Guest host: Suzanne Snow Severino | Happy Valentines Day! Let's spend it talking about Barks' "slinky sorceress" Magica De Spell in only the second story (and first ten-pager) she is featured in! "Ten-Cent Valentine" is a light story, but a great show case of the sorceress and an amazing time capsule of the early 1960s!

Guest Host: Thad Komorowski | Merry Christmas from Barks Remarks and...Your Firestone Dealers and Stores?? This Christmas themed episode takes a look at the five 8-pagers holiday stories that Barks did that were released as giveaways through Firestone tire stores! These are fun bits of ephemera, including "Best Christmas," "Santa's Stormy Visit," Three Good Little Ducks," "Toyland," and "the New Toys." Then, for our main feature, we discuss the seldom reprinted (and initially scotched by the publisher), "Silent Night," a violent and hilarious Donald vs. Neighbor Jones face off!
Guest: Nils Lid Hjort Welcome to a very special episode! We are discussing one of Barks' Gyro Gearloose stories, one that the Duck Man abandoned in roughly 1958 or 1959, after penciling just 3 pages. The editors later assigned Don Rosa to provide his take on a complete story, published in 1990. Dutch comics legend Daan Jippes would also take on the assignment, published in 2007. So, for this episode, we get to discuss the efforts of three Disney comics legends!

Guest Host: Orion Trunk | Happy Halloween! For our episode this year, we are cover two spooky "mini-adventures." "Hound" is a 7 page take on Scottish heritage and modern art, while "Bongo" focuses on the challenges of running Scrooge's far-flung businesses, with an eerie mystery in Central Africa, involving a tribe with a disconcerting name and mischievous tsetse fly!
Guest Host: Veikko Suvanto | Listeners, we've got a couple of Barks' most educational stories here! First, a story centering Huey, Dewey, & Louie that is basically a textbook "Train A & Train B" math problem turned into an exciting narrative! Then, the story my guest and I are most excited about, Barks' story that is really an excuse to explore the vastness of the cosmos and play with the idea of scale! This is a very unique story that we contend should receive more attention than it does!

And what better than checking out this episode of the Ten-Page Podcast, in which a credulous Donald is hypnotized by a child's toy! Give the episode a listen to hear us talk about whether the hypno-gun is *really* a toy, the great name "Rockjaw Bumrisk," and Barks' phenomenal character art!

Guest Host: Geoff Moses (aka GeoX) Listeners, it's time to earn a new merit badge, and hopefully become promoted to N.E.R.D.B.U.T.T.S*! We've got a great Junior Woodchucks-themed episode, covering Barks' first two Woodchuck ten-pagers. And our first story is arguably the most notable appearance of the Duck family's pet St. Bernard, Bolivar (here called Bornworthy)! There's lots of great discussion about Barks' attitude towards scouting, hierarchy, and much more! (*Noble Enjoyer of Regularly Discussed Barks, Uploaded Thoughtfully Through Spotify)
Guest Host: Morten Guldberg What ho, listeners! Why aren't you searching for the podcast at the end of the rainbow! This week's Ten-Page Podcast covers an all-time great, Barks' "pot of gold at the end of the rainbow" story! This is an unusually sentimental story, with an atypical message about the power of belief! It's also a great showcase for multiple members of the duck family, with Scrooge posing a test for Donald, Gladstone, and Huey-Dewy-and-Louie!

Guest Hosts: Warren Harmon & David Wolpaw Happy April Fool's Day! This episode covers a couple of Barks' "trickiest" stories, in recognition of the mischievous holiday. Both stories are from Barks' prime year of 1951, in fact, they ran in back-to-back issues of Walt Disney's Comics & Stories! The stories feature some great character art (especially "Knightly Rivals," which takes some fun jabs at community theatre) and "April Foolers" has a somewhat shocking throwaway gag!

