Go Fact Yourself - jarrett hill & Brea Grant

Get ready for some sci-fi and songs on a brand new episode of Go Fact Yourself – exclusively for our beloved MaxFun Members!

jarrett hill is one of the hosts of the podcast “FANTI.” The show is all about the complicated feelings around fandom. Jarrett is also an accomplished journalist whose work has appeared in many publications – but his biggest scoop was telling the world about Melania Trump plagiarizing a speech from Michelle Obama. His latest project is a book with his co-host Tre’Vell Anderson about historically black phrases.

Brea Grant is one of the hosts of the podcast “Reading Glasses.” The show doesn’t just feature discussions about and recommendations for books; it’s also about getting advice on the best ways to read. Brea will share one tip about the best way to read in the bathtub while on your Kindle. She’ll also explain why making and engaging with horror movies helps her overcome personal issues.

Our guests will answer trivia, taking horror to new heights.
