Podcast appearances and mentions of matt fitch

*Theme Music: Chartsmasher – Dial Up* chartsmasher.bandcamp.com/releases specialdudescomix.bigcartel.com/ HO! HO! HO! Get ready because not even distance can stop the TCS crew from having their Christmas party and catch up. We delve into what we have been reading this year and what we would consider out favourites of 2020. There is also a bit of general chatter as always but we mainly stick to the comics this time surprisingly. It’s been a funny old year and we even had a bit of a break near the tail end of it to recharge and bank some more episodes. We have had to adapt to the new way of doing the show but we have plowed on and continued to enjoy talking comics and having you all listen. So thank you. A very Merry Christmas to you all and a Happy New Year. Cheers!

Subscribe so you don’t miss an episode] https://comicartpodcast.wordpress.com/ This time on the podcast we get real. Like, really real. Yes, we are getting down, deep and dark by covering some “Heavy Comics” That doesn’t mean we can’t have a good laugh along the way though. We have a little catch up, Mke has a little technical issue at the start and we gain an echo. Disclaimer! We did actually gain an echo near Nando’s books. There was a slight problem and we couldn’t get rid of it. It’s barely noticeable, but just so you folks know going in. It’s already heavy enough without the sound going that way as well.

AL and Shane are joined by Matt Fitch & Chris Baker, writers of one of the biggest graphic novels of the year, Apollo. A graphic novel that has been discussed by many over the last year, brings to you the real story of the humans that landed on the Moon during the Apollo mission. This book has received so much attention, that its hard not to ask the question. What is it about this book, that has kicked up such a fuss? Well find out on this episode of Comics Salopia Podcast. BTW Matt & Chris are pretty awesome

Apollo and other Space Adventures In a feature length episode looking at depictions of astronauts and close encounters on the comic book page to coincide with the imminent 50th anniversary of the first American Moon Landing, Alex Fitch talks to writers Matt Fitch and Chris Baker about their graphic novel adaptation of Armstrong and Aldrin’s […]

No, that is not a typo, Matt Fitch ran two hundred and seventy kilometers.  Craig sat down with Matt and talked about his prep and execution of the Al Marmoom ultramarathon. A super humble guy, Matt talks us through how he got into running and the story of how he decided to take on the challenge of running 270km across 5 days. A fascinating story and a massively impressive achievement.  Enjoy

  It's one small step for a podcaster. One giant leap for podcast-kind. Okay, so the quote doesn't quite work here, but who cares? This week, Scott's talking with Chris Baker and Matt Fitch, the creators of a brand new graphic novel about three men who went to the moon. As you do. They go over the fantastic artwork by Mike Collins, the research required for telling the story on a technical and personal basis, and what exactly made Richard Nixon so adorably insane. I just want to hug him while he grumbles under his breath! Check out Apollo at SelfMadeHero!

This week we watch 2001, chosen by Matt Fitch, co-author of the fantastic new graphic novel Apollo, in stores now! We break down the film, Alex proposes an extra act break, and then when it comes to the all important ranking the pod erupts in all-out war. Not since Ghost in the Shell has a film proved quite so divisive. Will the gang manage to reach a ranking, or is a certain co-host so angry that this is the end of SFRS as we know it? Tune in for more drama than you can probably find in the film itself! NOTE: Sam's audio is busted at the start but sorts itself out about 18 minutes in, sorry about that! GIVE US 5 STARS ON ITUNES!
