Tyler Johnson: Okay.

17
00:00:58.990 --> 00:01:00.589
Tad Eggleston: I don't know the difference, but

18
00:01:00.590 --> 00:01:03.489
Tad Eggleston: we might have to watch an episode at some point and figure it out.

19
00:01:03.490 --> 00:01:06.800
Tyler Johnson: Yeah, so I'll do the Miles Morales swip next time.

20
00:01:07.870 --> 00:01:08.889
Tad Eggleston: Cool, cool.

21
00:01:08.890 --> 00:01:11.439
Tyler Johnson: All right. So let's get into some news.

22
00:01:11.993 --> 00:01:16.419
Tad Eggleston: Yeah, Joe K. Sada was at an galem.

23
00:01:16.760 --> 00:01:26.670
Tad Eggleston: And and did some more teasing of his upcoming amazing comics imprint at Mad Cave.

24
00:01:27.210 --> 00:01:31.949
Tad Eggleston: Among the writers we have Derek Kolstadt.

25
00:01:32.390 --> 00:01:38.080
Tad Eggleston: Who who wrote and created John Wick and nobody.

26
00:01:38.470 --> 00:01:44.900
Tad Eggleston: J. Michael Straczynski of Babylon, 5. Fame and all sorts of fantastic comics.

27
00:01:45.600 --> 00:01:57.300
Tad Eggleston: Stephen Paul Judd. Dark winds and echo Christopher Priest, who, we don't need to say anything about Christopher Priest. People watch or listen to us before know how much we adore Christopher Priest.

28
00:01:57.300 --> 00:01:58.530
Tyler Johnson: Yes.

29
00:01:59.016 --> 00:02:06.319
Tad Eggleston: Garth Ennis. Same deal. Ethan Sachs has done a lot of Marvel Star wars stuff.

30
00:02:06.490 --> 00:02:12.610
Tad Eggleston: Yep, and also did haunted Girl at Image, and Charles

31
00:02:13.010 --> 00:02:21.310
Tad Eggleston: Dorfman, who wrote and directed barbarians and was an associate producer of the King's Speech.

32
00:02:21.740 --> 00:02:28.899
Tad Eggleston: The the Academy award winning movie and then artists will include East Side, Ribak.

33
00:02:29.360 --> 00:02:37.769
Tad Eggleston: Ryan, Stegman, Ronan Tulhat, who is known most for his European books, Damon and Doghead

34
00:02:39.590 --> 00:02:41.670
Tad Eggleston: And of course Quesada himself.

35
00:02:42.020 --> 00:02:44.853
Tad Eggleston: So it sounds like it's

36
00:02:45.660 --> 00:02:48.550
Tad Eggleston: I think I saw a quote from somebody.

37
00:02:54.280 --> 00:02:58.560
Tad Eggleston: About it being this, is it?

38
00:02:59.630 --> 00:03:09.319
Tad Eggleston: Yeah. Mad. Cave studio. President Mark Irwin says, Wait, band is Disney meets North American comics meets Joe Quesada.

39
00:03:09.890 --> 00:03:10.270
Tyler Johnson: Can't.

40
00:03:10.270 --> 00:03:18.300
Tad Eggleston: And I bet it's truly amazing. So the 1st book is actually, I don't know if we've got a release yet date yet.

41
00:03:18.700 --> 00:03:23.149
Tad Eggleston: but it'll be coming in sometime this year. It's called the Disciple.

42
00:03:23.370 --> 00:03:24.000
Tyler Johnson: It looks cool.

43
00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:29.229
Tad Eggleston: Well, and it also appears to be a reimagining of Hamlet.

44
00:03:31.820 --> 00:03:37.579
Tad Eggleston: Dorfman, and Quesada are sharing writer duties with Quesada drawing

45
00:03:37.800 --> 00:03:49.739
Tad Eggleston: Wade von Graebager doing the inks, Richard Eisenhove on colors and Jew Kara mania on letters. Yeah, it looks

46
00:03:50.600 --> 00:04:05.689
Tad Eggleston: really really cool. Actually, Quesada says it's inspired by Shakespeare's Hamlet. It's not just a retelling. It's a full on expansion building a world around the original story that's packed with history, intrigue, and all the drama you'd expect.

47
00:04:06.630 --> 00:04:07.180
Tyler Johnson: That's awesome.

48
00:04:07.180 --> 00:04:14.629
Tad Eggleston: So we have long been a fan of Shakespeare and comics, and for sure, getting some more so.

49
00:04:14.630 --> 00:04:17.970
Tyler Johnson: Don't mind me, Ted. I have just got a headache right here, and so.

50
00:04:17.970 --> 00:04:21.420
Tad Eggleston: Oh, I get that! I've I've there's a cold.

51
00:04:21.779 --> 00:04:26.289
Tad Eggleston: I now have a headache log. You do. I do.

52
00:04:26.290 --> 00:04:31.020
Tyler Johnson: Tell me off air about it, because I am curious about ailed you this week.

53
00:04:31.020 --> 00:04:31.480
Tad Eggleston: Yeah.

54
00:04:32.470 --> 00:04:33.000
Tyler Johnson: But.

55
00:04:35.849 --> 00:04:37.169
Tad Eggleston: Thankfully.

56
00:04:39.030 --> 00:04:47.509
Tad Eggleston: My! My scare on Tuesday was only a scare. They've ruled out all the major stuff, or at least seemingly ruled out all the major stuff.

57
00:04:47.510 --> 00:04:50.359
Tyler Johnson: And so it was. It was just a migraine of sorts.

58
00:04:50.490 --> 00:04:54.240
Tad Eggleston: They're thinking it was like

59
00:04:55.520 --> 00:05:03.330
Tad Eggleston: abnormal presentation of a migraine. Yeah, okay, I didn't feel the pain, but I had a lot of the other effects.

60
00:05:03.790 --> 00:05:04.230
Tyler Johnson: Interesting.

61
00:05:05.703 --> 00:05:06.440
Tad Eggleston: Yeah.

62
00:05:06.580 --> 00:05:07.315
Tyler Johnson: Okay.

63
00:05:08.050 --> 00:05:08.670
Tad Eggleston: All right.

64
00:05:08.740 --> 00:05:14.549
Tad Eggleston: but but everybody else thought I was having a stroke until they they. I never thought I was having a stroke, because I.

65
00:05:14.550 --> 00:05:16.050
Tyler Johnson: My brain was spunky.

66
00:05:16.050 --> 00:05:16.660
Tad Eggleston: Shit ink.

67
00:05:16.660 --> 00:05:22.100
Tyler Johnson: Were they stroke symptoms, you know, because I'm I'm very cautious of that for myself. My brother just had a stroke.

68
00:05:22.100 --> 00:05:29.260
Tad Eggleston: I mean, apparently I I mean to me it was I was having to sound out words.

69
00:05:30.520 --> 00:05:31.089
Tyler Johnson: Oh, boy!

70
00:05:31.090 --> 00:05:33.250
Tad Eggleston: But particularly the 1st time that

71
00:05:34.100 --> 00:05:38.560
Tad Eggleston: that I was doing it, because I didn't realize that I was going to have to do it.

72
00:05:39.920 --> 00:05:50.010
Tad Eggleston: There was a bit of a stutter to it, too, because it's like I just start the word over again, because it's like, why didn't the whole word come out. And it's like, Okay, let's do. Individual word sounds.

73
00:05:50.310 --> 00:05:53.950
Tad Eggleston: But my head's running on overdrive thinking of all these things. So.

74
00:05:53.950 --> 00:05:54.790
Tyler Johnson: Yeah, but I can't be.

75
00:05:54.790 --> 00:05:59.409
Tad Eggleston: Occurred to me because the brain is working. The messages just weren't going out.

76
00:05:59.740 --> 00:06:03.400
Tyler Johnson: I can imagine people's reaction, because.

77
00:06:03.400 --> 00:06:07.955
Tad Eggleston: Yeah, yeah, no. I started, I started to realize that that

78
00:06:08.680 --> 00:06:15.300
Tad Eggleston: that that people thought it might be serious when I didn't have to wait at the emergency room.

79
00:06:16.630 --> 00:06:20.030
Tyler Johnson: So so were you at school, or what what happened?

80
00:06:20.110 --> 00:06:22.078
Tad Eggleston: I was. I was at home. I

81
00:06:22.360 --> 00:06:23.090
Tyler Johnson: Okay.

82
00:06:23.090 --> 00:06:28.600
Tad Eggleston: I'd stayed home for the day because I wasn't feeling well and like if

83
00:06:28.980 --> 00:06:33.189
Tad Eggleston: if I hadn't had just this crazy thing where

84
00:06:34.200 --> 00:06:38.885
Tad Eggleston: I don't know exactly what happened, because I was asleep, but

85
00:06:40.740 --> 00:06:48.860
Tad Eggleston: I suddenly felt like I was drowning, and really it was like the oxygen from my cpap went down wrong, or whatever

86
00:06:49.394 --> 00:07:05.569
Tad Eggleston: so I like spasmed, and was like trying to get my head above water until, like my body figured out, I wasn't above water, and I ripped off the mask, and then, you know, kind of gas breath. But in all of that I'd wound up sitting up and putting one foot on the floor.

87
00:07:09.370 --> 00:07:16.180
Tad Eggleston: And as I started to go, okay, I'm going to go back to sleep now. I went. Oh, I need to go to the bathroom, so

88
00:07:17.200 --> 00:07:35.260
Tad Eggleston: I pushed myself up on the foot, and it's not too uncommon for me for that like 1st time getting out of bed like I have to motivate myself through it. Okay, plant the foot, push right where I have to like, break it down. But then, when I started to walk.

89
00:07:36.050 --> 00:07:43.740
Tad Eggleston: I mean a and this part again not too uncommon for me. Early in the morning, where I'm like, okay, move the left foot.

90
00:07:43.940 --> 00:07:50.499
Tad Eggleston: When I was moving the left foot I was no longer holding in my brain. Right leg must hold weight.

