Today's episode is halfway brought to you by ComicManAndy, one of the hosts of Pinky's Out Podcast. He is currently running a giveaway on his YouTube channel and in order to enter he asked that we make a video listing some of our favorite dad jokes. So our Meat & Potatoes will consist of a healthy serving of dad jokes! Also, I got a flood of incredibly entertaining Riley memes from the picture of her reacting to being proposed to. We'll be sharing all of them and she'll be choosing some of her favorites!

This is not click bait. You heard it right. This episode marks the beginning of the end for my assistant-to-the-host Riley Sloan. It has been a great ride, but this has been a long time coming. Don't be sad. Every journey must have its end. And with that end, marks the beginning of a new journey. I'm sure you all will join me in helping usher Riley into this new journey...BOOM!!!

We made it to our 50th episode. A bit surreal and unbelievable considering how this all started out. We got the idea for the title/topic of this episode from Comics With Bueller when he suggested making an Origin Story video based on how we got into the comic book/pop culture/podcasting communities. How we started our own show and how it has affected our lives. It's only appropriate that we invited back to the show, our dear friends Aman and Chandler - two nerds themselves who are raising 3 children who are just discovering the joys of comic books and nerdom. These two have been our longest fans and we're so happy they could join us!

Today we welcome one of the Four Horsemen of the YouTube Comic Book Community, Rod from Just A Rican And His Comics. Rod is a pillar in the community and even helped us when we were first getting started. He has a ton of comic book knowledge that he shares on a daily basis on his YouTube channel. He knows a thing or two, because he’s read a thing or two. One of the nicest guys around, and I get to interview him! Enjoy!

Christmas has come and gone. Presents have been exchanged. The wrapping paper discarded…and we still have a tree up in the living room? WTF?! Also, a very spoiler-heavy episode for anything Star Wars related. This includes Mandalorian Season 1 and Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. Also, we go live on IG and Riley gets one more Christmas gift – I know Rod the Rican would be proud!
