An Editorial Note:
The holidays are a special time but they can also be horrific for some people. I personally deal with season depression which has been casually making itself part of my holiday traditions for the past few years now. When I recognized that I’ve been able to handle it better.
Originally we planned on having the inconsistent seasonal depression as more of a through-line – but plans changed. We had a lot of weird and fun guests, so our goal wasn’t to treat seasonal depression – or non-seasonal depression, flippantly, in case it comes off that way. We just became focused on 1. stringing all of the prerecorded bits together and 2. not having to rerecord anything to get this done on time.
If you do struggle with depression, or you don’t have family or friends you can comfortably see during the holiday season, my thoughts and prayers are with you and I’ll be there for you as best I can. If you need to reach out to someone this holiday season, I’m here, so feel free to do so.

Episode 90: The League of Losers

This week Luke’s zombie related holiday depression plans go awry because he didn’t do research beforehand so he talks with Devin about Marvel Team-Up, the League of Losers, how 2004 was a big year for characters and more.

Episode 88: Nick Fury Vapes In Space

  • Sorry this was late, recording was a hellish nightmare with the internet randomly breaking up.