91
00:07:52.350 --> 00:07:52.740
Tyler Johnson: Yeah.

92
00:07:52.740 --> 00:07:53.729
Tad Eggleston: So it stopped.

93
00:07:54.340 --> 00:07:54.960
Tyler Johnson: Oh!

94
00:07:55.690 --> 00:07:57.239
Tad Eggleston: And I fell against the wall.

95
00:07:57.370 --> 00:08:08.749
Tad Eggleston: Yeah, so so over like 5 min to get to the bathroom, I figured out. Oh, I have to think about things, anything I'm not thinking about. My body's not doing right.

96
00:08:09.430 --> 00:08:13.570
Tyler Johnson: Right. You have to make a very conscious effort to do that.

97
00:08:14.190 --> 00:08:14.530
Tad Eggleston: Which is

98
00:08:14.530 --> 00:08:33.309
Tad Eggleston: why one of the hard questions throughout the day was, Well, did you have a headache at this point? And I kept saying, I don't think so, and Kelly was like you told me you had a headache, and it wasn't until we were leaving and part of the headache came back. I'm like, I know what happened was holding so many thoughts in my head that the pain from my headache there wasn't room for it anymore.

99
00:08:33.470 --> 00:08:41.640
Tad Eggleston: I couldn't think of my head hurts. I was too busy thinking of. Hold right leg firm, plant, left foot.

100
00:08:41.919 --> 00:08:43.949
Tyler Johnson: Yeah, wow.

101
00:08:44.229 --> 00:08:45.669
Tyler Johnson: Well, I'm glad you're okay.

102
00:08:45.670 --> 00:08:52.309
Tad Eggleston: Because I never actually did figure out what the commands were for like balance. So it was also having to like hold a wall.

103
00:08:55.060 --> 00:08:55.400
Tyler Johnson: Oh!

104
00:08:55.400 --> 00:09:00.629
Tad Eggleston: And then it turned out I had to speak through syllables, but also like.

105
00:09:01.710 --> 00:09:05.549
Tad Eggleston: so I'm having the. I'm like holding a sentence in my head.

106
00:09:06.390 --> 00:09:10.550
Tad Eggleston: While trying to figure out the word sounds

107
00:09:12.190 --> 00:09:16.160
Tad Eggleston: to bring out one at a time to convey that sentence.

108
00:09:16.450 --> 00:09:24.299
Tad Eggleston: and again for me my brain was working. It was. It was the like brain to the rest of my body that didn't work, which is the opposite of what would happen if you had a stroke.

109
00:09:24.300 --> 00:09:24.630
Tyler Johnson: Right.

110
00:09:24.630 --> 00:09:29.690
Tad Eggleston: You have a stroke that means oxygen. Didn't get your brain for some period of time. Yeah, right?

111
00:09:30.540 --> 00:09:51.529
Tad Eggleston: My brain was in overdrive, so that didn't even occur to me until much later. I actually started worrying about Als. Sooner than that, I'm like, am I gonna have to like, learn to use one of those optical devices like Stephen Hawking, where I move my eyes to pick the words out because I will. But like, how long does that take.

112
00:09:52.800 --> 00:09:54.273
Tyler Johnson: Hmm, weird.

113
00:09:55.333 --> 00:10:02.770
Tad Eggleston: And then they took me for the chest. X-ray, and I'm like chest X-ray. Why are they doing a chest? I'm like, oh.

114
00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:07.730
Tad Eggleston: they think I'm having a stroke. This was after my Ct. Scan.

115
00:10:08.200 --> 00:10:08.940
Tyler Johnson: Yeah.

116
00:10:09.080 --> 00:10:09.920
Tyler Johnson: Yep.

117
00:10:09.920 --> 00:10:13.099
Tad Eggleston: All of which is in like the 1st 40 min that I'm at the hospital.

118
00:10:13.520 --> 00:10:14.220
Tyler Johnson: Yes.

119
00:10:19.950 --> 00:10:24.940
Tad Eggleston: I have some thoughts on corporate medicine, though I was at a very rich hospital.

120
00:10:25.610 --> 00:10:39.789
Tad Eggleston: Or let me rephrase it should be well, I mean frankly, all hospitals, particularly all hospitals that are parts of hospital systems, are rich hospitals. Lots of hospitals have, like billions of dollars in cash on hand.

121
00:10:43.590 --> 00:10:44.300
Tad Eggleston: Oom!

122
00:10:45.010 --> 00:10:54.890
Tad Eggleston: But it was a hospital in one of the richest suburbs in Chicagoland, and also close enough to the city, and with densely enough populated suburbs around it, that, like

123
00:10:55.550 --> 00:10:58.190
Tad Eggleston: it, should never expect to have

124
00:10:59.960 --> 00:11:03.869
Tad Eggleston: not have, you know, a decent number of.

125
00:11:04.395 --> 00:11:04.920
Tyler Johnson: Yeah.

126
00:11:04.920 --> 00:11:05.596
Tad Eggleston: Right.

127
00:11:08.000 --> 00:11:09.599
Tad Eggleston: I had 2 beds.

128
00:11:09.790 --> 00:11:12.119
Tad Eggleston: Both of them were in hallways.

129
00:11:13.150 --> 00:11:17.140
Tyler Johnson: Hmm, okay.

130
00:11:17.140 --> 00:11:22.999
Tad Eggleston: The nurses, doctors, and techs were amazing, but they were also ridiculously overworked.

131
00:11:23.240 --> 00:11:24.069
Tyler Johnson: I bet.

132
00:11:25.320 --> 00:11:27.390
Tad Eggleston: But I saw a lot of suits running around.

133
00:11:28.590 --> 00:11:34.679
Tad Eggleston: sometimes trying to tell the people who actually knew what they were doing, what to do to make their lives easier. And they're sitting there going.

134
00:11:34.900 --> 00:11:35.280
Tyler Johnson: No.

135
00:11:35.280 --> 00:11:39.839
Tad Eggleston: Don't get it. Do you get the fuck out of my way? I got somebody that needs

136
00:11:40.090 --> 00:11:45.580
Tad Eggleston: needs something right now, so like

137
00:11:46.480 --> 00:11:50.749
Tad Eggleston: I don't know why this is so hard for America to understand.

138
00:11:51.800 --> 00:11:58.690
Tad Eggleston: but the best outcomes in medicine don't align with profits.

139
00:12:01.110 --> 00:12:01.700
Tyler Johnson: That's true.

140
00:12:01.700 --> 00:12:04.910
Tad Eggleston: Profit shouldn't be part of the equation.

141
00:12:08.030 --> 00:12:09.239
Tyler Johnson: Yeah, I agree.

142
00:12:09.780 --> 00:12:14.929
Tad Eggleston: If you want the best medical outcomes, profit shouldn't be part of the equation.

143
00:12:15.780 --> 00:12:16.440
Tyler Johnson: Yep.

144
00:12:17.140 --> 00:12:20.659
Tad Eggleston: And if you want, if you want to know anything about how

145
00:12:20.770 --> 00:12:36.729
Tad Eggleston: dumb the people who are supposedly looking for profits are, I guarantee you that among the things that they want to do, just because there's data on more and more tests being ordered is to have the expensive equipment in use as often as possible, because they

146
00:12:37.220 --> 00:12:39.090
Tad Eggleston: can charge a lot for it.

147
00:12:40.410 --> 00:12:44.210
Tad Eggleston: I, my MRI, took 25 min.

148
00:12:44.880 --> 00:12:49.799
Tad Eggleston: and then I waited there for 45 min until the transportation person could come. Pick me up.

149
00:12:50.240 --> 00:12:52.840
Tyler Johnson: Oh, wow!

150
00:12:52.840 --> 00:12:55.710
Tad Eggleston: So, instead of running 3 Mris.

151
00:12:55.710 --> 00:12:56.210
Tyler Johnson: Yeah.

152
00:12:56.210 --> 00:12:57.790
Tad Eggleston: It only ran one.

153
00:12:58.000 --> 00:12:58.320
Tyler Johnson: Yep.

154
00:12:58.320 --> 00:13:00.170
Tad Eggleston: Because, rather than having

155
00:13:00.470 --> 00:13:08.490
Tad Eggleston: somebody getting paid, probably 15 to $20 an hour, just hang out for 25 min and then take me back.

156
00:13:09.320 --> 00:13:09.930
Tyler Johnson: Yeah.

157
00:13:09.930 --> 00:13:16.770
Tad Eggleston: He got sent off somewhere else, and then wasn't able to come back, which also meant that nobody else was able to get an MRI. So

158
00:13:17.050 --> 00:13:17.980
Tad Eggleston: 4.

159
00:13:19.340 --> 00:13:24.390
Tad Eggleston: Why, lot of weight pat. For in order to

160
00:13:25.000 --> 00:13:29.139
Tad Eggleston: save what $7 worth of labor.

161
00:13:29.490 --> 00:13:30.270
Tyler Johnson: Yeah.

162
00:13:30.270 --> 00:13:33.940
Tad Eggleston: And not allow a hardworking person to just

163
00:13:34.220 --> 00:13:36.079
Tad Eggleston: cool his heels for a minute.

164
00:13:36.580 --> 00:13:37.240
Tyler Johnson: Yep.

165
00:13:39.070 --> 00:13:44.889
Tad Eggleston: They probably gave up $30,000 worth of revenue.

166
00:13:45.300 --> 00:13:46.230
Tyler Johnson: Probably.

167
00:13:48.620 --> 00:13:50.449
Tad Eggleston: At least 5,000,

168
00:13:51.160 --> 00:14:06.989
Tad Eggleston: I mean, depending on what they charge, depending on what their deals with. You know, Mris, I mean when you I mean, I don't. I mean again, medical billing is kind of opaque, because, like, if you're insured, you get to see what the official price is. But your insurance company didn't pay that.

169
00:14:07.190 --> 00:14:07.770
Tyler Johnson: Yeah.

170
00:14:10.420 --> 00:14:13.559
Tad Eggleston: But I guarantee that it was more than $7.

