Starr Struck Radio

We did it! We're back! Ben and I recorded our first podcast episode in about 7 years and it's finally live [for paid subscribers] on my Substack. To listen you can become a Substack subscriber here. In addition to one new podcast per month you'll also get access to:

• 4 New exclusive, autobiographical comics per month (1 per week, none of which are shared elsewhere)

• Monthly newsletter containing curated lists of the simple pleasures that are bringing me joy (#simplejoysoftheweek for OGs!)

• Q&As and community conversations

• Conversations in the comment section of the newsletters

• My gratitude! Because being a subscriber means that you believe in me and my work and that means the world to me.

Thanks so much for being an OG podcast listener!

xoxo, Mary Catherine
