Description

This week we talk about the 1985-1995 comic strip Calvin and Hobbes by way of the 1992 collection The Indispensable Calvin and Hobbes. The strip is totally inseparable from a discussion of its medium and the merchandising-averse guy who made it.
Our theme music was composed by Nick Lerangis.Advertise on OverdueSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