171
00:14:14.800 --> 00:14:15.470
Tyler Johnson: Yeah.

172
00:14:15.810 --> 00:14:20.030
Tad Eggleston: I guarantee it was a hundred times more than $7.

173
00:14:20.030 --> 00:14:20.670
Tyler Johnson: Yep.

174
00:14:21.070 --> 00:14:25.969
Tad Eggleston: You know what I mean? Yeah. So they're not even doing the profit part very well.

175
00:14:25.970 --> 00:14:26.710
Tyler Johnson: Right?

176
00:14:28.640 --> 00:14:30.340
Tyler Johnson: Yeah, it's crazy.

177
00:14:31.257 --> 00:14:34.010
Tad Eggleston: They're doing the shareholder part well.

178
00:14:36.150 --> 00:14:44.220
Tad Eggleston: Because shareholders are often idiots, too, but that's a whole different thing. We'll find an excuse to have that conversation someday.

179
00:14:44.220 --> 00:14:45.069
Tyler Johnson: We will.

180
00:14:45.580 --> 00:14:51.609
Tad Eggleston: I'm certain I'll find the right comic to put it around, but not today.

181
00:14:51.610 --> 00:14:52.140
Tad Eggleston: Thank you.

182
00:14:52.140 --> 00:14:52.620
Tyler Johnson: So.

183
00:14:52.620 --> 00:14:56.469
Tad Eggleston: Today we're going to. We're going to say that thankfully.

184
00:14:56.660 --> 00:15:03.889
Tad Eggleston: as of this morning, all fires in La were under control. Yeah, hopefully, that remains the case.

185
00:15:04.814 --> 00:15:13.450
Tad Eggleston: Earlier this week there was a benefit concert held, split between the intuit dome and the Kia Forum to

186
00:15:13.700 --> 00:15:23.800
Tad Eggleston: raise money to rebuild Billy crystal hosted. It was put on by the Azoff family, a really rich

187
00:15:26.190 --> 00:15:30.379
Tad Eggleston: family involved in the music business. It included

188
00:15:30.950 --> 00:15:35.660
Tad Eggleston: Billie Eilish, Earth wind and fire. Gracie, Abrams, Jelly Roll.

189
00:15:35.670 --> 00:16:03.880
Tad Eggleston: Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, little baby, Olivia Rodrigo, Pesa, Pluma, Rod Stewart, Stevie, Wonder Sting Tate Mccray, Alanis Morissette Anderson, Pac Dave Matthews, and John Mayer, Dawes, Graham, Nash Green Day, John Fogerty, Joni Mitchell, no doubt Pink, red, Hot, Chili Peppers, Steven Stills, Stevie Nicks the Black Crows and in a unannounced

190
00:16:04.310 --> 00:16:05.510
Tad Eggleston: appearance.

191
00:16:05.770 --> 00:16:06.240
Tyler Johnson: Yes.

192
00:16:06.240 --> 00:16:12.880
Tad Eggleston: Smear, Dave Grohl, Krishna, Vaselik, from Nirvana.

193
00:16:13.180 --> 00:16:13.744
Tyler Johnson: Yes.

194
00:16:14.980 --> 00:16:22.577
Tad Eggleston: Reunited to do 4 Nirvana songs with Joan Jett.

195
00:16:26.680 --> 00:16:27.210
Tyler Johnson: Kim Gordon.

196
00:16:27.210 --> 00:16:33.110
Tad Eggleston: Violet. Yeah, Kim Joan Jet, Kim Gordon, Saint Vincent and

197
00:16:34.210 --> 00:16:38.650
Tad Eggleston: Violet Kroll taking the vocal duties.

198
00:16:38.990 --> 00:16:40.270
Tad Eggleston: Yeah, that was that was spam

199
00:16:40.270 --> 00:16:43.259
Tad Eggleston: fantastic. I know it's still streaming on, on.

200
00:16:43.820 --> 00:16:54.640
Tad Eggleston: on Disney, plus you can donate money to the cause@fireaidla.org

201
00:16:55.010 --> 00:17:14.779
Tad Eggleston: more comic centrics. But along the same lines, aws a studios, has launched artists for La, which is a month-long charity campaign on Zoop, auctioning off original arts, prints, signed comics, and more from people like Bill Sinkiewicz, Dennis Cowan, Alison, Sampson, Mike Diodato.

202
00:17:17.720 --> 00:17:22.369
Tad Eggleston: Yeah. So, so definitely, take a look

203
00:17:23.050 --> 00:17:31.930
Tad Eggleston: at those. And then cause we're in a weird world just in time for the start of of

204
00:17:32.420 --> 00:17:43.209
Tad Eggleston: Black History month, the Department of Defense sent out a memo that said Identity months dead at Dod.

205
00:17:43.210 --> 00:17:45.790
Tyler Johnson: It's that's quite the headline.

206
00:17:49.080 --> 00:17:55.110
Tad Eggleston: Our unity and purpose are instrumental to meeting the Department's warfighting mission.

207
00:17:57.650 --> 00:18:01.890
Tad Eggleston: It's not the Department of War anymore. It's the Department of Defense, but that's.

208
00:18:01.890 --> 00:18:03.260
Tyler Johnson: Whatever. Yeah.

209
00:18:04.010 --> 00:18:12.060
Tad Eggleston: Efforts to divide the force, to put one group ahead of another erode camaraderie and threaten mission execution.

210
00:18:12.510 --> 00:18:13.110
Tad Eggleston: Just.

211
00:18:13.110 --> 00:18:13.570
Tyler Johnson: How.

212
00:18:13.570 --> 00:18:17.380
Tad Eggleston: Heritage really put one

213
00:18:19.420 --> 00:18:28.319
Tad Eggleston: group ahead of another, and if we rename any bases for Confederate generals, I want them to also think of that

214
00:18:28.780 --> 00:18:45.090
Tad Eggleston: going forward, dod components and military departments will not use official resources to include man hours to host celebrations or events related to cultural awareness. Months, including National African, American Black History Month.

215
00:18:45.210 --> 00:18:55.160
Tad Eggleston: Women's History Month, Asian, American and Pacific Islander. Heritage Month National Hispanic Heritage Month National Disability, Employment, Awareness, Month

216
00:18:55.490 --> 00:19:15.919
Tad Eggleston: and National American Indian Heritage Month Service members and civilians remain permitted to attend these events in an unofficial capacity outside of duty. Hours left out of the memo, but in the revised

217
00:19:16.380 --> 00:19:31.710
Tad Eggleston: guidelines from Fort Meade. Yeah, also. Martin Luther King's Birthday, Holocaust remembrance, day, army, Heritage month, and Juneteenth.

218
00:19:31.870 --> 00:19:32.990
Tyler Johnson: Yeah.

219
00:19:32.990 --> 00:19:43.990
Tad Eggleston: And Women's Equality Day have also been listed as things that the Department of Defense will not celebrate because it will.

220
00:19:45.277 --> 00:19:47.940
Tad Eggleston: Threats in unity.

221
00:19:47.940 --> 00:19:49.340
Tyler Johnson: I guess I mean I.

222
00:19:49.340 --> 00:19:55.293
Tad Eggleston: Yeah, yeah, ken ken Clippenstein Stein, with the reporting on this

223
00:19:57.110 --> 00:20:02.189
Tad Eggleston: which you saw that. And you're like, but I saw this this morning, and and we do.

224
00:20:03.580 --> 00:20:09.080
Tad Eggleston: The Donald was kind enough to give us a proclamation of the National Black History month.

225
00:20:09.380 --> 00:20:15.370
Tad Eggleston: Apparently in his eyes the 4 most important American black heroes

226
00:20:15.580 --> 00:20:19.929
Tad Eggleston: are Frederick Douglass and Harriet Tubman, so we'll give them. We'll give them some credit there.

227
00:20:20.700 --> 00:20:26.479
Tad Eggleston: But then Thomas Fowell and Justice Clarence Thomas.

228
00:20:27.115 --> 00:20:27.470
Tyler Johnson: Cool.

229
00:20:27.470 --> 00:20:32.810
Tad Eggleston: Are the 2 most vocal black people against affirmative action.

230
00:20:33.550 --> 00:20:35.769
Tad Eggleston: Don't know enough of of souls

231
00:20:35.900 --> 00:20:42.170
Tad Eggleston: history to guarantee that he benefited from affirmative action. But Clarence Thomas certainly did.

232
00:20:46.760 --> 00:20:51.949
Tad Eggleston: I mean to not even have Thurgood Marshall, who, you know. Thomas replaced on the Supreme Court.

233
00:20:54.560 --> 00:20:56.650
Tyler Johnson: It's it's bizarre. I.

234
00:20:56.650 --> 00:21:03.400
Tad Eggleston: But also we should not forget the achievements of American greats, like Tiger Woods.

235
00:21:04.690 --> 00:21:12.849
Tad Eggleston: who have pushed the boundaries of excellence in their respective fields, paving the ways, way for others to follow.

236
00:21:13.200 --> 00:21:14.010
Tyler Johnson: Well.

237
00:21:14.010 --> 00:21:18.959
Tad Eggleston: First.st I don't think Tiger was the 1st black golfer.

238
00:21:19.600 --> 00:21:29.940
Tad Eggleston: There haven't been a lot of black golfers. I will give you that. I don't think there have been significantly more because of Tiger, either.

239
00:21:30.470 --> 00:21:31.230
Tyler Johnson: Nope.

240
00:21:31.630 --> 00:21:32.580
Tyler Johnson: No, no, it's.

241
00:21:32.580 --> 00:21:36.439
Tad Eggleston: I mean. I guess his son is is now golfing.

242
00:21:36.440 --> 00:21:37.850
Tyler Johnson: Yeah, yeah.

243
00:21:38.946 --> 00:22:07.719
Tad Eggleston: And and because, you know, it needs to be about him, this National Black History month, as America prepares to enter a historic Golden Age. I want to extend my tremendous gratitude to black Americans for all they have done to bring us to this moment, and for my future contributions they will make, as we advance into a future of limitless possibility

244
00:22:07.990 --> 00:22:10.030
Tad Eggleston: under my administration.

