Finding The Story (Guest: Kevin Mellon)

Episode 170 – Finding the Story (with Kevin Mellon) In this episode, I’m joined by Kevin Mellon — director of Marvel/Hulu’s Hit Monkey and longtime comic book creator — for a conversation that wastes no time getting started. We dive into the differences between writers and artists in comics, and how those roles parallel directors and producers in television. Kevin shares his thoughts on AI as a creative tool, why Kansas City BBQ is unmatched, and how our work styles surprisingly line up. Along the way, we geek out over toys and vinyl figures, and even get an unexpected visit from a special guest. Want to know who? You’ll have to listen to find out. This one felt less like an interview and more like two friends talking shop—and I think you’ll feel that too.   If you want to see the video version it will be available on YouTube on 10/2/25 https://www.youtube.com/@IYGADAP    Find more on todays guest here: https://kevinmellon.rocks/    ======================== Podcast Networks:   Zeo to Hero Podcast Network: https://zeotohero.com/    3 Ranger Bros Studios: https://linktr.ee/the3rangerbrosstudios     ======================== Merch! https://iygadapshop.etsy.com/       Stickers By Stasha: https://linktr.ee/stickersbystasha       ==========================================   If You Give A Dad A YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@IfYouGiveADadAYoutubeCha-uw7zm     If You Give A Dad A Cosplay: https://www.youtube.com/@IfyougiveadadaCosplay-nl9hc   ========================= musical credits for show:     Intro theme sampled from: https://pixabay.com/music    (find whole song there)         Outro music by: D.Cure Produced by: tunnA Beatz If you enjoy his music, be sure to check out his website as well! www.dcurehiphop.com        ===========================     Linktree to follow me: http://linktr.ee/Giveadadapodcast