Guest Host: John Lustig No need to flip a coin to decide whether to listen to this episode! We're covering the story commonly called "Flipism," a fan-favorite ten-pager! We discuss whether Flipism actually works and the many crazy contours of this fan favorite ten-pager!
Guest Hosts: Patrick Block & Warren Harmon Happy New Year! Are you the type to make a resolution? Donald and the nephews certainly are, in these memorable New Year stories, released in back-to-back years. New Year's Revolutions is an entertaining enough story, but Secret Resolutions is the real treat, with its (admittedly low-stakes) mystery structure and decadent drawings of Carl Barks-invented pastries. Why not resolve to enjoy the episode, and to listen to more podcasts!
Guest Hosts: Patrick Block & Warren Harmon Happy Holidays! We're checking in with a short episode this week, exploring one of Barks' funniest Christmas-themed stories, in which Donald unwisely attempts to con a free turkey dinner out of his Uncle Scrooge! My guests and I also talk about some of our favorite other Christmas Barks stories.
Guest Host: David Wolpaw Greetings listeners! This week we are covering two stories that observe that most American of holidays, Thanksgiving! For international readers, Barks' Thanksgiving stories must offer some humorous insight into this turkey-focused holiday. First up, "the Terrible Turkey," one of those stories where Donald is obsessed with getting a turkey the old-fashioned way. Then, "a Charitable Chore," a story about the challenges posed by unwanted holiday guests...in this case, cousin Gladstone! Both stories feature Donald blithely ignoring the opportunity to double-check something that turns out to be important! Whether you are observing this holiday or not, a happy holiday season to you!
Guest Hosts: Thad Komorowski & Debbie Perry Greetings listeners! In celebration of Mickey Mouse's birthday, on November 18th, we bring you this episode devoted to the ONLY Mickey Mouse story the Duck Man wrote and drew! The Riddle of the Red Hat is an unusual ten (actually eleven)-pager, and we take advantage of the opportunity to discuss Floyd Gottfredson, the famed Mickey comics artist and plotter that was one of Barks' principal inspirations. We discuss how the artists got involved with Mickey, how Barks found inspiration from Gottfredson, and the two artists' meetings later in life.

Guest Hosts: Tim Artz & Henrieke Goorhuis Happy Halloween! We've got ghosts (Wispy Willie) and goblins (the invisible kind, at least) by the score on this Halloween episode of the Ten-Page Podcast! Dutch artists Henrieke Goorhuis (returning) and Tim Artz (new to the podcast) join me as we discuss these fun and offbeat spooky stories, which include a reality-bending invention from Gyro Gearloose in his second (non-cameo) appearance and one of Barks' most memorable creatures, Wispy Willie, the Will-o'-the-Wisp/Jack-O'-Lantern!
Guest Host: John Lustig Time to visit, albeit briefly and in disguise, the tiny town of Omelet, site of one of the greatest disasters Donald Duck ever inflicted on a town! Omelet is an utter classic, a very personal story in which Barks drew from his personal experiences raising chickens, and is the ten-pager he often mentioned as being his favorite of his short stories. Check out this special episode as I'm joined by the Disney comics writer John Lustig as we particularly focus on Barks writing and story-telling in this all-time classic.
Guest Host: Patrick Block Playing hooky, listeners? The Truant Officer will deliver you where you're supposed to be: listening to this episode! This themed episode looks at Barks' 3 stories that were all about truancy, where the nephews ditch school! "Truant Officer Donald" is probably the most famous, but don't sleep on the other two! Revisiting these three similarly-themed stories is a great way to explore how Barks was able to develop fresh plotlines over the years. And the subject of Truant Officers seems like such a weird time capsule now (though technically they still exist in the U.S.).
The latest In Touch With iOS with Dave he is joined by guests Michael DJ Eisenberg, Patrice Brend'amour, and Ben Roethig.The Apple Event is less than 1week away what would we like to see?

