On today's episode, I have Emmy winning writer and comedian, Matt Koff!

Matt's new standup special, "Cat Man", comes out May 15th, and I had the opportunity to watch the special ahead of this episode and I absolutely loved it! From life as a cat guy, relationships, writing in television, and the worst party Matt has ever been to, this special is excellent!

We're back! FINALLY! And what better way to kick off the first episode of 2026 than with a LIVE episode from WonderCon! In perfect Con fashion, this episode has some audio issues. Our apologies. But the show must go on!

For this year's WonderCon show I decided to bring not only my dear friend and director of Demonetize, Alex Watson, but a few of our cast members as well! We were thrilled to have Matty Cardarople and Janine Hogan join us for this year's episode.

Our film Demonetize is about to have it's World Premiere at Panic Fest in Kansas City on April 12th, and we thought it would be great to showcase a little more of the film.

We talked about how the film and the cast came together, favorite moments on set, ghost hunting the set (which was haunted), letting the actors improvise, and Matty shows everybody why he's the best podcast guest ever.

Thank you for those of you the joined us in Anaheim! I'm always so grateful for those of you that stick around for our show. Thank you to WonderCon for having us back once again. A huge thanks to Alex, Matty, and Janine for taking the time to join me as well. And an extra special thanks to Vanella Drake and Chris Dotson who luckily filmed the episode so it wasn't entirely lost.

Enjoy the episode!

On today's episode I am LIVE from Los Angeles Comic Con with actor Sean Carrigan!

I have had the pleasure of getting to know Sean over the past year as he is one of the stars of our latest film, "Demonetize"! I have always been so intrigued by Sean's backstory of a professional boxer turned actor and invited him to join me for the live show to tell that story.

We talked about growing up on the East Coast and finding his way to boxing, striving to become a professional, and then making the move to chasing acting full time. We also talked about the roles that pushed him forward as an actor, getting the role on "The Young and the Restless", working on "American Vandal" and "All-American", lessons on "Ford v Ferrari", being star stuck ahead of an upcoming role, and so much more.

A huge Thank You to Sean Carrigan for taking the time to join me for this LIVE show. Sean also just became a Dad and brought the whole family to the convention! Make sure to follow Sean on all of the links at www.onthemicpodcast.com Thank you for having us, LA Comic Con!

While Rob, Mike and J.B. are all returning guests to the show, I felt that it was very fitting to celebrate my 10 Year anniversary show with three of the people who are a big part of SDCC to me and I was thrilled they were all able to be a part of this.

On today's episode I have comic book writers and filmmakers, Ben and Max Berkowitz!

I first came across the Berkowtiz Brothers almost a year ago when I briefly met them at a signing for their comic book, "The Writer". I'll be honest, I wasn't at the signing for them, but for another comic and decided to pick theirs up while I was there. As soon as I dove in I was hooked!

I talked with Max and Ben about growing up on the East Coast, their first introduction to comic books, getting involved with entertainment, earliest influences and the first comics they bought, developing "The Writer" and bringing Josh Gadd on board, pitching to Dark Horse Comics, their social marketing company Not A Billionaire, and so much more!

A huge Thank You to Max and Ben for taking the time to join me on the show. I've been wanting to have them on the show for a while now and was thrilled we were able to make it happen.
