Episode 89: Samson on 'Shrooms!

 

...and we're back! This episode you will learn the true identity of trans-temporal shamus, Time Dick!, and enjoy the sweet schadenfreude of hearing Jeff finally answer for his many crimes against the time line. Then the multitalented writer-artist Steve Van Samson drops by to discuss his new dark fantasy novel,   Mark of the Witchwyrm, and everyone is having a great time, when suddenly--without warning--he whips out the mushroom-headed horror that is...MATANGO!

Hey! A Word From the Senior Partner

Hello, everyone. Jeff here. Taking a minute to fill you all in on what's been going on in my life. Strap in.

Most of you know this: last year I was diagnosed with stage 3 bladder cancer. It was bad. I had my bladder and my prostate removed, I pee out of a piece of intestine poking out of my stomach (I named my stoma Kuato) and I get monthly medical supplies.

I went through a round of chemo. It was bad, but, for now I am cancer free.

I went through this during lockdown. Dealt with it pretty much alone.

Two months ago I had to leave my apartment. I am homeless now. I am staying with a friend while we are looking for a house. I am working on getting disability (new lawyer says there's a good chance) trying to get food stamps. The cancer and the chemo and dealing with it during a pandemic screwed me bad. Also, don't know how long I will be able to stay here.

The weird thing is, mentally I am better than I have been in years. I'm writing again, something I haven't been able to do since before my mother died.

So mentally, I am ok. I am trying to build a new life. Literally starting over from scratch. I had to leave everything behind. I have six shirts, two pairs of pants, and a PS3 to my name. That is it. I am trying to rebuild from the ground up. Scared as hell, but again, mentally I am ok.

But I do need help. If you have helped me this past year, words cannot express my gratitude. You have kept me alive. All I ask from you is that you share this. My PayPal is 

https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/holland3275

If you can help, thank you. If you have helped me in the past, thank you. If all you do is share this. Thank you.

I am trying to start anew, and to not wind up in a homeless shelter. I get back on my feet, the amount of IT I will pay forward is...I'll pay it forward!

Thank you for your help keeping me alive this past year and thank you for any help that can be given now. I really need it more than ever.

Thank you and bless you.

Jeff

Episode 84: The Unkindest Snyder Cut of All

 

Well, it's a (relatively) new year, and a few new films are tentatively poking their heads above ground like so many celluloid Punxsutawney Phils, so we've pulled the New Movie Crew out of mothballs. But we're all a little rusty from the long off-season, so we're going to start easy, with a film that's only mostly new:

Zack Snyder's Justice League! 

Less Joss.

More Snyd.
