Hi, Sartorial Geeks! The Sartorial Geek Podcast is back with our second ever live episode!

This week, we’re live from LeakyCon, an amazing Harry Potter-themed con for fans in Dallas, TX. We’re chatting with Taekia Blackwell, COO of Mischief Management: the convention company that makes LeakyCon possible!

 

Mischief Management has been producing fan events since 2009. Their event lineup caters to a wide range of fandoms, from BroadwayCon to Con of Thrones. Taekia takes our questions and tells us all about what goes into making a convention happen and how Mischief Management was able to build a community of fans around small ideas. A lot of blood, sweat, tears, and love go into these events, and they wouldn’t be possible without this incredible team!

 

You can learn more about Mischief Management on their website, mischiefmanagement.com. Here, you can see all of their events and when and where to catch them. (Next up: AlienCon in Baltimore!) Make sure to check them out on social media at facebook.com/mischiefmgmt and @MischiefMgmt on Twitter.

 

Thanks again for hanging out with us, and please help us out by subscribing, leaving a review, or checking out our Patreon at www.patreon.com/sartorialgeek.

 

Stay nerdy.

The Sartorial Geek is heading to SDCC!

The Sartorial Geek is hosting our very first live podcast episode at SDCC! Unfortunately the entire team can’t be there this year, but me (Jordan from Jordandené) and my husband Joey (aka the wonderful designer behind everything we do) are so excited to spend this week at San Diego Comic Con. The Sartorial Geek won’t have an official booth setup, but we’ll be at the con every day and trying to meet as many people as possible.

Please come say hi if you see us (you can find updates about where we’re hanging out and what I’m wearing each day in the Jordandené IG stories).
