This isn't about SF or anything really, just radio play lines of a few convention organisers freaking out and repeating themselves a lot, because one of the guest stars apparently has history with another one and they don't want to share space. Guests are announced long before three days ahead of the event, so I'm not sure why it took until this point to happen. The matter is resolved so unimpressively I didn't notice and I was surprised when the lines ended. I have no idea why Irish themed event has been tacked on, as it's not relevant except to explain why the cast have names like Maeve and Connor, while the setting is supposed to be America.
The tale may appeal to others more than it did to me. This is an unbiased review.
