Hello comic book trading card fans, YO! MTV Raps aficionados, and beard enthusiasts! Good news, I have a new podcast with the equally beardy and impressive Mike Essl where we talk about comic books. Mostly.
Read a bunch of words that I wrote below about how awesome it is and why you should listen to it.
Yeah. So. I have a podcast now.
Hang on. Lemme put on my Stan Lee mustache…
*ahem*
WELCOME DEAR LISTENERS TO THE FIRST BOMBASTIC EARTH-SHATTERING EPISODE OF ISSUES! GUARANTEED TO BE YOUR NEW FAVORITE PODCAST OF ALL TIME!!! EXCELSIOR!*
That’s better.
So what is Issues?
Issues is me and the hilarious and talented Mike Essl talking about our love of comic books, cracking wise about our mutual obsessions, me making fun of Mike for liking DC (which we ALL know is vastly inferior to Marvel), and more than a little bit of talk about Mr. T. Obviously.
We’ll undoubtedly drift in and out of various other corners of the pop culture universe like movies and video games and Mike seems to find a way to bring up the TV show Supernatural at least once per episode so definitely stay tuned for that. Mostly we want to talk about stuff we like and why we like it. We don’t want to bitch and nitpick (too much) or bash stuff we don’t like because that’s what the rest of the internet is for. Apparently.
I’ve been sitting on this one for a while and I’m really REALLY super excited about it. I hope you dig it too.
Here are some links to places you can listen and subscribe and follow and engage with us in online social conversations:
And check out the entire lineup of great shows on Mule Radio because they’re all really really good and I can’t really properly express how excited/intimidated/freaked the fuck out I am to be working with them. Get the Mule Radio iOS app and have me and ALL of the great Mule hosts in your pocket wherever you go. Because that’s not weird.
And finally, HUGE thanks to our sponsors Audible and MailChimp for making it possible for a couple of doofuses to talk about comics on the internet for your listening enjoyment (and also for sponsoring all of those other shows, but mostly ours).
P.S. My mic gets better, I promise. Hang in there.
