tiger.” Filmmaker Loren Waters tells the story of the Native American family who started the t-shirt company "Tiger" in 1977. It was a very small operation, working 24/7 to fill orders for JC Penny in its heyday. Learn why the company went under in 1990 and watch "Tiger" through the Sundance Film Festival and at SXSW later this spring in this conversation with Loren. The brains behind Fan Effect are connoisseurs of categories surpassing nerdy with a goal to publish a weekly "What to Watch on the Weekend" minisode taken from KSL-TV's Friday segment, and two deep-dives a month on shows, creative works, artists, local events, and other fandom topics. Fan Effect is sponsored by Megaplex Theatres, Utah's premiere movie entertainment company.
