Hosts: Amanda Bacchi (@backflip_bacchi - www.backflipbacchi.com), &…
Not gonna lie, it got a bit CRAZY on this month‘s podcast. With a RETRO theme, the gang discussed all things that made them who they are today, pop culture wise, of course!! With a variety of ages celebrating their childhoods from 1970's to early 2000's, we did a ton of reminiscing, and maybe a little arguing, about who's generation had it best!! From Tintin to Crash Bandicoot to Pokemon to Tomb Raider to Youtube, no pop culture milestone was left unturned. #90skidftw Talking about how good magazine and mailing lists (like actual mail) were to find out new bands or games from the reviews and DEMO DISKS!!! Aw man. ALSO, how much I dislike video gamer streamers and that there is now a generation who is being raised by them..... *rant* lol Luke dropping the truth bombs about back in the day going to blockbuster and garage sales picking up random games and movies and not knowing anymore than the blurb on the back. No trailers, no internet. The absolute joy in finding a totally random and new... ahh the memories...

Caught up with author, Amanda Louise, who has been working on her inspirational debut book 'Be the Black Sheep'!! Had a great time reminiscing about our university days in Hervey Bay, and didn't realise just how much that time shaped our lives!! We have both retained so many of the lessons learned when we were studying mass media & public relations over 13 years ago(!). Spoke about what lead Amanda to the exploration and promotion of the 'Black Sheep' lifestyle, and why she decided to write the book. We then had a chat about a few of her inspirations, including Walt Disney, Tony Robbins, and Tim Ferriss (author of 'The Four Hour Work Week). Amanda has done all the research and ground work for her readers, including attending motivational US style motivational conventions run by Tony Robbins, and the Aussie women's creative conference, 9 to Thrive. We discussed our shared passion for helping people, and being a part of positive communities!! Amanda has been working on her social media presence, providing videos, live streams, interviews, and posts designed to help people overcome fear, visualise success, and most of all, that it is ok to be different. Make sure to check out 'Be the Black Sheep' today!! Website: http://www.betheblacksheep.com.au/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/betheblacksheepau/

**PODCAST CONTAINS SPOILERS** Testing out the old audio recorder in the car on the way home from the movies after watching the new Mission Impossible: Fallout!! Calling this test a fail as the audio was really off, so next time we will just have to contain ourselves until we get home (or take some notes or something!). The indicators as we were waiting to turn were just wayyyyy too annoying. And it might be good to have a few minutes to gather our thought for clarity!! We both really enjoyed the movie, found it had a fast moving and often unpredictable plot, but was perhaps just a little long. The characters were fun, and it was interesting to see Henry Cavill try to break his Superman mold (and why exactly he NEEDED that moustache!).

Caught up with one of our best comic con friends, Paul Eiding, to chat about his latest projects!! Chatted about his voice acting role as Reflux in Incredibles 2, working with his family and theatre friends to make massively viral videos (and fund raise for LA park conservation projects!), and the highs and lows of his venture into the world of comic book writing on Blastosaurus, with New Zealand artist, Richard Fairgray. We also spoke briefly about his voice acting role as Perceptor in the original Transformers cartoons, as Grandpa Max on Ben 10, and his work in video games such as Snake from Metal Gear Solid, the 'Vault-Tec' guy from Fallout, the 'arrow to the knee' guy from Skyrim, the 'construct additional pylons' guy from Starcraft etc etc etc (too many to mention in one pod!). Forgot to chat about his role as Pa Kent in upcoming DC animated movie The Death of Superman... oops, hopefully he will let us call him back another time soon!! Was lovely to catch up, and we very much appreciated Paul taking time out of his busy schedule to chat to us about all his exciting creative projects!!

If you are about supporting lovely ladies, Aussie comics, AND kickstarter campaigns (which I KNOW you are!) then do we have a pod for you!! Had a fun chat to Aussie web-comic illustrator, Jana Hoffmann, & writer, Jess Cate about creating and playing in their very own comic book universe 'Heart of Millyera'!! We spoke about their involvement in the Adelaide Ladies Comic Book Club, an upcoming Steampunk convention, as well as their fully funded kickstarter for mini comic 'The Many Adventures of Ida Blaker'... READ ‘HEART OF MILLYERA’ ONLINE NOW: http://www.heartofmillyera.com/ SUPPORT THE KICKSTARTER!! ~ https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1083161341/the-many-adventures-of-ida-blaker-mini-comic?ref=5kglbh Jana & Jess at Free Comic Book Day 2017 *** Heart of Millyera is the first webcomic by Jess Cate and Jana Hoffmann. The story began in 2014, when Jana and Jess were discussing their mutual love for mystical sea-beasties. Millyera was born out of a fascination with the mysterious universe that dwells in the deepest oceans. The world of The Colonies sprung up out of our desire to create a comic with a setting that is both steam-punk, and yet proudly Australian. Milly and her friends are a team of adventurous, misfit geniuses, who we hope will win your hearts. Heart of Millyera is an epic undertaking, which will carry you out of the depths of the ocean, across deserts, through the dusty streets of bustling towns, across the seas on trade ships, and out into the recesses of space. I am not sure that we can squeeze any more adventure in, but we will sure as hell try! Check out page 1 below, and make sure to head over to the website for more Heart of Millyera*** *many apologies for the technical difficulties (which you will hear a ding ding noise where it has been cut together and the robot voices taken out!) still learning about the audio over here!! Many thanks to the ladies for sticking with me while I figured it all out!! ~ABx

