Hi, I'm Dane. I committed to 2 episodes releasing today.
I shouldn't have. By my own time-management errors, it may be 1-2 more days. I need more time to polish them.
Trying to remember, at least I didn't collect $1mil+ for a frog comic that's 2.5 years past due.
Here's the final branding for the pod's launch, which maintains the "old horror comic" theme that's been part of the Forced Adversity concept since it was conceived 3 years ago.

How dare you? We aren't even allowed to call this a Christmas Special!
More radical liberal Bidenist propaganda, just like Fauci's mind-control injections.
Just recorded the episode on violent video games & the creation of the ESRB.
We chose the order of episodes based purely on our interest level so far, but we're already seeing figures pop up again & again.
Old Goatface, Hitty-Cent, and perhaps the most villainous of all...
I never doubted that I chose the best possible co-host for this pod, but after making them read my overly-verbose, pretentious, masturbatory script for Episode 0 today, @GM_MorganV deserves an award.
The Comics Code episode got out of hand. So now it's 2 episodes. We're not sorry.
Recording is coming along nicely, though. Every episode we record, the more excited we are to share it with people.
Look for platform announcements soon.
Recording the Comics Code episodes*, this particular anecdote stuck with Morgan & me. EC Comics head Bill Gaines was a hero & a rebel, ahead of his time.
Fredric Wertham gets more historical real estate, but Gaines deserves more respect.
*yep it's 2 episodes now
What would you want to learn about the era in the 1950s that saw Fredric Wertham take his anti-comic book crusade to the US Senate, and eventually led to The Comics Code?
Recording the episode tomorrow!
Dude had some weird takes...😬
