    Ideas Don’t Bleed is a fantastic podcast! It’s great to be able to listen to it while working at the warehouse, it’s like getting paid to learn about comic book creation. I’ve also found a lot of new titles to read! Thanks for such an insightful fun show! The hosts, organisers and guests are amazing!

  • My Dinner with Matthew, Ethan, and Griffin

    I read “4 Kids Walk Into a Bank.” The comfort that comes from a good story, which is “4 Kids Walk Into a Bank,” is priceless. “Ideas Don’t Bleed,” which happens to be hosted partly by the guy who wrote “4 Kids Walk Into a Bank,” pairs well with my prepping for dinners. I cut vegetables; I smash garlic cloves; I mince herbs; I hang out with everyone at “Ideas Don’t Bleed.” Their love for comics is augmented with their love for movies, music, and good conversation.

    Fun. Really informative. Definitely fun. It doesn’t take itself too seriously, and yet it’s always seriously dropping excellent ideas and knowledge. A must listen for fans and creators.

Q: Why an apple pie milkshake?
It's a metaphor. It's a thing you should hate. It's like a terrible amalgamation of two desserts that are good on their own.