245
00:22:11.680 --> 00:22:14.890
Tyler Johnson: Yeah, why is administration capitalized?

246
00:22:15.660 --> 00:22:16.340
Tyler Johnson: That's weird.

247
00:22:16.340 --> 00:22:17.829
Tad Eggleston: Well, because it's special.

248
00:22:18.110 --> 00:22:19.910
Tyler Johnson: It's special. Okay.

249
00:22:19.910 --> 00:22:20.590
Tad Eggleston: Wow!

250
00:22:28.690 --> 00:22:29.929
Tad Eggleston: Oh, wow!

251
00:22:30.140 --> 00:22:32.600
Tad Eggleston: I know this is what I was telling you. This is.

252
00:22:32.600 --> 00:22:51.259
Tad Eggleston: I just read the last paragraph in witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand this 31st day of January, in the year of our Lord 2025, and the independence of the United States of America, the 249.th

253
00:22:52.150 --> 00:22:59.610
Tyler Johnson: Weird. It's just bizarre. The whole thing like this is so out of character for him, like what's he know.

254
00:22:59.610 --> 00:23:02.200
Tad Eggleston: This is completely in character for him, I mean.

255
00:23:02.200 --> 00:23:02.740
Tyler Johnson: Okay.

256
00:23:02.740 --> 00:23:05.139
Tad Eggleston: It wasn't written by him, but it's also.

257
00:23:05.140 --> 00:23:05.609
Tyler Johnson: From the link.

258
00:23:05.610 --> 00:23:06.170
Tad Eggleston: Sleep

259
00:23:06.370 --> 00:23:11.760
Tad Eggleston: in character for the people who write for him. This is the type of shit he comes up with

260
00:23:11.940 --> 00:23:13.730
Tad Eggleston: all the fucking time.

261
00:23:14.110 --> 00:23:19.839
Tyler Johnson: I guess I meant like. Why is he even speaking about Black History month at all? I mean, he has not made well, because.

262
00:23:19.840 --> 00:23:38.129
Tad Eggleston: Because it's not officially Black History month without a proclamation from the White House, and it would be a really big deal if the proclamation didn't come out, whereas if the proclamation comes out, almost nobody's going to actually read it. I wouldn't be surprised if we're one of few media outlets us little us

263
00:23:39.200 --> 00:23:43.429
Tad Eggleston: few media outlets that actually go really between

264
00:23:44.030 --> 00:23:50.780
Tad Eggleston: Frederick Douglass and Harriet Tubman. The next cool black people you can come up with are.

265
00:23:52.100 --> 00:23:52.820
Tyler Johnson: Yep.

266
00:23:53.460 --> 00:23:56.609
Tad Eggleston: Thomas Sowell and Clarence Thomas.

267
00:23:57.320 --> 00:24:02.670
Tad Eggleston: Even among black athletes, tiger woods. You've never heard of

268
00:24:02.950 --> 00:24:08.700
Tad Eggleston: Jackie Robinson or Willie Mays, or Hank Aaron.

269
00:24:08.830 --> 00:24:18.010
Tad Eggleston: or Jim Brown, or Walter Payton, or Michael Jordan, or Kareem Abdul-jabbar.

270
00:24:18.010 --> 00:24:19.116
Tyler Johnson: Magic, Johnson.

271
00:24:19.670 --> 00:24:26.280
Tad Eggleston: Magic, Johnson, Muhammad Ali, George Foreman.

272
00:24:27.020 --> 00:24:28.920
Tyler Johnson: We can just keep going.

273
00:24:29.500 --> 00:24:37.720
Tad Eggleston: I mean the the Williams sisters, Arthur Ash.

274
00:24:38.410 --> 00:24:39.250
Tyler Johnson: Oh! Oh!

275
00:24:43.380 --> 00:24:50.229
Tad Eggleston: You know, I mean, I think the only thing weirder, if is, if you who's the

276
00:24:51.090 --> 00:24:53.810
Tad Eggleston: there's like one black Nascar driver.

277
00:24:54.530 --> 00:24:55.540
Tyler Johnson: No, I wouldn't know.

278
00:24:55.540 --> 00:24:58.739
Tad Eggleston: But if that, if that was the one that he'd chosen.

279
00:25:00.220 --> 00:25:01.520
Tyler Johnson: Funny.

280
00:25:01.680 --> 00:25:03.340
Tyler Johnson: Well, so there's that.

281
00:25:03.700 --> 00:25:04.380
Tad Eggleston: Yeah.

282
00:25:05.230 --> 00:25:13.290
Tad Eggleston: Can you believe that he's only been in office for 2, not even 2, not even 2 fucking weeks?

283
00:25:13.290 --> 00:25:20.554
Tyler Johnson: Nope, Nope, Nope, Nope, Nope, it's it's been some like 12 days right? And the amount

284
00:25:22.160 --> 00:25:30.529
Tyler Johnson: the amount of chaos tab between the last time you and I spoke last Saturday to today is off the charts, not to mention the helicopter.

285
00:25:30.530 --> 00:25:33.550
Tad Eggleston: 206 more weeks of this.

286
00:25:33.550 --> 00:25:41.550
Tyler Johnson: I know I mean the least of which is this helicopter crash that he's blaming on Dei policies, you know.

287
00:25:42.980 --> 00:26:02.109
Tad Eggleston: And don't, please don't let anybody notice that I froze hiring, even though it was pointed out to me almost immediately that one of the places that we really need to hire is aircraft control. And you know they're among the places that we should be exempting from any hiring freeze because

288
00:26:03.400 --> 00:26:12.080
Tad Eggleston: it's important. And please, please don't do any history lessons to discover that the biggest reason that we have

289
00:26:13.810 --> 00:26:17.089
Tad Eggleston: labor issues at air traffic control.

290
00:26:17.250 --> 00:26:23.670
Tad Eggleston: It's because some Guy, named Reagan decide might have heard of him

Tyler Johnson: seance sessions become a cutting edge form of spectral therapy, where patients are permitted to converse with, perhaps expunge their own maladies by reaching out beyond the veil of our own world.

Tad Eggleston: The bridges or bridges for superpowered teen girls risk it all to save their beloved city of Oakland, California. Go check out my talk with Greg

552
00:57:24.300 --> 00:57:30.150
Tad Eggleston: Burnham right now. He did this with Jamie Rochelle and Leo Stevens.

553
00:57:31.230 --> 00:57:33.759
Tad Eggleston: Always punch Nazis

554
00:57:35.400 --> 00:57:46.910
Tad Eggleston: Project collects the 3 anti-nazi anthologies that changed the face of the industry. I don't know if they changed the face of an industry or not, but it looks pretty cool. I haven't backed it yet, but I feel like I will. Oh.

555
00:57:47.610 --> 00:57:50.369
Tad Eggleston: have. They reached the $7,000.

556
00:57:51.808 --> 00:57:58.540
Tad Eggleston: Okay, almost currently, at 6,338, at the 7,000

557
00:57:58.930 --> 00:58:05.349
Tad Eggleston: dollar stretch goal. They will. They will create a sticker that says, fuck off red hats.

558
00:58:06.939 --> 00:58:09.039
Tyler Johnson: I want that.

559
00:58:09.430 --> 00:58:16.440
Tad Eggleston: Oh, I like the 7,500 special always punch Nazis postcard to be mailed to the White House, or whoever.

560
00:58:17.620 --> 00:58:18.620
Tyler Johnson: That's fun!

561
00:58:19.430 --> 00:58:24.039
Tad Eggleston: So yeah. So some always, always punch. Nazis looks fun.

562
00:58:24.350 --> 00:58:28.296
Tad Eggleston: The shift from split vision press

563
00:58:29.190 --> 00:58:36.149
Tad Eggleston: story, and worlds are formed from 4 artists taking one writer's script and each building their own vision from it.

564
00:58:37.150 --> 00:58:40.919
Tad Eggleston: and then dark pink comics. The world's freshest new comic book adventure.

565
00:58:42.970 --> 00:58:50.460
Tad Eggleston: radical comic book set in eighties, new Orleans, combining a Noir detective story with supernatural elements and unique music

566
00:58:50.690 --> 00:59:00.859
Tad Eggleston: integration never seen in a comic before. So those are our round of crowdfunding.

567
00:59:01.000 --> 00:59:01.490
Tyler Johnson: Yeah.

568
00:59:01.860 --> 00:59:03.760
Tyler Johnson: So I gotta go on. Hold on.

569
00:59:03.760 --> 00:59:04.120
Tad Eggleston: Yeah.

570
00:59:04.120 --> 00:59:05.060
Tyler Johnson: Yeah, okay.

571
00:59:05.060 --> 00:59:12.420
Tad Eggleston: You're going on the long side. I'm babbling here, but we're babbling today. We're babbling today. We're just getting to amazing books. What'd you love this week? Tyler?

572
00:59:12.680 --> 00:59:25.399
Tyler Johnson: Oh, black Hammer, spiral city! My favorite inspector Insector gets his ass kicked this is from Jeff Lemire and Teddy Christensen. Man. This. This story is just getting

573
00:59:26.706 --> 00:59:33.909
Tyler Johnson: it's cool. It's I love it that it's not focusing on the characters that we we've already gone through so many times. You know what I mean.

574
00:59:33.910 --> 00:59:34.600
Tad Eggleston: Right.

575
00:59:34.946 --> 00:59:40.840
Tyler Johnson: So really loving it? Now, this one did this come out this week? Sync, 14. Because.

576
00:59:40.840 --> 00:59:47.590
Tad Eggleston: No, I think both of these next 2 ones actually came out last week. But with all the diamond issues they've they're getting to shops at different times.

577
00:59:47.590 --> 01:00:00.313
Tyler Johnson: I thought I thought that because I I went to the store, and these were both in my box, and I'm like, Wait a minute. Wasn't I supposed to get these last week? But they didn't come, so I apologize. They're not up to date.