Guest Host: Sara Santiago Here is the second episode in our Scroogeanomics two-parter. This episode covers Barks' famed supply-side ten-pager, "Spending Money." We also discuss one of Barks' cleverest short stories, the five-pager "Somethin' Fishy Here." Both stories involve an exploration of Barks' attitudes towards money and economics.
Being a good business owner and being a competent law practitioner are two distinctly different things. However, both these traits are essentially required for building a thriving law business. In today's episode of the Tech Savvy Lawyer.Page Podcast, we're getting into a deep conversation with a leader who has built a thriving law firm that operates virtually. Jim Grant, Co-Founding Partner of Georgia Trial Attorneys at Kirchen & Grant, LLC, joins us today to talk about how to utilize technology to develop a small law practice into a growing law business. Jim Grant is a successful Personal Injury Attorney in GA. Jim and his partner Mark Kirchen founded Kirchen & Grant LLC founded in 2015 to fight for the rights of the injured and their families against the greed of multi-million and multi-billion-dollar insurance companies. Jim and his partner share a passion for empowering the injured with the highest levels of professionalism and ethics. Their philosophy is “…to prepare and run every case as if [they] were the client.” Join Jim and me as we discuss how his firm accomplishes this through the use of technology with the following three questions (and more!): - What are three ways your firm uses technology to enhance client communications? - You've talked about “The bait-and-switch of the legal industry: how the lawyer you hire isn't the one you get.” How do you set client expectations when it comes to these types of communications? - What are your three favorite tech shortcuts? In this conversation, we cover: [01:24] The Tech Stack – We start the conversation with a review of both of Jim's computer setups at his office and home and why he had chosen to stick to Windows 10. [07:54] Technology and Communication – How Jim's firm uses technology to improve communication with its clients and how technology helped him open up new opportunities all over the world by offering services virtually. [10:03] Pushback – Jim talks about the challenges that emerged when adopting new technologies, pushback from different stakeholders, and how they overcome these challenges. [11:55] Professional Tools – Jim shares with us how using VoIP as a method of communication saves a lot of time for him, Jim's favorite case management software platform, and his go-to CRM platform. [16:36] iPhone & Windows – Jim is a fan of the iPhone, but he uses Windows for work. We asked why he chose these two rivals for the two specific purposes. [23:08] Tech Shortcuts – Jim's three tools for professionals and business owners to get the most ROI out of their tech setup. [35:06] Maintaining Integrity – Measures Jim and his firm have put in place to maintain data security, ethics, and integrity as a global business. [39:49] Monitoring & Data – The importance of logging and monitoring activities in a law firm and how Jim approaches keeping a healthy balance between maintaining trusting relationships with the staff and tracking the data that's necessary.

Guest Host: Sara Santiago Greetings listeners! This episode is a bit unusual as it is the beginning of a 2-part episode we are dubbing "Scroogeanomics." In the first part, we'll be exploring one of the Duck Man's most famous ten-pagers, "a Financial Fable," and considering what it tells us about Barks' free-market philosophy and opinions about capitalism and economics. The episode will conclude next time by exploring the thematically similar "Spending Money," as well as other economically themed stories.
Guest Hosts: Mikkel Hagen & Ruben Olsrud Listeners, we are back with a second episode devoted to Donald's jobs; in this case the "Brittle Mastery" jobs, unusual jobs that Donald masters only to have things go catastrophically wrong, and usually having to flee the country! Listen to us highlight the excellent "the Master Wrecker" and then debate how well other stories fit the mold.
Guest Hosts: Patrick Block & Warren Harmon Greetings, listeners! Carl Barks extracted a lot of comedic potential out of Donald's many jobs! In this episode, we'll cover 3 of his many, MANY professions: volunteer firefighter, hotel manager, and milkman, as well as delve briefly into his many other jobs. "Fireman Donald" is an all-time classic ten-pager, while "Sagmore Springs Hotel" is an essential Donald-in-charge story. "The Milkman Story" is a special case; an underexposed story that was originally taken off the publication schedule; it is little-read and has a unique tone, so be sure to track it down!
My next guest is Nataliya Blidy. Nataliya is the Business Development Specialist for SmartAdvocate.. Smart Advocate is a cloud-based Award-Winning Legal Case Management Software. We had an interesting conversation about the many things you should consider when you want to transfer your practice to a new CRM. Join Nataliya and me as we talk about the following three questions and more! Q1: What are three differences between Smart Advocate and your competitors? Q2: What are three things that attorneys can do to make sure their data transfer between CRMs is error-free? BQ: How do CRMs like Smart Advocate Help with Onboarding new staff? Q3: What are Natalia's three favorite third-party integrations attorneys can use with Smart Advocate? Special message: Natalia and I have had some very nice conversations talking about her home country, Ukraine. What is happening there is devastating. Our conversations helped to inspire me to donate The Tech-Savvy Lawyer.Page Podcast mug proceeds (about $5/mug) to the World Central Kitchen while this conflict continues. WCK provides meals to those suffering devastation or, as in Ukraine's situation, invasion. Whether it is through a purchase of a mug or a separate donation, I hope you consider donating a few dollars to help the Ukrainian people.

