    #187: Star Wars Celebration Japan wrap
    Apr 21 2025

    Star Wars Celebration Japan is in the books and to help break down all the fun, excitement and announcements, I invited two people who were glued to all the feeds the whole weekend and brought back plenty of good notes. Literally pages of good notes. CWK and SW Community veteran Mary Purdue and Anthony King from FORCE GHOST CONVERSATIONS join me and help break it down day by day. t’s a fun conversation and it was great to get together, even if only on Zoom instead of in person.

    #186: C2E2 - APALOOZA 2025
    Apr 12 2025
    A SUPERSIZED episode packed with tons of interviews with artists, authors, creators, cosplayers and collectors from the first day of C2E2 2025. This year the largest comic and pop culture convention in the region took place from April 11-13 at the McCormick Convention Center in downtown Chicago. With panels from such massive fandoms as the Lord of the Rings, and a reunion of the cast of the 80’s movie The Breakfast Club, along with plenty of other celebrities on hand for autos and pictures, C2E2 was set to draw even larger crowds this year, as the numbers have been increasing exponentially since the close of the pandemic years where shows were postponed.I was able to talk with folks I knew and have had on the show before, and talk to a bunch of new creators and people who were ready to show their wares to the fans coming in. A big thanks to all who gave me some of their time and were so awesome to peel back some of the curtain on how things work if you are there to show off your work. Plus plenty of tips for you if you want to attend and check out some of the show areas.Check out the full list of people below and be sure to check out, like and subscribe their pages and social sites. They put a lot of hard work in to help make the fabric of the show so amazing.Once again the 501st, Mandalorian Mercs, Rebel Legion was part of the Family HQ block and had some great displays set up for folks to take pictures.Featured Guests:Daniel Govar - ArtistWebsite: https://www.danielgovar.comStore: https://danielgovar.bigcartel.com@saulone on Twitter@danielgovar on InstagramNick & Candace PobladorCNFactoryhttps://www.etsy.com/shop/cnfactoryOn Instagram @cnfactorychiBret JulianoArtist & Illustrator@dustbunnymahfia on IGbret@dustbunnymafia.comComics.dustbunny.comMikey BabinskiMikey Babinski @mikey_babinski on InstagramWSTR/BigTLilT Podcast @tizzzzod on Instagram, Twitter @WSTRmedia and @bigtliltpodcast WSTR/BigTLilT Podcast @tizzzzod on Instagram, Twitter @WSTRmedia and @bigtliltpodcast Todd HoffmanKarl Schmidt Joe BialekVictor @fandadsAshleigh poppellwellArturo Delgado@TuroseekerJavier Esqueda TK-265 @joliet_batmanShawn Mika @fettcicleKira Mashado @kirra_karabastNicole Markhenke Instagram @peacelovefandoms - @PL_Fandoms on X@red5readingBill & Celeste Hjelmgren https://www.nonsportcardshows.com/Karl Schmidt - Collector@pileo64 on InstagramJared Nielsen Ultraman Card Gamehttps://ultraman-cardgame.com/page/us/topChristopher Brimmage - AuthorMandrill, P.I.https://www.kickstarter.com/profile/brimmageAshleigh PopplewellArtist@ampopplewell on IGwww.ashleighpopplewell.comHomestead KeepingThe latest issue of (Apr/May 25) has a nice retrospective article on the Living Set, one year after the 500 card set came to a close. In 2019 Kris Penix was signed on to do 2 arts portraits of Star Wars characters that were made into cards featuring the classic 1977 design. Later on the run, Carlos Cabaleiro was added to the roster and he and Kris had an amazing run of work on the set. I was fortunate enough to be interviewed by writer Bryan Pillai for the piece along with both artists.
