The central theme of this podcast episode revolves around the creation of a safe haven for Blerds and Nerds amidst a tumultuous political climate. In light of the recent firing of writer Gretchen Felker-Martin due to her remarks on Charlie Kirk, we delve into the implications of such actions within the creative community. Further, we discuss the cinematic merits of "The Conjuring: Last Rites," reflecting on its effectiveness as a horror film. Additionally, we address the significant news regarding Diamond Comic Distributors Inc., which has recently filed for Chapter 11 and is undergoing substantial restructuring, including layoffs and the sale of its comic distribution business. The discussions are enriched by our shared commitment to authenticity and representation in storytelling, as we explore the creative journeys of individuals like Rorie Still, who emphasize character recognition in their work. Through this dialogue, we aim to foster an environment that encourages open expression while navigating the complexities of the current landscape.
