For now, let’s talk about another cool person!

---

What is your name, the kind of content you create on the internet, and the name of that or those pieces of media?

Chris Meharg aka Animescience101. I mostly blog, but I have made a few youtube videos. What I do is basically the mythbusters of anime.

---

When did you first start enjoying the media of which you provide a voice for online?

About 5-10 years ago.

---

What made you choose the media that you communicate your thoughts online?

I like to write, and felt it was the easiest media for me to work in as I know next to nothing about making video.

---

Has it been difficult to find a voice in the online fandom?

Finding my voice wasn’t to hard since what I do is really just an offshoot of what I do in the classroom on a daily basis as a science teacher.

---

When did you start gathering an audience? (Even a small amount of views or subscribers is an audience.)

I think it started with the panels I would do at conventions, and then by discovering the anime blogsphere.

---

How do handle the online discourse of anything? Media/Social Justice/Fandoms/ETC

I pretty much tend to stay out of it for the most part.

---

What are two posts/podcast episodes/pieces of art/etc that you are very proud of?
