Episode Synopsis

An “almost live report” from the 2007 ECOF convention in Binghamton, NY. Roving reporter Jim Thompson speaks to Elmo from the huckster room. Elmo also talks to fans D.J. Howell, James G Huckenpöhler, Dick Spargur, Doug Denby, Bill Morse, John Tyner, Elaine Casella (organizer of the convention), Mike Conran, Jonathan Hart, Laurence Dunn, and Fred Lucas. Discussions include the friendships of fans, organized fandom, collecting Burroughs, the best Burroughs artists, favorite ERB worlds, meeting Johnny Weissmuller, misunderstandings about the literary Tarzan – and much more. Fans at the convention do a collective shout-out to Henry Franke, who was stationed in Afghanistan at the time.
