If you're feeling frustrated and overwhelmed because your current website design is not attracting diverse customers or fostering a sense of connection, then you are not alone! Perhaps you've been relying on generic templates and stock images, failing to capture the unique experiences of your target audience. Instead of cultivating empathy and inclusivity, your website may be leaving potential customers feeling unseen and excluded. What's a heart-centered small business owner to do? Thankfully, Iris Goldfeder is here to break down the essentials of accessibility, inclusion, and empathic design. (And by here, I mean literally on the floor of FAN EXPO Chicago with Annie!) It's a must-listen for nerds, empaths, and technology haters alike. Then, Iris and Annie share lessons learned from The Mandalorian, and go searching FAN EXPO for Grogu (aka Baby Yoda aka The Child). Trust us, this is the way (to fix your website)!

Scott goes rogue from Dr. Bill to record this episode live at the Atlantic City Boardwalk Convention that he and several freaks attended May 14th-17th. They are joined by a cast of thousands (of cosplayers) and also some "normal" humans like Best Selling Author Brenda Cothern, Artist (Best selling to our table) Drew Blank and Stan the Man Lee's video game that I recorded myself playing. Also, a special appearance by the bane of parents everywhere, the one and only, world famous: Pikachu the Pokemon. Not recorded live are the hazards involved in staying an extra day in Atlantic City and finding yourself in Ballys at the roulette table at 3 in the morning.Feedback for this show can be sent to: noconsolesforoldmen@yahoo.com

We talk to writer and illustrator Drew Blank, a veteran of the convention and expo scene with a highly recognizable, humorous art style that attracts a crowd in every city. We discuss how the loss of his previous job kickstarted his career selling fan art, and how he juggles that with his true passion, writing. Drew is the author of the hit indie novel 'Memoirs of an Anti-Hero'. Find out more about him at DrewBlank.com
