Between the Gutters Podcast

We're back with a change of pace! In this episode, we have a discussion with a couple of our fellow comics travelers, Phong and Eric. Phong and Eric are organizing the Bay Area's first Christian comic convention, which takes place next month. This was an opportunity for us to learn about what goes into organizing a show like this, but mostly it was a chance to talk to new friends about comics!Phong and Eric share their comic book origin stories, and how they got into comics in the first place. We discuss the broader topic of spiritual themes in comics we've read. Not necessarily Christian comics, but just comics with spiritual themes that gave us something to ponder, appreciate, or enjoy. It's a topic that was quite fun to discuss, and we could only scratch the surface of it.We apologize for the slight audio issues in this episode. Hopefully they weren't too disruptive. Please note that Eric joins the podcast about a half hour into the discussion.As Between the Gutters is a San Francisco-based podcast, we're always happy to support the local comics community in our own small ways.

We are still alive! You may already know that if you follow us on Instagram, or if you're one of the elite who subscribes to our YouTube channel. But now we are so back with a proper podcast episode. We're continuing our issue-by-issue discussion of Superman: Birthright. In this episode, we're breaking down issue seven, along with the usual tangents, some of which may be somewhat related to the comic at hand, and some of which are just our usual trademark random nonsense. We hope you are enlightened and entertained!We've posted a few YouTube videos of us discussing random comics-related stuff... Think of it like the bonus video podcasts for our patrons...