578
01:00:00.590 --> 01:00:03.280
Tad Eggleston: But you're not the only one going through that.

579
01:00:03.570 --> 01:00:13.363
Tyler Johnson: Yeah. Sync, 14 from John Lease and Alex Mccormick great. We got to see the fox mask guy come back. I can't think of his name right now.

580
01:00:15.656 --> 01:00:32.910
Tyler Johnson: I'll look at real quick dig. Yep, and then epitass from the abyss, from Jordan, Thomas Cullen, Bun, Chris Condon, Andrea, Sorrentino and Valeria Bruzzo and Andrea Moody from Ec. Only continues to just be awesome.

581
01:00:33.570 --> 01:00:47.980
Tad Eggleston: Yeah, I loved string number 3 from Paul Tobin and Carlos Oliveras at Mad Cave, the girl that can see strings connecting people who murder each other, and people who have sex with each other.

582
01:00:47.980 --> 01:00:48.370
Tyler Johnson: It's okay.

583
01:00:48.370 --> 01:01:06.320
Tad Eggleston: Quiet. Number 23 from Christopher Cantwell, and on Zuetta Wharf's son is trying to reclaim his honor and black cloak. Number 11 from Kelly Thompson and Meredith Mclaren wraps up the second volume of black cloak

584
01:01:06.560 --> 01:01:12.879
Tad Eggleston: a nice nice tie up to to a great mystery and a really

585
01:01:13.070 --> 01:01:19.349
Tad Eggleston: creative and fantastic world. I love what Carrie Kelly and and Meredith are doing with this book. It's

586
01:01:19.850 --> 01:01:32.059
Tad Eggleston: big favorite of mine. So I I fixed your number for the one piece race because you put in 280, which which would have meant that you'd managed to forget like

587
01:01:35.420 --> 01:01:37.849
Tad Eggleston: 80 chapters from last week.

588
01:01:37.850 --> 01:01:42.050
Tyler Johnson: Yeah, you're correct. I'm on 3 80.

589
01:01:42.516 --> 01:01:43.450
Tad Eggleston: Are you?

590
01:01:43.450 --> 01:01:49.140
Tyler Johnson: Thanks for having my back, because I would have looked like an idiot. But 3 80 is where I'm at.

591
01:01:49.140 --> 01:02:01.190
Tad Eggleston: Yeah, rather than you know. Still, being like within 10 chapters of you suddenly would have been a hundred 8 chapters behind, even though I only read one volume this week.

592
01:02:01.190 --> 01:02:04.120
Tyler Johnson: Oh, man, it would have been funny if all

593
01:02:04.120 --> 01:02:07.849
Tyler Johnson: like I was so slow. I went backwards.

594
01:02:09.210 --> 01:02:12.050
Tad Eggleston: How about Luffy? This volume.

595
01:02:13.140 --> 01:02:16.070
Tad Eggleston: He is just taking it to another fucking.

596
01:02:16.070 --> 01:02:18.610
Tyler Johnson: Another level. He's just ramping it up.

597
01:02:19.330 --> 01:02:32.649
Tad Eggleston: I mean he he clearly cares about Robin, but I think he actually just cares about any of his crew members that much. I don't think it's specifically Robin. I think it's no you're fucking with my crew.

598
01:02:33.000 --> 01:02:41.730
Tyler Johnson: True, but I even felt like Robin, you know, has not been the most trustworthy right, and and so.

599
01:02:41.730 --> 01:02:42.690
Tad Eggleston: And doesn't matter to him.

600
01:02:43.080 --> 01:02:45.210
Tyler Johnson: Yeah, I know. And that's just.

601
01:02:45.210 --> 01:02:49.679
Tad Eggleston: Through his family, and he he loves them unconditionally, and like.

602
01:02:50.800 --> 01:02:51.560
Tyler Johnson: Yeah.

603
01:02:53.020 --> 01:03:01.773
Tyler Johnson: yeah, I agree. It's been great. I can't I? I can't find the time to really get a good chunk in this past week. But.

604
01:03:02.110 --> 01:03:06.530
Tad Eggleston: It's crazy like we have students and shit.

605
01:03:08.180 --> 01:03:08.500
Tad Eggleston: I mean.

606
01:03:08.500 --> 01:03:08.960
Tyler Johnson: And then.

607
01:03:08.960 --> 01:03:13.709
Tad Eggleston: Why won't they just be quiet and learn on their own? So we can read more comics.

608
01:03:13.900 --> 01:03:19.559
Tyler Johnson: Well, luckily for me, I don't have to grade a lot of papers. I I give them grades on their.

609
01:03:19.560 --> 01:03:20.527
Tad Eggleston: I don't either.

610
01:03:20.850 --> 01:03:29.927
Tyler Johnson: Yeah, I know you don't. I don't I? I grade their projects so it's a lot easier. I don't have to read stuff. I just have to look at their, you know. Do a visual grading?

611
01:03:30.180 --> 01:03:35.409
Tad Eggleston: I mean. So I have an idea for you. Okay? And and the way to make this work

612
01:03:35.630 --> 01:03:49.180
Tad Eggleston: is forget D's and F's entirely, and then just put a dart board together. That has a 3rd of it is an a 3rd of it is a B, and a 3rd of is a C. And anytime you see a picture, just toss a dart and go a.

613
01:03:50.530 --> 01:03:51.530
Tyler Johnson: B.

614
01:03:51.530 --> 01:04:01.790
Tyler Johnson: Yeah. Well, lucky for me I make. I have rubrics for all my projects, so I can go on there and see. You know, they get.

615
01:04:02.570 --> 01:04:03.140
Tyler Johnson: justify, voice.

616
01:04:03.140 --> 01:04:04.070
Tad Eggleston: To do.

617
01:04:04.070 --> 01:04:10.709
Tyler Johnson: Yeah, because so many times kids are going well, art is so subjective. How can you give me a B, that's an A, you just well, being.

618
01:04:10.710 --> 01:04:14.580
Tad Eggleston: You were supposed to do pencils, and you skipped them.

619
01:04:14.580 --> 01:04:18.480
Tyler Johnson: Yep, because and oh.

620
01:04:18.480 --> 01:04:20.990
Tad Eggleston: Supposed to be color, and it's black and white.

621
01:04:20.990 --> 01:04:36.279
Tyler Johnson: When I was working with my 7th graders. We're working on shading an apple right? And so I want to see 5 tones of gray and white counts white and black count. Right? So basically, I want white and black and 3 gray tones, and and

622
01:04:36.650 --> 01:04:39.599
Tyler Johnson: they can't do well, they can do it, but they don't want to.

623
01:04:41.977 --> 01:04:44.969
Tyler Johnson: Anyway. Let's get to our great responsibility.

624
01:04:44.970 --> 01:04:47.220
Tad Eggleston: He was a whole whole nother level. This?

625
01:04:48.280 --> 01:04:56.909
Tad Eggleston: Why getting to great responsibility? Yeah, no, I need to do more. Jules Pfeiffer. I. This book was amazing.

626
01:04:57.300 --> 01:04:57.740
Tyler Johnson: Yeah.

627
01:04:58.494 --> 01:05:10.460
Tyler Johnson: I agree. I actually picked it up at my library because I knew we had it when you suggested it. I didn't say it on the air, but I'm like, Oh, we have Jules Pfeiffer at our library. I'm good. I'm good.

628
01:05:11.640 --> 01:05:13.419
Tyler Johnson: Are you frozen, or you just off to the side.

629
01:05:13.420 --> 01:05:17.600
Tad Eggleston: No, I'm I'm leaning down to offer one of the new cats. Some treats.

630
01:05:17.880 --> 01:05:18.440
Tyler Johnson: Issue.

631
01:05:18.440 --> 01:05:20.680
Tad Eggleston: Will actually eat them from my hand.

632
01:05:21.040 --> 01:05:21.660
Tyler Johnson: Okay.

633
01:05:22.000 --> 01:05:24.150
Tad Eggleston: Because they're still kind of skittish.

634
01:05:24.490 --> 01:05:42.395
Tyler Johnson: And I'm so glad I did pick this up in physical format because it's oversized the the book that I have, and it's in this stunning black and gray watercolor, and it's just, you know, getting to see it in this bigger size as opposed to my tablet would have been.

635
01:05:42.900 --> 01:05:43.830
Tyler Johnson: I don't know if.

636
01:05:43.830 --> 01:05:46.279
Tad Eggleston: Well, and the story itself is amazing.

637
01:05:46.610 --> 01:05:47.260
Tyler Johnson: Yeah.

638
01:05:47.580 --> 01:05:54.169
Tad Eggleston: I I don't want to. I want to see if if you your head goes the same way. There is

639
01:05:54.280 --> 01:05:59.650
Tad Eggleston: one currently working artist that I kept going.

640
01:06:00.490 --> 01:06:04.840
Tad Eggleston: Oh, this is so much an influence on Blank.

641
01:06:06.570 --> 01:06:10.730
Tad Eggleston: and I meant it from both a writing and an art standpoint.

642
01:06:11.490 --> 01:06:13.780
Tyler Johnson: Okay, yes.

643
01:06:16.250 --> 01:06:22.540
Tyler Johnson: I mean, it looks it has a little Jeff Lemire Vibe to it. But I don't think that's who you're going with.

644
01:06:22.670 --> 01:06:23.850
Tad Eggleston: No, but but.

645
01:06:23.850 --> 01:06:24.570
Tyler Johnson: That's the story.

646
01:06:24.570 --> 01:06:26.190
Tad Eggleston: That's because it.

647
01:06:26.190 --> 01:06:28.631
Tyler Johnson: It's not really a Jeff Lemire story.

648
01:06:29.440 --> 01:06:31.630
Tad Eggleston: It's really, really close, because.

649
01:06:31.630 --> 01:06:32.020
Tyler Johnson: Okay.

650
01:06:32.020 --> 01:06:37.289
Tad Eggleston: Person I'm thinking of is the only person other than Jeff Lemire to draw any sweet tooth.

