Best comic interview podcast around!
Well…I’ve gone from loving this show, to being a patreon supporter, to not supporting and unfollowing the show.

I’ve been listening to this podcast for over a year and every interview is interesting.
Been a listener for many years! Loved so many of the conversations.
I have listened to WB since 2007 I think and it is the best comic interview podcast out there. John is great at directing the conversation, asking interesting questions and just letting the comic creators really talk and shine. I read the new birds of prey because of his Kelly Thompson interview. Good stuff.
