You may recognize Alejandro from the books he's edited recently, including Sacrifice, Casanova, Osborn: Evil Incarcerated and Red Skull: Incarnate. Sacrifice #3 is even out today! How about that? We talk to Alejandro about the art of editing, his government-sponsored writing sabbatical, how the Eleventh Doctor stole his style and, much more importantly, BEES! James and Alejandro both love bees, which means this is a special BEE TALK episode! Learn while you listen, even if it's just about the reality TV show we're pitching.

In this episode, the boys talk to acclaimed writer Sam Humphries (Our Love is Real, Sacrifice, Fraggle Rock, CBGB: The Comic and the upcoming John Carter: The God of Mars) about comics, self-publishing and System D, MySpace Comics and how life with him "would become a depressing mix of explosions and chemical spills and wolves." I believe this is known in "The Biz" as a hard sell. Find Sam at: Twitter: @samhumphries Web: SAM HUMPHRIES DOT COM, Find out where to buy Sacrifice at AZTECS FOREVER |

This week, Brandon tells a story about being the best man at a wedding after meeting the groom the same day and James comes to the realization that his "type" is "less traditionally feminine lesbian," which is probably unrelated to watching 32 episodes of Cougar Town in 48 hours. In terms of comics they liked, it's a Spider Week for the boys, who wrap things up with a discussion of continuity and the silliness of caring too much about it. Plus, James messes up and adds a "Paul" to Kano's name again, because apparently he's combined him with the actor from There Will Be Blood, Paul Dano. He awaits your jeers. |

This week, the boys took a different approach to podcasting and recorded in the same room as each other on the same microphone, all in the name of a night of alcohol, pulled pork and the Golden Globes. After running through the things they've been enjoying recently and James making several mistakes with names, they settled down to discussions about illegal downloading and the risks of Kickstarter. To clarify James' mistakes:
Tune in next week, when James won't be an idiot and have to list all of his stupid errors in the episode description when doing the editing! |

In this week's episode, the boys talk about controversial or unpopular opinions about pop culture that they have, from Indiana Jones to Harry Potter. Plus, James tries not to end up on any watch lists. |
