In this episode, I chat with Jake “The Nice Guy” Garabedian—a kind soul with a big heart and a deep love for cosplay. Jake shares how his California upbringing and Armenian roots shaped his journey, and how becoming characters like Star-Lord—and now Superman—lets him bring joy to others, especially kids.
We talk about the emotional weight of wearing the cape, what it means to embody Superman with authenticity, and why this character still inspires so many. Jake also shares his thoughts on James Gunn’s upcoming Superman film, the excitement around the new suit reveal, and what it means for fans who’ve been waiting for a hopeful take on the Man of Steel.
Jake’s story is full of heart, creativity, and the genuine desire to make the world a little brighter—one smile at a time.