651
01:06:38.390 --> 01:06:42.300
Tyler Johnson: Oh, Dude! Who was that? Oh, man.

652
01:06:42.750 --> 01:06:44.520
Tyler Johnson: I don't know. Who is it?

653
01:06:44.520 --> 01:06:49.720
Tad Eggleston: It has a very matt. It feels like it's in Matt Kent's D.

654
01:06:49.720 --> 01:06:53.300
Tyler Johnson: Yeah. Matt, kid, yes. Oh, man, grass King.

655
01:06:53.300 --> 01:06:55.980
Tad Eggleston: Feels like it's in Matt Kent's DNA.

656
01:06:55.980 --> 01:07:02.130
Tyler Johnson: Yeah, like, I'm looking at my grass kings right over there. And yes, I agree with you.

657
01:07:02.130 --> 01:07:03.320
Tad Eggleston: Yeah, yeah.

658
01:07:03.320 --> 01:07:03.870
Tyler Johnson: Oh, man!

659
01:07:03.870 --> 01:07:08.019
Tad Eggleston: Yeah, no, this was, I mean, I didn't know what to expect, because you.

660
01:07:08.020 --> 01:07:08.659
Tyler Johnson: Did we say?

661
01:07:08.660 --> 01:07:09.589
Tad Eggleston: Don't know. Jules.

662
01:07:09.590 --> 01:07:10.200
Tyler Johnson: Either yet.

663
01:07:10.200 --> 01:07:14.840
Tad Eggleston: But well, yeah, kill my mother from Jules Pfeiffer is what we read.

664
01:07:17.050 --> 01:07:20.599
Tad Eggleston: And you know it's a loose art style, but it always worked.

665
01:07:20.600 --> 01:07:20.930
Tyler Johnson: Yeah.

666
01:07:20.930 --> 01:07:34.199
Tad Eggleston: He doesn't actually do a ton with panels, so he'll often draw you all over the place with word balloons. But he's really good at drawing you with those word balloons. Yeah. So you can just follow the balloons through the story.

667
01:07:34.790 --> 01:07:47.220
Tyler Johnson: You know his handwriting is a little bit tough to read, you know his word balloons look like his own handwriting, I'm guessing, but it's it's just tough to read a little bit.

668
01:07:47.220 --> 01:07:49.680
Tad Eggleston: It's a more classic script.

669
01:07:49.680 --> 01:07:51.490
Tyler Johnson: Yep, yep, it's more

670
01:07:51.830 --> 01:07:53.130
Tad Eggleston: Script, but.

671
01:07:53.130 --> 01:07:53.700
Tyler Johnson: You.

672
01:07:54.030 --> 01:07:59.030
Tyler Johnson: I like how it was broken into chapters, I mean, since it's it's a bigger, bigger story.

673
01:07:59.030 --> 01:08:09.179
Tad Eggleston: Short chapters. But but yeah, broken into chapters broken into parts. You've got like.

674
01:08:10.750 --> 01:08:18.270
Tad Eggleston: I mean, I call it a coming of age story, except that it like skipped the decade where where the coming of age happens. So it's like you got to see

675
01:08:19.300 --> 01:08:25.299
Tad Eggleston: a young mother and her teenage preteen kid and

676
01:08:25.770 --> 01:08:39.960
Tad Eggleston: the the preteens like boyfriend slash hanger on. And then you're 10 years later, and it's the older mother with the estranged 20 something, kid and the boyfriend who's now at war.

677
01:08:40.300 --> 01:08:41.800
Tyler Johnson: Yep, yeah.

678
01:08:41.800 --> 01:08:45.310
Tyler Johnson: Yep, it does skip those those 4.

679
01:08:45.310 --> 01:08:54.319
Tad Eggleston: You still feel like you're getting. You still feel like you're getting that come of it. I mean, you can feel the the time in between, you know. Got set up well enough

680
01:08:54.790 --> 01:09:01.460
Tad Eggleston: on the beginning, you know, to get you to the characters, making sense in.

681
01:09:01.460 --> 01:09:01.910
Tyler Johnson: There's new.

682
01:09:01.910 --> 01:09:03.060
Tad Eggleston: Forms.

683
01:09:03.060 --> 01:09:03.410
Tyler Johnson: Yep.

684
01:09:03.811 --> 01:09:09.839
Tad Eggleston: There was a murder mystery mixed in. There was a missing person mystery mixed in.

685
01:09:09.840 --> 01:09:10.310
Tyler Johnson: Yeah.

686
01:09:11.840 --> 01:09:16.469
Tyler Johnson: Not that I want to give Neil Gaiman any credit, because I mean he's got his own problems right now.

687
01:09:16.470 --> 01:09:17.439
Tad Eggleston: Moment. But

688
01:09:18.640 --> 01:09:29.180
Tyler Johnson: His quote on the cover as a frenetic, funny, heartbreaking, intrinsically plotted, glorious story, as good a book as you are likely to read, and that is that kind of hits.

689
01:09:29.189 --> 01:09:36.089
Tad Eggleston: I mean, for that matter, I really stuck out to me that the like 1st chapter of Part 2,

690
01:09:36.219 --> 01:09:43.389
Tad Eggleston: where you're you're hearing well reading. But but you're hearing the radio drama.

691
01:09:43.509 --> 01:09:47.249
Tyler Johnson: Yeah, but you're hearing it while you're seeing the visuals.

692
01:09:48.499 --> 01:09:51.049
Tad Eggleston: From the jungle, and, like the Philippines.

693
01:09:51.310 --> 01:09:53.010
Tyler Johnson: Yeah, that's cool.

694
01:09:53.010 --> 01:09:59.490
Tad Eggleston: Was just crazy, and I really didn't need that breaking news right now.

695
01:09:59.970 --> 01:10:04.699
Tad Eggleston: Apparently Elon Musk and his people now have

696
01:10:04.910 --> 01:10:08.850
Tad Eggleston: access to the Federal payment system.

697
01:10:09.190 --> 01:10:12.829
Tyler Johnson: Yeah, yeah, that happened a little bit earlier.

698
01:10:13.329 --> 01:10:16.220
Tyler Johnson: While I was working at the library today, I've been.

699
01:10:16.220 --> 01:10:18.830
Tad Eggleston: Okay, yeah. I just got a news. Alert.

700
01:10:19.220 --> 01:10:28.229
Tyler Johnson: Yeah, yeah, it's scary man. They're they're taking control of medicare and you know, social security. Right?

701
01:10:28.230 --> 01:10:31.519
Tad Eggleston: Or at least they have. They have the ability to.

702
01:10:31.520 --> 01:10:35.830
Tyler Johnson: And you know they're not gonna just sit there and look at it. They got plans for that money.

703
01:10:36.143 --> 01:10:39.280
Tad Eggleston: To be honest, you know what I'm most worried about.

704
01:10:39.500 --> 01:10:40.100
Tyler Johnson: What?

705
01:10:41.440 --> 01:10:44.380
Tad Eggleston: This also means they can overpay themselves.

706
01:10:45.000 --> 01:10:45.760
Tyler Johnson: Oh, yeah.

707
01:10:46.970 --> 01:11:00.369
Tad Eggleston: I mean don't get me wrong. I'm really worried about payments, not going to people that they're they're going to. But I don't think it's gonna save money, either, because I'm really worried about embezzlement. I don't trust those guys further than I can throw them.

708
01:11:00.370 --> 01:11:05.000
Tyler Johnson: Oh, 100%. This isn't about saving money. This isn't about none of it is about.

709
01:11:05.000 --> 01:11:08.309
Tad Eggleston: It's about access to the biggest piggy bank in the world.

710
01:11:08.710 --> 01:11:09.790
Tyler Johnson: Exactly.

711
01:11:10.440 --> 01:11:11.879
Tyler Johnson: Yes, yes, yes.

712
01:11:11.880 --> 01:11:14.439
Tad Eggleston: Because it's not good enough to be the richest guy in the world.

713
01:11:15.490 --> 01:11:24.739
Tyler Johnson: No, what my wife and I were talking about this yesterday. Why doesn't Elon just go anywhere in the world and set himself? I mean he doesn't.

714
01:11:25.430 --> 01:11:29.259
Tad Eggleston: You'll never work through all that money. What? What is the? That's exactly

715
01:11:29.260 --> 01:11:38.749
Tad Eggleston: what he has done. He chose the United States, and he's setting up his island. He's getting us into the position where we will be his humble, servile servants.

716
01:11:38.750 --> 01:11:43.363
Tyler Johnson: Yeah, you're right. I just look. I buy an island of my own somewhere, and just sit there.

717
01:11:43.620 --> 01:11:45.060
Tad Eggleston: That's what he's doing.

718
01:11:45.200 --> 01:11:46.770
Tyler Johnson: Yeah, you're right?

719
01:11:46.910 --> 01:11:51.820
Tad Eggleston: I mean you and I. We think small. We think a nice desert island, with a nice

720
01:11:52.720 --> 01:11:56.590
Tad Eggleston: climate, and either no servants at all, or like

721
01:11:57.580 --> 01:12:02.070
Tad Eggleston: a handful of people that aren't even really servants they're really well paid to help us with.

722
01:12:02.070 --> 01:12:05.890
Tad Eggleston: I have a would be really nice in his mind.

723
01:12:05.890 --> 01:12:06.460
Tyler Johnson: Yep.

724
01:12:07.450 --> 01:12:15.639
Tad Eggleston: He needs to be able to do whatever he wants whenever he wants, wherever he wants, with whomever he wants.

725
01:12:15.830 --> 01:12:16.390
Tyler Johnson: Yeah.

726
01:12:17.040 --> 01:12:24.399
Tad Eggleston: And they need to be beaten into submission to the point that, like they'll feel grateful.

727
01:12:29.110 --> 01:12:31.280
Tyler Johnson: I agree, yeah.

728
01:12:31.470 --> 01:12:37.040
Tyler Johnson: Anyhow, that was kill my mother by Jules, piper, we gotta do more jules.

