Everything is Awesome

10 YEARS OF AWESOME! That's right, we've hit 10 years of Everything is Awesome, and we're doing what every other IP does when they hit major milestones: REBOOTING WITH A GENDER SWAP!Ok, not really, BUT it is fun that our guest this week, Taylor Kellar, is such a big Back to the Future fan, as it ties into a major conversation that Garrett Smith and I had back in the first two episodes of this very podcast. So, yes, Taylor and I do chat about the franchise, but we get into more than that because Taylor is more than "That Back to the Future Girl from Social Media".We chat about where Taylor got her start in acting, why she's thinking about moving to Los Angeles, and, of course, general pop culture.What better way to celebrate 10 years of Everything is Awesome than tangents with a new friend?SUPPORT TAYLOR KELLARInstagram | WebsiteTHE SHOWEverything is Awesome is produced by Starbird Media and edited by Kevin M.

Talking with Erin Stegeman feels like sitting down with someone you’ve known forever and immediately picking up where you left off. Erin is a writer, director, and performer who has spent years creating smart, scrappy parody work, and in this episode of Everything is Awesome, we spend a lot of time talking about what happens to creative projects long after you think you’ve moved on from them.We start in very familiar territory: parenting chaos, kids getting hurt in new and inventive ways, the weird anxiety spiral that comes from googling medical symptoms, and the general realization that once you have multiple kids, your house just becomes a series of controlled disasters. It’s loose, funny, and immediately settles into the kind of tone that defines this show.From there, the conversation shifts into Erin’s work, especially Once Upon a Time: The Rock Opera, and what it’s been like to see that project find new life a decade later. Erin talks candidly about how scrappy that era was, how much work went into it, and how hard it was for a long time to even revisit the project without focusing on everything she wished she’d done differently. Now, years later, there’s a sense of perspective and appreciation for what it was, how ridiculous it could be, and why it still resonates with people discovering it for the first time.We also dig into parody as a genre, how comedy changes over time, and why context matters when you look back at humor from the early days of social media. Erin and Kev talk about the difference between punching up and punching down, how certain styles of comedy were everywhere in the late 2000s, and why growing as a creator doesn’t mean pretending your past didn’t happen. It just means you’re not that person anymore.Later in the episode, we talk about Shame of Thrones, Erin’s Game of Thrones musical parody, how it evolved from a low-budget idea into something much bigger, and what it’s like dealing with IP holders who have very different reactions to parody. There are stories about Comic-Con runs, off-Broadway shows, lawyers calling, and the strange line between being embraced by a fandom and being told to change a font so lawyers don’t get involved.If you’re into parody, genre storytelling, creative growth, or just honest conversations about making things and surviving the process, this episode is a great listen. It’s funny, reflective, occasionally deep, and very much an Everything is Awesome conversation.SUPPORT ERIN STEGEMANInstagram | M.A.C.B.E.T.H (IG) | M.A.C.B.E.T.H (tickets) | Shame of Thrones | Save the Video Store | OUAT: The Rock OperaTHE SHOWEverything is Awesome is produced by Starbird Media and edited by Kevin M.

Talking with Craig Liggeons is like talking to the guy at the convention who has seen everything, read everything, and somehow remembers every lineup change and post-credit scene along the way. Craig is a Philadelphia pop culture personality, comic book expert, and host of Comic Book Gurus, a show that dives into comic book movies, comics themselves, and fan culture from a Philly perspective. In this episode of Everything is Awesome, we dig into comic books, the MCU, X-Men, Philadelphia sports heartbreak, and how fandom has changed over the last two decades.We kick things off by talking about being an Eagles fan, especially during postseason runs. There is a particular kind of sports trauma that Philadelphia fans carry, and Craig captures it perfectly. From there, we slide directly into the MCU and how Marvel has shifted since the end of the Infinity Saga. Craig has thoughts on the highs, the lows, and the “what do they even do now?” era Marvel finds itself in as it looks toward its next big crossover. One of the best parts of the conversation is hearing Craig talk about seeing X-Men (2000) in theaters for the first time, and how surreal it was to see a serious comic book movie with a real budget and real actors. For a lot of fans, that movie was the proof-of-concept that made the modern MCU possible.We also talk about Comic Book Gurus, how it started, and how Craig became known within the Preston & Steve orbit. There’s a charm in hearing how radio, comedy, and comic book culture intersect in Philadelphia, and how fandoms build community in unexpected ways. Craig is the kind of guest who brings strong opinions, deep history, and a storyteller’s brain, which makes the conversation move in every direction in the best way possible.If you’re into comic book culture, Marvel movies, X-Men nostalgia, Philadelphia sports, or the evolution of fandom from the 90s to today, this is a great episode to check out. It’s loose, it’s funny, it’s passionate, and it’s exactly the kind of geeked-out conversation that defines Everything is Awesome.Topics Mentioned:Marvel Cinematic UniverseX-MenComic Book GurusPreston & StevePhiladelphia EaglesComic book movies and fandomMCU post-Endgame eraPhilly pop cultureSUPPORT CRAIG LIGGEONSFacebook | Instagram | Twitter | Threads | Comic Book Gurus on YouTubeTHE SHOWEverything is Awesome is produced by Starbird Media and edited by Kevin M.

