Radio74: Season 5 Episode 7 - Convention Contention

NakaKon was a blast this year. After visiting Planet just some weeks before, and spending time at this show behind the table, it gave me time to think about the current, past, and future paths that conventions could take.

Is there still a distinct wall between those that run shows, and the vendors and creators that purchase the ability to showcase at them?
