The Grit City crew is back with laughs, stories, and Tacoma pride! This week, Jeff, Scott, and Joey talk about the Washington State Horror Con, favorite guests, local creators like Ken Carlson, and the upcoming Grit City Comic Show.

The conversation swings from celebrity encounters (Elvira, Tracy Lords, Lance Henriksen) to Tacoma’s vibrant convention scene — plus, Mike joins in with a hilarious breakdown of his beard care routine, Squirrely Dan cosplay, and Halloween costume chaos.

It’s everything you love about GCP: local events, nerd talk, beards, and bad jokes over good beer.
