Founded in 2015, the Keeping Friendship Magic (KFM) project fuses pop culture and fandom with social science to delve deeper into how to bring the lessons and values from our favorite properties to reality. After years of panels, conventions, and even a sociology conference, the project has come to the Podcast format. Each episode finds host Forward Progress along with co-host Nova Rose joined by special guests to discuss a variety of topics related to fandom and pop culture.
