While Cullen was slowly melting away in Hot Portland, John and Jerry were chilling with milkshakes in Comfortable Kansas City at our weekly recording of the Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER!

We lead off the show talking about the #MakeMineMilkshakes story from over the weekend. People, apparently some of you need a reminder. You must use Twitter and Facebook and other social media for good things. Don’t be a troll. Don’t harass people. (Unless it is Nicholas Cage, in which we would like to remind him that the open invite to our podcast is still good.)

Next up is a look at two recent reads from John’s pile of new books. We start with CalExit from Black Mask Studios, which imagines a world where the major cities in California split from the state following an unpopular election. So ask yourself, is this real or fiction? Next is Dark Days: The Casting from DC Comics, which brings us one step closer to the Metal event this fall.

Finally, we reach the penultimate point of our AvX summer reading. Characters die, relationships are damaged, and the story just keeps on going. But we can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Or is it the lights of Kauffman Stadium?

We would love to hear your comments on the show. Let us know what you’ve been reading or watching this week. Contact us on our website, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or by email. We want to hear from you! As always, we are the Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER! and we hope you enjoy the show.
