It is time for your bi-weekly Gutter Boys fix, sweaty. We're joined by LA-based comic writer Aubrey Sitterson to discuss his upcoming crowdfunded comics, Beef Bros (with Tyrell Cannon & Fico Ossio) and Stoned Master (with Chris Moreno), as well as his Dark Horse run with No One Left to Fight (with Fico Ossio) and the recently announced Savage Hearts (Jed Dougherty & Lovern Kindzierski). In the first half, the boys go over some recent comic names in the news who seem to have a penchant for sexualizing children (and yes it's comicsg@te related), promising non-profit business models for comics, and the problem with charging creators to be published in anthologies.

Back at it with another heaping of GUTTER BOYS! We're joined by our special guest, Sam Szabo. Sam is a Chicago-based cartoonist and master of yuck-yucks. She's created a large body of work exploring her life and experiences through her auto-bio comics, discussing relationships, nostalgia, and her transition as a woman. We go through it all, from her early years in college, her origin story of how she became a cartoonist dedicated to a life of making comics, and her love for The Tick. We also shout out a few creators that have sent us their work over the last few weeks and take a quick dip into the murky waters of NFT.

You can check out Sam's work on Instagram @brainboogerindustries. Her recent comic strip, Death & Taxonomy, is available to read online at awrycomics.com, and you can also support her work on Patreon or purchase her comics at Big Cartel.