729
01:12:37.040 --> 01:12:39.749
Tad Eggleston: And now the tariffs have officially gone into place.

730
01:12:40.544 --> 01:12:41.966
Tyler Johnson: And you know,

731
01:12:42.640 --> 01:12:46.859
Tad Eggleston: So this time next week the stock market will have fallen again.

732
01:12:46.860 --> 01:12:47.580
Tyler Johnson: Again.

733
01:12:48.100 --> 01:12:49.699
Tyler Johnson: I don't know exactly.

734
01:12:49.700 --> 01:12:53.140
Tad Eggleston: Prices and gas prices will be significantly higher.

735
01:12:54.471 --> 01:13:02.430
Tyler Johnson: Trudeau is planning to hit back with his own tariffs, and it's gonna be really high. We are just going to climb.

736
01:13:02.430 --> 01:13:10.939
Tad Eggleston: Well, and and he's he's he is actually smart about it. He's going higher on specific things that Canada doesn't even need

737
01:13:12.550 --> 01:13:18.310
Tad Eggleston: just enough to piss off trump supporters. Florida orange juice is top of their list.

738
01:13:21.220 --> 01:13:21.950
Tyler Johnson: Funny.

739
01:13:22.990 --> 01:13:27.360
Tad Eggleston: Mind you, you can get orange juice from California.

740
01:13:29.990 --> 01:13:31.309
Tyler Johnson: That's true.

741
01:13:31.700 --> 01:13:32.180
Tad Eggleston: And.

742
01:13:32.180 --> 01:13:32.970
Tyler Johnson: Oh, man!

743
01:13:36.096 --> 01:13:37.889
Tad Eggleston: Yeah. Ugh!

744
01:13:39.470 --> 01:13:41.249
Tad Eggleston: The Wall Street Journal.

745
01:13:42.530 --> 01:13:42.900
Tyler Johnson: Steam.

746
01:13:42.900 --> 01:13:46.770
Tad Eggleston: Bastion of of liberal thought. We all know

747
01:13:48.790 --> 01:13:50.490
Tyler Johnson: Okay, I was like, what.

748
01:13:54.580 --> 01:13:58.980
Tad Eggleston: Actually called this possibly the dumbest trade war ever.

749
01:13:59.840 --> 01:14:00.730
Tyler Johnson: Oh, yeah.

750
01:14:01.180 --> 01:14:10.200
Tad Eggleston: If you can't get the Wall Street Journal to back you on things that will be good for billionaires.

751
01:14:10.410 --> 01:14:12.020
Tad Eggleston: you need to think about.

752
01:14:12.020 --> 01:14:20.019
Tyler Johnson: Okay. So you know, this war on Fentanyl. I get, I get that. But like this isn't the way to do that.

753
01:14:21.520 --> 01:14:32.469
Tad Eggleston: I mean, I mean, among other things, with Fentanyl in particular. I don't know how clear it is, how much of it is coming from over the borders.

754
01:14:34.110 --> 01:14:35.810
Tyler Johnson: Exactly from what I knew.

755
01:14:36.510 --> 01:14:48.600
Tad Eggleston: I'm pretty certain that it's I mean, because it's a synthetic substance. I'm pretty certain I haven't like dug into it yet, but we've had similar issues in the past.

756
01:14:48.760 --> 01:14:49.120
Tyler Johnson: Yeah.

757
01:14:49.502 --> 01:14:56.310
Tad Eggleston: I would be willing to bet that like significant portions of

758
01:15:02.080 --> 01:15:11.576
Tad Eggleston: the ingredients come from American pharmaceutical companies, right? So

759
01:15:13.530 --> 01:15:18.969
Tad Eggleston: We might actually be able to

760
01:15:20.060 --> 01:15:26.670
Tad Eggleston: cut down on it by by regulating our own.

761
01:15:28.010 --> 01:15:33.589
Tad Eggleston: Yeah. Cause the 1st Fentanyl it was actually a yeah

762
01:15:34.270 --> 01:15:39.750
Tad Eggleston: Fentora fentanyl bucala tablet. Each tablet contains. Yeah. So so I mean.

763
01:15:40.290 --> 01:15:43.709
Tad Eggleston: it starts from an FDA approved drug.

764
01:15:45.490 --> 01:15:47.339
Tad Eggleston: They just made it stronger.

765
01:15:47.830 --> 01:16:08.759
Tad Eggleston: And mind you, I have seen reports that actually the biggest reason that Fentanyl deaths have gone down significantly in the last year is nothing that Congress or the Biden Administration or the Short Trump Administration has done. It's that go figure. It's not actually good for drug dealers to kill their clientele.

766
01:16:08.760 --> 01:16:09.950
Tyler Johnson: To kill or kill the people.

767
01:16:10.130 --> 01:16:15.459
Tad Eggleston: The people working hardest to to make Fentanyl not quite so deadly.

768
01:16:15.880 --> 01:16:18.099
Tyler Johnson: Have been the people making it.

769
01:16:18.500 --> 01:16:22.930
Tad Eggleston: Exactly like the bad for business to kill.

770
01:16:22.930 --> 01:16:23.560
Tyler Johnson: 2 years ago.

771
01:16:23.560 --> 01:16:24.230
Tad Eggleston: Customers.

772
01:16:24.230 --> 01:16:33.960
Tyler Johnson: Even even a few, like 2 or 3 years ago, when we had fentanyl training at school. Just the the tiniest little pinhead of Fentanyl.

773
01:16:34.640 --> 01:16:36.620
Tyler Johnson: We'll kill you, and it's like.

774
01:16:36.800 --> 01:16:37.360
Tad Eggleston: Yeah.

775
01:16:37.940 --> 01:16:38.780
Tyler Johnson: Well, that's what we.

776
01:16:38.780 --> 01:16:49.730
Tad Eggleston: I don't know that that was ever true, but that's definitely like the number of stuff that they taught I mean Fentanyl and Candy. No, there was never Fentanyl in candy form.

777
01:16:50.940 --> 01:16:51.470
Tyler Johnson: No.

778
01:16:51.470 --> 01:16:55.119
Tad Eggleston: Warning, where is the prophet in that.

779
01:16:56.620 --> 01:16:57.286
Tyler Johnson: I agree.

780
01:16:57.700 --> 01:17:12.650
Tad Eggleston: Fentanyl is not coming across the border for evil purpose. I mean, I'm not saying that it's a good thing, but but the only evil that it's involved in is capitalism, illegal capitalism. But capitalism nonetheless.

781
01:17:12.650 --> 01:17:13.830
Tyler Johnson: It's money.

782
01:17:15.680 --> 01:17:17.240
Tyler Johnson: Oh, you're right.

783
01:17:17.240 --> 01:17:23.030
Tad Eggleston: There's there's no profit in killing people with with their Halloween candy.

784
01:17:26.760 --> 01:17:28.379
Tyler Johnson: Yeah, it doesn't make sense.

785
01:17:28.380 --> 01:17:45.009
Tad Eggleston: Anyway. How about some good looking stuff from next week? I know one that you've been looking forward to. The give me liberty, a revised History of the American Revolution from Gilbert Shelton, Ted, Richard Gary, Halgren, and Willie Murphy will come out from fanagraphics next week.

786
01:17:46.670 --> 01:18:05.660
Tad Eggleston: 4th volume of What's the furthest place from here for Matthew Rosenberg and Tyler boss will be out next week, and I don't think you have it up yet, but I did send you a link to the Matthew Rosenberg talk, didn't I? Right? Probably by the time you're listening to this you can listen to. My brother Peter and I talked to Matthew Rosenberg.

787
01:18:06.390 --> 01:18:10.640
Tad Eggleston: and my picks are are Caitlin Yarski's 3rd

788
01:18:10.770 --> 01:18:14.490
Tad Eggleston: issue of Living Hell at a dark horse,

789
01:18:19.560 --> 01:18:26.790
Tad Eggleston: Chip Zdarsky and Jorge Jimenez and Tony S. Daniels. Final issue of Batman at DC. Batman, one.

790
01:18:26.790 --> 01:18:27.110
Tyler Johnson: Yeah.

791
01:18:28.590 --> 01:18:34.230
Tad Eggleston: And then snot girl number 18 from Brian Lee, O'malley and Leslie. Young.

792
01:18:35.060 --> 01:18:42.250
Tyler Johnson: My comic shop got shorted on all of those, so I didn't even get a chance to not batman. We had Batman.

793
01:18:42.250 --> 01:18:46.909
Tad Eggleston: But no, they haven't been shorted yet. These are books we hope will be spectacular. They come out this coming Wednesday dude.

794
01:18:46.910 --> 01:18:49.789
Tyler Johnson: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm like, we didn't. We didn't have that. I'm like.

795
01:18:49.790 --> 01:19:00.930
Tad Eggleston: Yeah, yeah, I mean, clearly, your your comic shop got shorted on Ripperland, because that came out digitally 2 weeks ago, and and physically this last week, but I think Dark horse

796
01:19:02.040 --> 01:19:04.549
Tad Eggleston: dark horse, is switching to prh.

797
01:19:04.850 --> 01:19:07.559
Tad Eggleston: but I think they're just switching to prh.

798
01:19:08.420 --> 01:19:11.199
Tyler Johnson: I? Yeah, I just left it on the list because I didn't get it.

799
01:19:11.200 --> 01:19:14.079
Tad Eggleston: Yeah, you haven't gotten to read it yet. Makes sense. Yep.

800
01:19:14.080 --> 01:19:22.580
Tyler Johnson: Yup. What I'm looking forward to is when I lay my vengeance upon the number 2. I just picked up Number one the other day and really loved it.

801
01:19:22.580 --> 01:19:23.650
Tyler Johnson: I thought she'd read.

802
01:19:24.240 --> 01:19:34.570
Tad Eggleston: I thought you read Number one when I read number One, I read because you had it as one that you were excited for. Yeah. And then I wound up, having it as one that I thought was amazing, and I thought you hadn't liked it as much as me.

803
01:19:35.250 --> 01:19:38.559
Tyler Johnson: Well, I bought it. I've read it. I've read it online.

