Geoff Klock on Comic Geek Speak Episode 319
Comic Geek Speak episode 319 is up today and I do a short bit. This episode they are just catching up with past guests. If you are a regular reader here there is nothing discussed in the interview you do not already know: I have a D.Phil. now, I have a stock of jokes about being a Doctor (Dokkktor Klockhammer, Dr. Dre., Dr. Doom, Doctor Perfect), I like Umbrella Academy and Sugar Shock, I have been updating the blog like crazy and we now have lots of useful links and guest bloggers. Maybe the only thing I discussed there that I have not covered here is how much I love the Venture Bros., but I am planning on doing a blog on that soon in any case. Anyway, if you want to check it out, Click Here for CGS episode 319.
I'm glad that you were back on CGS, Geoff. Did they invite Tim Callahan back as well? That's a rhetorical question of course as I don't expect an answer. They blacklisted him rather than have an actual discussion about the real meaning of comics. That's why I don't listen to their two hours of nostalgic waxing and fanboy kibitzing about parallel universes and how important every major event in comics seems. Bah. In the words of Peter Rios - "There are plenty of other comics podcasts out there. Go find one of them." I wish you would go on Callahan's podcast or Word Balloon or some other show where they don't install a glass ceiling on their conversations. I wish I had more time to read comics so I could start my own podcast and invite you on - so that you could have a real conversation without subjecting the art form to the limitations of certain minds.
ReplyDeleteDid that sound bitter. Heh. I will download your episode of course. It always makes for great listening. I see they just talked to David Mack as well - I can only imagine how they appreciated the symbolism in his works. . .
ReplyDeleteI am sure Callahan would let me on his podcast.
