Dave’s a great interviewer, highly recommend his podcasts, shows, and lives. Dave is my hero, more people should be like him. That is all!
Stumbled across this after looking for OAX content and wow! Dave is an absolute gem - this is such a refreshing show to listen to. Super relaxed vibes makes you wanna kick back and just hangout. Love the show and is a must listen for anyone especially Marvel fans.
I have been watching West Coast Davengers YouTube channel for almost two years now and discovered this channel searching for interviews with cartoonist. Now I have been working my way through his podcast and enjoying them.
Thanks for keeping me company while I am drawing Dave and keep the episodes coming.
Dave runs some of my fave comic book channels and this podcast is a great supplement! Interviews or Dave just venting a little, it’s always good. Cohost Tim is ALWAYS a treat.
Dave’s a natural. Always worth your time