804
01:19:38.560 --> 01:19:40.890
Tad Eggleston: I have. I have high hopes for it.

805
01:19:40.890 --> 01:19:41.300
Tyler Johnson: Yeah.

806
01:19:41.300 --> 01:19:43.539
Tad Eggleston: That's why it made my amazing list.

807
01:19:43.540 --> 01:19:47.150
Tyler Johnson: Yeah. Gus Marino and Jacob Rebelka.

808
01:19:47.822 --> 01:19:54.450
Tyler Johnson: green Hornet and Miss Fury, number 2 from Alex. Segura and Federico. Sora Teresa.

809
01:19:54.660 --> 01:20:00.830
Tad Eggleston: I have. I have number one. I haven't read Number One, but I'm looking forward to it, so

810
01:20:00.830 --> 01:20:04.289
Tad Eggleston: haven't read either of them yet, but I love me some Alex Segura.

811
01:20:04.530 --> 01:20:22.730
Tyler Johnson: And I love green hornet. I don't know the character of Miss Fury as well. Right? Obviously I've seen her before, but like so I'm kind of excited to see what Alex does with it. And then Ripper, Ripperland, number one, I've been waiting for it. I should just read it online, John Harris Dunning, Steve Orlando, and Alessandro Oliveri from Dark Horse.

812
01:20:22.950 --> 01:20:28.410
Tad Eggleston: This, I the 1st issue is definitely a setup issue.

813
01:20:28.620 --> 01:20:38.460
Tad Eggleston: So I don't know if I love love the 1st issue, though I can definitely see winding up where I love it. I do love the concept. That post Brexit

814
01:20:38.790 --> 01:20:45.260
Tad Eggleston: England fell so far that they essentially turned themselves into a Theme park for American Tourists.

815
01:20:46.570 --> 01:20:47.050
Tyler Johnson: Wow!

816
01:20:47.050 --> 01:20:52.640
Tad Eggleston: So so so they're Victorian again, because they're a theme park for American tourists.

817
01:20:53.180 --> 01:20:53.980
Tyler Johnson: Oh, funny!

818
01:20:54.460 --> 01:20:55.070
Tad Eggleston: Yeah.

819
01:20:55.540 --> 01:20:56.070
Tyler Johnson: Cool.

820
01:20:56.530 --> 01:21:01.499
Tad Eggleston: That's that's their their export or import. I don't know how you wanna yeah.

821
01:21:02.350 --> 01:21:03.160
Tyler Johnson: All right. What was your.

822
01:21:03.160 --> 01:21:05.010
Tad Eggleston: Brexit. They became a theme park.

823
01:21:05.510 --> 01:21:06.410
Tyler Johnson: When we get so

824
01:21:06.410 --> 01:21:10.339
Tyler Johnson: off of the recording, let's figure out what we want to talk about for next week.

825
01:21:10.870 --> 01:21:23.410
Tad Eggleston: Yeah, well, I mean, I have one idea that just make my reading easier, because we're going to be reading at least some of it for Britt's Cabinet. Which have you ever read Paul Chadwick's concrete.

826
01:21:24.260 --> 01:21:27.730
Tyler Johnson: No, but I'm looking at right now. I'm gonna look it up all, Chadwick.

827
01:21:28.160 --> 01:21:30.769
Tad Eggleston: There's 7 volumes.

828
01:21:31.350 --> 01:21:32.410
Tyler Johnson: School.

829
01:21:32.410 --> 01:21:36.760
Tad Eggleston: I don't know if I'd want to do 7 weeks with it, but maybe 2 volumes a week.

830
01:21:36.760 --> 01:21:37.560
Tyler Johnson: Yeah.

831
01:21:37.680 --> 01:21:41.510
Tyler Johnson: Well, yeah, it looks awesome.

832
01:21:41.510 --> 01:21:42.969
Tyler Johnson: And they're on hoopla.

833
01:21:43.230 --> 01:21:45.779
Tyler Johnson: Okay. Came out in the eighties. Huh? I hadn't even heard of it.

834
01:21:45.780 --> 01:21:51.820
Tad Eggleston: Started in the eighties. Yeah, I've heard of it, but I've only read some of the short stories. I haven't read much of it.

835
01:21:51.980 --> 01:21:53.649
Tyler Johnson: Okay. I'm down.

836
01:21:53.930 --> 01:21:57.120
Tad Eggleston: Okay. So so we'll do. We'll do concrete.

837
01:21:57.120 --> 01:22:05.800
Tyler Johnson: Okay, it looks cool. The cover I'm looking at for the complete concrete. It's got a rock guy in his face. You know. I yeah, it's cool.

838
01:22:06.250 --> 01:22:09.500
Tad Eggleston: Yeah, so all right, that.

839
01:22:09.500 --> 01:22:09.989
Tyler Johnson: There we go!

840
01:22:10.280 --> 01:22:16.749
Tad Eggleston: We'll do the 1st 2 volumes of concrete for next week. Perfect, though at some point I also want to do.

841
01:22:17.140 --> 01:22:23.720
Tad Eggleston: Maybe let's let's even plan it right now, unless something else comes up. I want to do. Let's spend

842
01:22:24.840 --> 01:22:27.589
Tad Eggleston: 3, maybe 4 weeks with concrete.

843
01:22:27.740 --> 01:22:30.320
Tad Eggleston: But then I really wanted to.

844
01:22:32.000 --> 01:22:35.729
Tad Eggleston: Why am I drawing a blank on it right now? The the.

845
01:22:35.730 --> 01:22:36.089
Tyler Johnson: For a city.

846
01:22:36.090 --> 01:22:37.090
Tad Eggleston: Monstrous.

847
01:22:37.510 --> 01:22:39.000
Tad Eggleston: Oh, sure!

848
01:22:39.560 --> 01:22:43.239
Tad Eggleston: Maybe maybe we will do. The new volume of Astro City in between.

849
01:22:43.370 --> 01:22:43.700
Tyler Johnson: Okay.

850
01:22:43.700 --> 01:22:46.480
Tad Eggleston: But I really want to do monstrous.

851
01:22:46.480 --> 01:22:47.140
Tyler Johnson: Okay.

852
01:22:47.450 --> 01:23:01.860
Tad Eggleston: Because I've been wanting to read that forever, and I've read like the 1st couple of volumes a couple of times, and just never managed to keep going, and it's dense enough that it's 1 that's much better if you can keep going, because otherwise you just got to go back and start over.

853
01:23:01.860 --> 01:23:04.040
Tyler Johnson: So packed. It's so packed. Yeah.

854
01:23:04.040 --> 01:23:05.500
Tad Eggleston: Right, right.

855
01:23:05.630 --> 01:23:08.250
Tyler Johnson: I'm looking it up right now. What's the who wrote it?

856
01:23:08.250 --> 01:23:14.500
Tad Eggleston: Also on hoopla. Monstrous! It's Marjorie Liu and Taka Sanita.

857
01:23:15.390 --> 01:23:17.160
Tyler Johnson: Okay from image comics.

858
01:23:17.160 --> 01:23:18.330
Tyler Johnson: Found it. Yep.

859
01:23:18.330 --> 01:23:25.129
Tad Eggleston: And they've got like the the 3 volume. Hardcovers, like Saga does.

860
01:23:25.130 --> 01:23:25.860
Tyler Johnson: You have.

861
01:23:26.160 --> 01:23:29.380
Tad Eggleston: So I was thinking that we might just do it like that.

862
01:23:29.800 --> 01:23:30.460
Tyler Johnson: Okay.

863
01:23:31.230 --> 01:23:36.440
Tad Eggleston: Because Hoopla has them that way, too. So we can do the the book rather than the volume.

864
01:23:36.580 --> 01:23:39.819
Tad Eggleston: And it's like 18 issues rather than 6.

865
01:23:40.660 --> 01:23:45.520
Tad Eggleston: Okay, so I'm down there. We just planned out probably the rest of the school year.

866
01:23:45.870 --> 01:23:49.599
Tad Eggleston: barring barring anything where we go. Hey? We need to do this.

867
01:23:49.600 --> 01:23:57.880
Tyler Johnson: Between concrete and monstrous, and then a little bit of astro City, probably an issue of

868
01:23:58.985 --> 01:24:01.259
Tyler Johnson: the manga we've been reading. I'm drawing.

869
01:24:01.260 --> 01:24:04.050
Tad Eggleston: Isadora will come out before the end of the school year.

870
01:24:04.340 --> 01:24:05.090
Tyler Johnson: Okay.

871
01:24:05.990 --> 01:24:07.659
Tad Eggleston: But yeah, maybe this summer.

872
01:24:07.920 --> 01:24:08.500
Tad Eggleston: Yeah.

873
01:24:09.590 --> 01:24:10.170
Tyler Johnson: Okay. Cool.

874
01:24:10.170 --> 01:24:11.170
Tad Eggleston: It'll work out well.

875
01:24:11.410 --> 01:24:13.139
Tyler Johnson: Alright, guys, let's let's.

876
01:24:13.140 --> 01:24:17.629
Tad Eggleston: Let's plan on 4 weeks of concrete.

877
01:24:17.870 --> 01:24:18.220
Tyler Johnson: Okay.

878
01:24:18.220 --> 01:24:20.170
Tad Eggleston: One week at Astro City.

879
01:24:21.500 --> 01:24:25.920
Tad Eggleston: And then it'll be at least 3 weeks of

880
01:24:29.340 --> 01:24:44.059
Tad Eggleston: Monstrous. Actually, we'll plant 3 to 4 weeks of concrete. We'll see how we feel after the second week on whether we want to do the last 3 books in one week, or whether we want to split them between 2, because there's 7 books.

881
01:24:44.420 --> 01:24:44.960
Tyler Johnson: Yep.

882
01:24:46.210 --> 01:24:47.290
Tad Eggleston: Sound, fair.

883
01:24:47.290 --> 01:24:48.510
Tyler Johnson: Yeah. Sounds. Great.
