A Midwestern girl at heart, she lives outside Washington, DC with her two kids, two cats, and one economist husband. With a Masters in Organization Development, you'd think her office would be more organized, but, no. She's continually surrounded by stacks of books, knitting yarn, half-filled tea cups, and sleeping cats.

Patrick Millikin in conversation with Eli Cranor and Scott Phillips
Originally recorded 08/18/24 After a forced hiatus, the boys are back and ready to roll up on you with their particular geek magic. Blood and sugar sold separately. Stephe opened things up with an in depth account of his trip to SDCC in July. This included Preview Night, Funko Fundays and drinking in San Diego. During this part of the conversation, Bruce took a moment to expound on his Corey Feldman as a performance artist theory. Hey, Bruce got new glasses...the Robert Downey, Jr. kind. There was another edition of Old Men and Their Maladies We discussed Gen X being forced to square dance in gym class and the chaos it created for dyslexics. Stephe had encounters with homeless folks in San Diego. They did not go how you might expect. Finally, Bruce explained the reason for the long hiatus. His mom passed away and the guys reminisced a bit about Mama Jane. She was a fan, even when she had no idea what we were talking about. She knew we were having fun and that's all that mattered to her. Bruce steered the ship out of maudlin with a mention of author, Eli Cranor, and his Arkansas crime noir. Finally, Bruce pointed Stephe toward the poster art of the dearly departed Armadillo World Headquarters. The legendary Austin hippie music venue produced some fantastic posters during their run.