Happy summer! In this episode we tackle three summer themed stories focused on summer break, swimming, and vacations! "Pool Sharks" from 1951 is the standout story: one of Barks' all-time greatest ten-pagers, in which Donald replaces his backyard garden with a swimming pool, before things go horribly awry. Then, in "Swimming Swindlers," an early Barks story from 1946, the nephews attempt to cheat Donald in a swimming contest, where things go horribly awry. Finally, in "Houseboat Holiday," Donald tries to keep the nephews out of trouble during their houseboat vacation, only to have things...well, you probably guessed it!
This episode is all about Barks' famous "statue building contest." This is one of his more outlandish ten-pagers, featuring an absolutely wild competition between Uncle Scrooge (who opens his purse strings for once, in defense of his title of world's richest man) and the Maharajah of Howduystan! The story also features some neat world-building, in the subject of the statues: Cornelius Coot, founder of Duckburg.
Parents- at the end of the day we send them to college to go to class, right? All that other stuff is important too, but at the core, we expect them to learn something. And to do so, they need to understand some of mechanisms in place to help them along their academic journey. They will almost certainly struggle at some point in their studies and when they do, academic and major advisors are the key to them sorting out their problems. What can you do, parent, to encourage your student to take best advantage of this new relationship as their start their lives on campus?

This week's episode is about Barks' famous "think boxes" story. It is famous as the first non-cameo appearance of Barks' original character Gyro Gearloose. In addition, the story is one of Barks' more notably creepy tales, with a voracious wolf hankering for roast duckling! Listen to the episode, which features Joakim Gunnarson, editor at Egmont publishing, who gives great insight and perspective as an editor who has worked to localize and restore Barks stories.
Gladstone Gander, Donald's ultra-lucky cousin, makes for a great foil for Donald. In this episode we'll talk about Gladstone and explore two of the all-time greatest Gladstone stories, one (Gladstone Returns) from before Barks imbued him with his supernatural luck and one (Gladstone's Terrible Secret) from afterwards, and in a rare example of Barks at least obliquely pondering where the Gander's luck comes from! As a bit of a bonus, we'll even get to talk about the initial appearance of another famous secondary character, as the latter story was the first ever appearance of Gyro Gearloose!

It's our big Money Bin episode! We've got a double feature of two of Barks classic stories featuring one of his greatest non-character creations, Scrooge McDuck's Money Bin! "Big Bin" is the showcase this episode, as it really set the template for Scrooge's relationship with the building that secures his money and all its sundry defenses. "Round Money Bin" is a fun story as well, and includes the first allusion to Scrooge's #1 dime. We'll also talk about Salmon P. Chase, the guy whose face graces the $10,000 bill and briefly discuss other great stories featuring the money bin, including by other creators!

Careful about knocking on our door, listeners, you might get a face full of Boer War surplus cannon! "Terror of the Beagle Boys" is one of Barks' most iconic Scrooge-centric ten-pagers, a sort of two-man stage play where the looming threat is almost beside the point. Join us as we talk about that iconic cannon, Barks' ancient messenger boys, and the great character work that went into this "Waiting for Godot"-like story!
This episode is a real treat, as it features this all-time great ten-pager (currently the highest ranked on INDUCKS), and because I am joined by Patrick Block, the great duck artist who got to both meet and collaborate with Carl Barks! We have a great conversation about the Duck Man's best ten-pagers, the absurdity of the rare collectibles industry, and many of Patrick's great remembrances and impressions of Barks.
Nothing can save you from this podcast! It is invincible! It is doom itself! Actually, this episode of the Ten-Page Podcast is all about a carefully curated selection of FIVE of the Duck Man's earliest ten-pagers. We talk about his first ten-pager, "the Victory Garden," a sort of trial-by-assignment that Barks drew but didn't write, followed by his first solo outing, "the Rabbit's Foot." Next we cover the goofy "Salesman Donald," forerunner to so many Donald-gets-a-job stories. After that comes the story that gets the episode's top billing, "the Duck in the Iron Pants," the highlight of his early ten-pagers, and finally, "the Mad Chemist," one of Barks' first out-of-this-world stories. Join us as we talk about Carl Barks' origins and the early evolution of his stories!
This story is arguably the best of Barks' "Brittle Mastery" stories -- those where Donald masters an obscure occupation before things go horribly awry. Listen as my guest and I discuss the story's incredible timing and humor, the science and business of rain-seeding, the metaphorical green monster of jealousy, and what exactly an "Idle Dandy" is, anyway.
