A cross-post for Lex & Matt's Excellent Adventure (check us out!). Matt and Dee embark on a resnackulous journey featuring pumpkin spice, Binging with Babish, and McCafe coffee drinks!  Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/lexandmattTwitter: https://twitter.com/lexandmattFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/lexandmatt/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lexandmatt/ For more of Lex & Matt, check out LexAndMattPod.com

Resnackulous is BACK(ulous)! We begin 2019 with an explosion of flavor as we try the new Chocolate Berry Cap'n Crunch, Love flavored Oreo Cookies, and Flamin' Hot Doritos. Thankfully, we space them out a little bit with some news from the world of snacks. 

This epic episode features two amazing guests! First, I stop by Chicago's Emporium Beercade to talk to Nerdcore rapper Mega Ran before he goes onstage. (More here: https://megaran.com) Next, I have a leisurly conversation with gentleman Jared Cullum. He's the writer and artist for the upcoming Fraggle Rock title from Archaia/BOOM! Studios. (More here: jaredlovestodraw.tumblr.com)     

Hiya, folks! Don't sleep on this current episode of Since Last We Spoke, but the next one... OH MAN, you're gonna love what we got! This time though, Dee and I dig on a little #Resnackulous news, and also sample the new Neapolitin M&Ms. 

On today's episode of Since Last We Spoke, Matt and Dee delve into another #Resnackulous adventure! This time around we cover: Sour Patch Kids Fire Oreo Mystery Box #2 New Diet Coke Flavors Fooji More!

It's a new year, and that usually means new beginnings, but somehow Matt and Dee end up with some very familiar Oreos... It's a #resnackulous adventure!

The 2017 #Resnackulous Fall Classic has arrived! Hear what's on the agenda for this year's gala event. Also! I talk RAKS TERROR with Jean-Pierre Virdine along with some other fun stuff.  Check it out!

This is it! The finale to 2017's Cast A Day. If you play each episode backwards in succession, it's an audiobook version of Amy Poehler's "Yes, Please." 

Corey Greene makes his triumphant return to Cast A Day. We discuss several current events in the world of comics and super hero pop culture. Listen in for Corey's take on this penultimate instalment of Cast A Day 2017! 

Terry Gant was able to shave off some time to talk (on a Wednesday no less!) about comics, storefront maintenance, and much more. Make sure to visit Third Coast Comics and see why its one of the best comic shops in Chicago!

Michi Trota joins Dee and I as an honarary Resnackunaut. The snacks we try this time around most definitely earn the "Resnackulous" title.  Find Michi's expansive catalog of work at her website, GeekMelange.com, and go from there.  My musical guest is Belgian producer and DJ, Poldoore. You must check out more of his music. You can find him on Bandcamp and Soundcloud.

The second half of my conversation with David Peters where we discuss Samurai Jack, Luke Cage, and Chance the Rapper. 

David Peters (y'know, my dad) is my guest on this episode of Cast A Day. As traffic manager at Chicago's McCormick Place, he gets a unique look at some of the cons coming to town, including C2E2. Listen in!

The Geek Show, a production by VStheUniverse, has been a Chicago staple for a few years now. Aaron J. Amendola and his crew put on a fantastic show everytime they hit the stage and screen. This time around, he let Dee and I crash his party with an exclusive #Resnackulous segment that you're sure to enjoy. 

Sean Akins is a comic expert and hip hop artist that also goes by the name Cochise Soulstar. After talking to him last year for Cast A Day 2016 (see here), his entire life was thrown into disarray. Sean was kind enough to sit down with me for this year's round of Cast A Day to discuss his journey and what the next step is.  Also, as he's having difficulty keeping up with his growing medical fees, please consider donating to his GoFundMe page. 

Cruel Valentine is THE burlesque performer to know in Chicago. I get to talk to her today and discuss a little bit of what goes into making her shows such a unique experience.  She's also provided a unique discount code for listeners of the show to get in on the action! Go to her website (cruelvalentine.com) and use promo code "CRUELADAY" for a special discount on merch!

Megan Byrd of GCC Ladies Night is my guest this time around and she's definitely a person to know. With her work as Editor-in-Chief of the Ladies Night Anthology, she opens the door for countless women who are looking to find the right way to jump into comic creation. She was also kind enough to share with us a look at the cover of Ladies Night Anthology Vol 5 by Elizabeth Perez! Find Megan on Twitter: @ComicBookCandy Ladies' Night Twitter: @GCCLadiesNight www.ladiesnightanthology.com      

Resnackulous Tuesday is here once again; we're eating snacks that could drive you insane. How do we do this? You wanna know? Oh, come see a VtU show!  THURSDAY at Stage 773, MVP Resnackunaut Dee and I will be taking part in VStheUniverse's Geek Show. There will be surprises!  Until then, listen as several of my friends and I try Zapp's chips and a new Cheetos flavor that sounds like it came from Madlibs.

Longtime friend of the show and just longtime friend, Reggie Washington calls in! We discuss a plethora of topics ranging from the mildly geeky to the deep cuts. Fair warning, sometimes he and I just communicate in 90s cartoon quotes. See if you can catch them all!

The thrilling conclusion to Cast A Day 2017's Girls Night roundtable discussion. Dee, Jonsey, Jacquinete and Annie reconvene to talk about all your favorite geeky topics and some you may not even be aware of. If you missed the first part of this year's Girls Night (billed as "part 4" because why not?) just click right here.

Once again, the girls takeover for an episode of Cast A Day! So much is discussed that one mere episode can't contain the awesomeness. Tune in to hear the first part, and enjoy as Dee, Annie, Jacquinete, and Jonsey geek out over many a topic. (Also guest starring Beemo.)

Archie Easter. Chris Martinez. And of course me, Matt Peters. What do you get when our forces are combined? Tune in and find out!

Whelp...

What better day than New Comic Book Day than to talk to a comic shop manager? Sam was great, and First Aid Comics is a wonderful store. 

On this #Resnackulous episode of Cast A Day, Matt & Dee share a bottle of Hello Kitty wine procured during an excursion to Seafood City. Also, they sample some cupcakes from the team at Nickie's Catering & Fruit Carving. Big thanks to Tom Kelly for today's image. Make sure to check out his other work on his site.

Sometimes, you just need to take a break. Thankfully, I had a chance to take a break with a good friend of mine, Jonsey! Listen as we ramble on about cartoons, C2E2, more axe throwing, and we yell at other drivers, because obviously we're in the right and they're wrong. Obviously. 

George Gant is my guest today. A fixture in Artists Alley at cons across the Chicago area and known worldwide for his comics On The Grind and The Reset Button, George is also a great dad with another baby on the way. How does he finds balance? Gaming, of course!

This episode of Cast A Day, I talk to Michael LaHood aka "Hoodie" of the Chicago Full Moon Jam. We discuss the ins and outs of fire spinning, the culture surrounding it, and of course safety while handiling high-velocity flames. Check out the schedule to see when the next Full Moon Jam is taking place.
