Description

Recorded live at Comfort Love and Adam Withers' hotel room after Day 1 of New York Comic Con, join Ian and Kris Naudus as they catch up with these two longtime friends of Comic Geek Speak.  As is the case with most of these types of episodes the topics are all over the place and off the cuff, so language, opinions, and tangents are all our own. This includes discussion on how conventions have changed along with the audience attending them since the pandemic, how media itself has adapted and evolved, what it's like for Comfort and Adam returning to NYCC after a three year absence, the age of the average con-goer may be decreasing, what the future may hold for comics, films, publishing and conventions in a world of DC Fandome and similar digital announcements, the demographic difference found on digital platforms like Webtoon and how "shipping" is definitely a thing, tons of Hamilton references, Twitter is not the real world for an artist, how much in-person interaction still matters, Jem is still excitement, mochi and bubble tea are delicious, appreciation versus appropriation, and much much more.
