Enjoy!

Hi.

Just a couple quick notes here. When I came up with the idea to do the show I wasn’t really sure it was a good idea, or that it was something I’d want to do, or that it was something anyone would want to hear. With the first episode out last week I feel like I can safely put the last of those three concerns to bed. A ton of you seemed to check out the show and have nice things to say about it, so thank you so much. We have a lot more coming.

And because we got asked a lot, yes, it will be going out on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Youtube, and all the rest soon. We want to make sure every episode is exclusive to the newsletter subscribers for a month first. Giving me your email address has it’s perks.*

*Depending on your definition of “perk.”

In other news, we are doing our first livestream this Wednesday with the wonderful and talented Ryan Stegman. And that’s the link to our brand new Youtube Channel where we will be hosting our livestreams, posting our podcast episodes, and maybe more. So you should go ahead and absolutely smash that like and subscribe button to pieces, as the influencers say.

If you don’t know who Ryan is, you’re missing out. He is the brilliant superstar artist on stuff like VENOM, SUPERIOR SPIDER-MAN, and the recently released smash hit VANISH. And he’s very funny and handsome, so you should definitely come hang out with us because maybe that stuff is contagious. It’s at 6pm Eastern and you can tune in live while we discuss… I don’t know? What do you want us to discuss? You can reply to this email with questions or show up and ask some in the comments of the livestream! And if we ask your question on the air you will be entered to win a very cool prize!

We’re going to do these regularly going forward but they will probably only be for paying subscribers to participate in. The rest of you will have to be content to watch it after the fact. So come hang out! Man, I hope I don’t suck… I really hope Ryan doesn’t suck.

Hope to see you there.

Stay safe. Take care of each other. Like and subscribe and like and subscribe and like and subscribe and like and subscribe and like and…
