In this first episode, Colin and Donald speak with cartoonist and artist Kathy MacLeod about inventing the cartoon versions of herself, why she hasn’t sought out a community of fellow comic book artists in Bangkok, and how painting the sex-tourists of Soi Cowboy helped her clarify why she makes art in the first place.

The hosts discuss why they started the podcast, and Colin tries to make sense of "attitude adjustment" under Thailand's military rule. Donald also explains what he and the astronauts of Harbinger 1 have in common.
