#053 - We're Mean and Andy Kirby Is Nice

 
Titling this episode was a very delicate process. We were presented with so many options, some compliments of our special guest Andy Kirby, and some generated out of our own fetid mind-swamps. Go check out Andy Kirby on the Marvel 616 podcast, follow them on Twitter and Facebook! They're cool guys, with cleaner vocabularies than Austin's was when he was in Kindergarten. Please read our own webcomic, which now has the ability for you to comment and be nice to us! Go to Twitter, it is waiting. Email hideousenergy@gmail.com and the circle will be complete. Facebook really, seriously needs you to click like for us and Super Cute. Fanoff will never leave us, right? Tumblr needs love too. Comic Booked has so much stuff for you to enjoy, including us. Your day won't be over until you download us and subscribe to the show through iTunes!

Episode #053:
• Intro - Skunky and Kankwar. After that we regain our senses and discuss Discount Comic Book Services and only make a couple of outrageous claims about their services. Go check them out!
• Topic Thunder - Image invades the digital world; Patton Oswalt hates DC and having fun with them (maybe?); a new Batman cartoon dares to be completely awful sounding; Marvel announces some new movie titles; and Dan Didio crushes the dreams of us ever reading a book called "The Crisis Crisis."
• Comic Peeps - We chat with Andy Kirby about his love for comics, and how and when he came to them. We only say weird or gross things a few times in this segment, so your family can probably listen. The rest though? Probably might need to screen those first.
• Vampires and Magicians - An attempt at an intro turned into us talking about vampire sex and their dead/undead physiology; also, magicians and books about them.
• Top 5 - Insult Book Titles - Suggested by fan Alex Warn! This one is his and David's fault.

David Hopkins and Austin Wilson have said a lot of gross things. Sometimes they record them, most of the time not. This time Andy Kirby joined in on the gross fun. This show runs 1:36:00. Go read the newest Super Cute comic, then subscribe to us through iTunes. Enter funny joke about subscribe versus prescribe here.

We Love Team-ups!

How do you know we love team-ups? Because we teamed-up with another podcast and did some special guest-hosting, and it is live and ready to be listened to. We talked with Andy Liegl and Daniel Fabrizio of the Comics Dispatch about a lot of things. The podcast is hosted over on Comic Attack.net, and is waiting for you to go there and have fun. What all did we talk about? How about people who were born on motorcycles; your easily obtainable superhero name; and mutually agreed upon dislike/hatred! It's fantastic and fun and filled with cussing. Go listen here, and then check out other Comics Dispatch episodes, and the rest of Comic Attack! They're our friends, so they're your friends too. Let's all be friends. Yes!!

We Get Interviewed!!

The most super-cute of pimps, Andy Kirby, interviewed the Hideous Energy boys over at the totally awesome Comic Booked podcast a week or so ago, and the interview is now live! Check it out to get a behind the scenes look at how ambitious we are (we aren't), how responsible we are (we're not), and hear a story about how Austin and David kissed one time (that...is actually true).

Check it out here!

And definitely check out the Comic Booked podcast network and specifically Andy's awesome podcast Marvel 616 Politics!

GeekWeek's Last Show

As we mentioned on the show a couple of times, we had the privilege to be asked to guest-host the last episode of the totally awesome GeekWeek podcast a week or so back. Those guys are awesome, and continue to do awesome things. Definitely take a listen to the older episodes and also check out The Comics Dispatch - another awesome podcast co-hosted by the guy we co-hosted with (it's really meta) named Andy Liegl.

You can listen to the show here.
