SPX REPORT!
They're back, and they've returned as even bigger dorks for comics! For the first time ever, all three intrepid hosts were able to hangout In person. Each had their own comic to share with the world, each had a dream of a great weekend of friendship and comics. Was it a success? Or was Small Press Expo more akin to a backstabbing bitchfest on Big Brother? Check out the show to find out!

Mazes and Monsters
Time for another VOR movie commentary, this time starring Academy award Winner TOM HANKS! 1982's Mazes and Monsters was a fictional tale of kids with frigid parents finding their identities through role playing games.
While it doesn't address the concern that players of RPGs were messing with "the powers of SATAN!" M&M does show audiences that nerds can have friends and lovers by just being themselves, and that the hat does not make the man.
