So, Jade come to me and told me I'd be a believer in this theory that marketing is central to anime, not just in the medium but in the stories themselves (and even in the real world). After dropping probably the best debut episode in this pod's history, I'm sold on the theory and will be leading the Jade For President club. Come find out why I'm throwing five stars all over this one!
The final half of the Giant-Size first interview from Connor and Josh about Mimi Green, Diva Dread, horse knee physics, fucked up syntax, drawing fatness with love and thinness ppl can actually detect, shout outs to the teamm, and ALL your questions!
PPRE ORDER BY 4/20
"You can't invite the 4 hour podcast man on your podcast and not get 4 hours" kind of sums up this honest, touching, and at times intentionally challenging talk through a "book for the Ozempic age". Josh and Connor talk about the inspiration, friendship, and life experiences that led to a debut we're affectionately genre-ing as Diva Dread.
If you haven't been reading Ride or Die, it's OK; everyone makes mistakes. But Mars (the creator behind this sweet and slightly demonic street race romance) is here to ki about his love for Novas, what it means to not want to be seen, who is the most fun to write and where he's driving this story we should all be strapped into.
You can read Ride or Die at RideorDieComic.com, or find it on Webtoon and Tapas
You ever notice how many Black characters are in the military, or cops, or CIA, or *something*? We dig into the pattern and our thoughts on what might be behind it. Come for an Excellent chat!
CREATOR INTERVIEW: I sit down with DJ, podcaster, comic critic and creator DJ Benhameen for an hour of exploring the history and the panels of Jimi Hendrix: Purple Haze.
What does it mean to be a real Space Opera, why do we not want to get sued, What is a triplehippo? And why was Kieron Gillen scared?

I'VE MISSED YOU!! We've upgraded to being a 'face on the thumbnail' podcast. Welcome to thee first episode of Ash& where I sit and get grilled by Khalid about new formats, upcoming episodes, how redecorating can make you realise you need to move, and why I didn't listen to him and do this 2 years ago.
Yan is back. You're gonna want to be to.
Everything this pod is good at happens in here. Do not miss.
THIS IS IT.
Thank you for rocking with me for 3 years and 8 seasons of this era!
This making this pod has taught me so much about myself and creativity and community, that this is the perfect way to let go of this version, and step into what's next.
Connor and I chat it up a little bit, but give it about twenty mins and something clicks. We lean in. Hit play for a discussion about ambitions, reality, our wins and flaws, the gap between idea and reality, and all the good and bad it's filled with.
Come in.
Thank you.
SO originally these were meant to just be a "during the event" thing, but being evil is actually quite fun, turns out. so here's how we'd kill the superhero community. If you really love Alpha Flight maybe give this one a skip 😅
Title's pretty clear. It's timely! It's good. Get in here friend.
All your questions answered. Maybe not how you expected.
This is NOT one to miss, one of the biggest laughs I've had this season. Grab your headphones and sit in on this peak XOW rollercoaster.
This one really benefitted from me editing out most of the Marley interruptions, but it's a good ass question and the perfect guest!
Chile my entire XOW library has disappeared. I'll be back to throw an outro on this once I fix all. the file inability issues, but I left in the important bits
You're gonna want to hit play, bestie.
yoooooo, just. listen.
It's Trae! It's time
She's been stinking up the womb, the room and even her tomb with that back-to-back attitude. Ratings terrible yet the series stays being renewed. I'm over it. We talk about how we get her through the window AND the mf wall.