Happy Easter AND Happy Birthday to Aussie comic book legend, Gary Chaloner!! Paul and I sat down with Gary at ACAF to have a chat about his life in art/comics, going way back to his early art school years, newspaper strip 'Jeff Little the Smiling Policeman', his run with imprint Cyclone Comics, learning on the go with the development of the direct comic book market in Australia, Jackaroo, working for publishers in the US, work with Ashley Wood (Judge Dredd, Medieval Spawn, Zombies vs Robots), Darkhorse Downunder - Aussie anthology, work/life/family balance, web comics, and his work with Will Eisner. There is some wonderful wisdom in this one for anyone working in the comic book industry, especially in Australia, including creating networks to get work, rolling on from project to project, practice makes perfect, talent will only get you so far, and as you already know, you need determination, drive, and a partner who is willing to help make those tough life decisions. Thanks again, Gary! Hope you are having a great birthday, look forward to talking to you again soon! ~Featured Image L-R: Glenn Ford (Frew Publications), Gary Chaloner, & Dr Paul Mason ~This podcast is the last of the ACAF series!

Australian Comic Arts Festival (ACAF) Kid Phantom Q&A panel that turned into a casual chat/podcast on Sunday 11 Feb 2018... Who was there: Dr. Paul Mason (Artist), Andrew Constant (Writer - not murdered!), Glenn Ford (Frew Publishing), Robbie Miles (Producer/Fan), Antonio DiDio (Fan/Emotional Support Officer), Trevor Clark (Fan), Luke Geaghan (Fan) & Amanda Bacchi (Moderator)... and several other unheard audience members!!! What we discussed: - The 'Comics for Kids' panel earlier in the day - The success that has been the first 3 Kid Phantom issues - Background into the writing and art of the book - How the stories have been set up and how/why - Influences - Costume drawing - A little history of kids comics (internationally speaking), engaging with a young audience - Popularity and differences in the different models of distribution: subscription, newsagent & comic book shop - What the fans are looking forward to!! http://kidphantom.com.au/
As we sat in the drawing room at the Australian Comic Arts Festival, the topic soon turned to zombies and survival (AKA why the kids in The Walking Dead are doing it all wrong). Politics were discussed, as were tanks, our own strategies, and a few of the different comic book/tv takes on the issue. Christian Read will probably be ok in his mountain lair, Paul and I are joining the boys from his Thai kickboxing gym who catch fish in the Brisbane River from bows and arrows they make themselves, and joining us at the end there was Trevor Clark... not sure where you are from sir, but god speed! *The name of the BBC zombie show we couldn't remember was 'In The Flesh' ;) Recorded: Sat 10 Feb 18, Drawing Room, Australian Comic Arts Festival, Canberra.
Join the gang from the monthly pop culture meetup at Brisbane Square Library (Dr Paul, Brad, Tess, Michel, Jeremy, Jacob, & Oliver) as they break down the weekly pop culture news! Chatting Westworld, Monkey Magic, Black Panther, Deadpool, Han Solo, & Lemony Snicket!! (Spoilers) Since (Amanda) was away sick, Paul seemed to have lost total control in places so there were a few cuts, a lot of people talking over each other (manners people!), and several conversations happening at once (oops). But, all in all, fun times! Haha. Let's do it again next month! Topics: Deadpool & Han Solo trailer breakdown Black Panther Review (kinda non-spoilery, but not?!) Westworld Season 3 anticipation/breakdown from Jacob & Oliver Monkey Magic Reboot: New Legends of Monkey (ABC iView/Netflix) Lemony Snicket (depresssssinggg!! but Season 2 yey!!)

Post Australian Comics Arts Festival, Monday afternoon chat with the gents from Gestalt Publishing! Justin Randall (artist - Changing Ways, colourist - Eldridch Kid) and Gary Proudly (writer - Proud Heart) discuss the relaxed nature of the convention, and how it was more a natural creator space than the usual convention sell. It was great to be surrounded by people who were so engaged in learning aspects of the comic craft, with there being so many aspects they were able to pick up themselves as well (with particular note to the 'Pitching Comics to Film' panel host, Robbie Miles). ACAF was a solid reminder to all comic creators both in attendance as guests, and as participants, that while we may be separated by land, we really do care about each other and our industry.
