POPULARITY
Our last episode before the holiday festivities begin (and probably 2nd to last episode of the year?) featured an artist that we recently started following after a simple Inktober piece popped up on an Instagram feed. A few months and many more amazing art posts later, we had the privilege of talking with the Kentucky-based artist herself: Tressa Bowling. A lifelong artist and designer, Tressa has had work featured in projects like "Kentucky Kaiju", "Cash & Carrie", and her own webcomic "". She's a veteran of the Kentucky/Ohio comic convention scene and currently spends a ton of time engaging with her fans via her . This week Tressa gave us a rundown of her beginnings in the art world, a crash course in running a Patreon, and a lesson in basic United States geography. Check out some of her social media platforms , and and click the links above for some webcomic and Patreon goodness. Enjoy! -Jr.

On this episode we fake our way through a discussion on fake art, as inspired by the new Tim Burton film BIG EYES, which chronicles the abusive professional and personal relationship between Margaret and Walter Keane. We then move on to a film where Orson Welles hijacked another artist’s work to much greater critical acclaim in what has been called the first film essay in F FOR FAKE. And finally we do our own follow-up to some news organization called 60 MINUTES as we look at the actual documentary MY KID COULD PAINT THAT. To do all this we perhaps need to bring in an actual artist and thankfully Tressa Bowling from Sequential Spirits joins us to give some much needed perspective.
We are the wrong people to talk about perfectionism in artists (assuming you've listened to the prior seventy-one episodes) so we bring in Tressa Bowling and Justin Stewart of the Beaucoup Pop podcast, Sequential Spirits, to debate BLACK SWAN vs. RUBY SPARKS. Before that? It's us giving WHIPLASH the big sloppy kiss it deserves, just as J.K. Simmons taught us.
It's The Big Damn Lizard Apocalypse on this week's episode, as we follow GODZILLA's path of destruction, leaving Jared with a broken heart, and then look at two previous big damn monster movies who do battle over this very podcast in CLOVERFIELD and PACIFIC RIM. Tressa Bowling, artist and designer of our very own podcast logo, joins us to take in the spectacle and tells us of a surprising monster from her own life, the beloved extra-terrestrial, E.T.
Shawn and Donny discuss insanely overpriced convention autographs, their times spent at Baltimore Comic Con and ComiConn, birthday gifts, and a future Salvo in the making. Later in the episode Shawn is joined by artists Tressa Bowling, Justin Stewart, and writer John Ward as they discuss some of their favorite 90's toys. Enjoy.
On this week's show, Shawn finds out what new project Martheus Wade is working on (Turra: Gun Angel - Indie Gogo Project) and discusses his sparring matches with a MMA Superstar, Tressa Bowling's Dracullama comic book debut and her entry into the world of art, and Justin Stewart and his career in being a multipurpose artist, and his knowledge of 90's clothing labels. You can see all of these folks (including me) at Lexington Comic Con on March 16th - 17th! Discover more about Martheus, Tressa and Justin at:loistudios.com
Shawn is joined by Tressa, Kerry and Matt of the Beaucoup Pop podcast as they talk about the types of films they would make if they were producers, the Star Wars Blu-Ray Box Set, Super Pro K.O., Meanwhile, and Tressa and Matt's time spent at DragonCon.
