In this episode of Surviving Creativity, Scott Kurtz and special guest Steve Hamaker call Brad Guigar to discuss a news item in which an editorial cartoonist in Guigar's home town of Philadelphia is named in a defamation lawsuit. It's an interesting discussion of Philly politics that quickly detours into Baltimore's chief export (Murder), HBO's "The Wire," getting food at cons, getting propositioned at cons, tragedies such as peanut allergies and The Herblock documentary, convention pranks and the best way to end a conversation.
