Vrai Kaiser
I'm Vrai Kaiser, writer by profession and analytic nerd for the love of the game. I've been published in online magazine The Alligator, and am currently working to get my first novel published.

Go Crows! The Internet’s Only Smallville Podcast – Season 1, Episodes 18-21
Starting a new year by finally reaching the end of a season.

Are we the first people to point this out? No. But we did challenge ourselves not to use just The One Joke.
Drunk Book Club: Carry On
An academic specializing in fan studies and a trans media critic walk into a Harry Potter fanfic. Chaos ensues. Special thanks to Ceslatoil for commissioning this episode! You can find out more about commissions on our Patreon.
