We just recorded an episode on Halloween Music and did a 45 minute deep dive on the Monster Mash and its singer Bobby “Boris” Pickett and in 21 years of being a public entertainer it’s one of my fave things I’ve done cause it’s just so silly and heartwarming
Our next book club just in time for Spooky Season is Alan Moore's run on The Saga of Swamp Thing, issues 21-64. Instead of a deep dive on the character's history, we're doing a deep dive on this specific seminal piece of comic book work. You can get it in trades, on the DC Digital app, or however you read comics.

We're finally recording our Cyclops episode this Friday and I don't think I've ever done more research for an episode and still feel not ready cause it's just so much. Can't recommend Jay and Miles X-plain the X-men enough because they make it look easy and I know I'll barely scratch the surface of a thing they've mastered.. X-men continuity is by far some of the most dense stuff there is in American comic books. Oh and X-men 97 season 2 premiered and it’s awesome.
We are doing a new episode feature called Jake’s Anime Club! Our first show will be season one of Witch Hat Atelier!!! Jake is really excited about the system of magic it incorporates so now I’m very excited too!
