It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness — it was Hotelpocalypse 2016.

Come join James, Kerry, and Kim as we dissect what went right, what went wrong, and what went totally random during this year’s General Hotel Sale.

We’re going to have a lot to discuss this week on the SDConCast, as we’ll just be a few hours after this year’s Hotelpocalypse. How did it all go down? What were people’s reactions to the changes? We’ll be discussing all of that and more.

We’re also joined by Gary Miereanu, the “Super PR Guy” who helps host and put together some of your favorite panels every year at both WonderCon and San Diego Comic-Con.

We’re back! The We-Have-No-Idea-Anymore-How-Many-Years-We’ve-Been-Doing-This annual SDConCast is back for another full season, and we’re kicking things off with our annual WonderCon wrap-up. This year is especially interesting as it marks the first use of the RFID system that will be used at SDCC later this summer, and it also marks the first (and possibly only) year for WonderCon at the Los Angeles Convention Center.

So how did they work out? Join James, Kerry, and Kim to find out.
