what can I say about the shortbox? I discovered the pod around 8 years ago and have been loving the evolution of the show. it is a perfect show for someone who is new to comics or just love learning the different aspects of the medium. Now about the crew. Badr may not be able to pronounce names, but he has come along in his interview skills, now able to talk to some big names in the industry or the underground scene. Ed knows his artists and knowledge of methods and is spot on giving shade to Badr. Ashely is the queen of the pod; quiet in the bg but can still deliver with the boys and willing to admit that she can throw some names around like they are in her rolodex. Cesar is a man of many voices, the geezer, old soul of infinite knowledge and the one who can give and take shit. Love the cast guys, keep it up and hopefully you won't get too big for your britches.
Excellent podcast if you like comics and humor. This group knows their stuff and each episode is unique and fun. Give them a listen!