PIVOT!We'll be back next with our look ahead to 2026, featuring Mike DeAngelo, but we're both feeling a bit under the weather. So, we chat with a different Mike!Enter Michael Pickard—an award-winning author who got his start in writing in an unconventional way. From letters to his daughter to writing the perfect time travel story, Michael's story is that of a true independent creator.That independent spirit, as the title suggests, is what is at the heart of this conversation. SUPPORT MICHAEL PICKARDAmazon | Forward and Back (The Perfect Time Travel Story) | FacebookMichael Pickard blends his professional background in cutting-edge technology with a deep passion for the creative arts in his writing.

200 episodes. Man, that's something special. This is the first podcast I've done where we've hit that number. Happy Hour hit around 175 episodes or so before I shut it down, though I may have been part of The Stabcast for close to 200 episodes. Regardless... this is special, no matter how long it took to get to it.And just like we did for Everything is Awesome Episode 100, we're playing a game! This time, we head to a galaxy far, far away (in the distant past) with Star Wars: Edge of the Empire. Inspired by the Campaign podcast and using a modified version of the beginning adventure, I sat down with Mike DeAngelo, Jeff Stormer, and Taylor Kellar to run their little crew around the sands of Tatooine.SUPPORT MIKE DEANGELOTellest | Etsy | TwitchSUPPORT JEFF STORMERParty of One Podcast | BlueskySUPPORT TAYLOR KELLARTaylor Kellar | TikTokTHE SHOWEverything is Awesome is produced by Starbird Media and edited by Kevin M.

This is one of my absolute favorite episodes I've ever recorded. When I sit down and think about my favorite episodes (and, to be fair, every episode has a special place in my heart), they are usually on opposite sides of the spectrum. Our live shows, which I love, are either in a "Late Night" format or a panel from a convention. We have episodes like 100 (and next week's 200th episode) where we play games, and then episodes like our interview with Tonya Todd and now Brian Reveals: serious conversations about mental health and the state of the world.And I'm not an overly serious person... I like that Everything is Awesome is silly. It's here if you want to escape the real world. But these conversations that take a serious turn are special. We may not be escaping, but we are engaging. And that's what this episode felt it was really about from top to bottom.Engaging with your mental health. Making sure you're taking care of it. Making it a priority.Engaging with politics. Get informed and vote in every election, because the big one every 4 years isn't necessarily going to affect your day-to-day life. (That doesn't mean it's not important!)Engaging with your community. No matter where you sit when it comes to politics, most people in your community want the same thing: a safe place to live, raise their kids, have a roof over their heads, and three meals a day for their families. The media will have you believe we all hate each other for our beliefs, but the truth is, we have more in common than you might think. You just have to engage with your community to see the truth.We also talked about So You Want to Talk About Race by Ijeoma Oluo, a book I read in 2020 that was as informative as it was enlightening. I encourage you to pick it up from a local bookstore, your local library, or from the link I provided. However you can read it, read it.SUPPORT BRIAN REVEALSBrian Reveals Media | The Dynamite NetworkTHE SHOWEverything is Awesome is produced by Starbird Media and edited by Kevin M.

Let's talk about podcasting and how no one is an expert. Everything is Awesome is nearly 10 years old. I've been podcasting for nearly 19 years. Yet, an entire interview is missing. It happens to the best of us. None of us is perfect, and we should always be striving to learn from our failures."Failure is Success Training." ~ Kevin SmithIt's a short episode this week because of said failure above. We'll need to get them on the show proper in the future, but in the meantime, I need something for episode 198. With the help of an assistant, we compiled a summary of what Grim Philly is: both their tours and their podcast.Quick production update: we'll be getting back to weekly releases soon, though maybe not until 2026 (I honestly haven't sat down yet to see what we can do). We are also shifting back to our ORIGINAL (from like 10 years ago) release day: Wednesday. While I have all the best intentions of getting episodes edited and scheduled 3-7 days in advance, I do spin a lot of plates (which are in addition to my three kids and day job). Shifting back to Wednesday means that if I fall behind, I don't have to try and put something together over the weekend, which is when I'm at my busiest, and can use Monday and/or Tuesday to get this show posted.SUPPORT GRIM PHILLYGrim Philly Tours | Grim Philly PodcastTHE SHOWEverything is Awesome is produced by Starbird Media and edited by Kevin M.

BAM! We're back with another episode! Jordan Spector is a former multi-sport athlete who walked on to the football team at Temple University. After an injury cut his playing career short, he discovered his true passion for art. Since 2015, he has built a remarkable reputation for creating high-energy mixed-media sports artwork that captures the emotion and motion of the games we love. His work has been commissioned by pro athletes and major sports organizations alike.Jordan and Kev discuss "What it means 'being from' Philly", their thoughts on the City Connect jerseys, and Jordan's artistic journey.

Blows inside the podcast, kind of like we did to video game cartridges back in the '90s.It works! Everything is Awesome works! But, for how long? Are we back, back? Or a few before Kev's mental health tanks again.Folks, it's going to tank again, but I've set up some internal processes that will help keep this show on schedule. Now, for the good stuff:This week, Kev sits down with the multitalented Tonya Todd—author, actor, activist, and host of Banned Books Conversations—for a thoughtful (and occasionally hilarious) chat about what activism looks like in everyday life. From the fight against book bans to finding creative ways to speak up, Tonya shares how art and advocacy intersect. Of course, things also get delightfully off track when Kev’s mind is blown by the fact that Tonya spent some time in the same Pennsylvania area he did, and the two dive into a discussion about Kurt Russell as Santa in The Christmas Chronicles.Find TonyaTonya Todd’s Website | Tonya’s Books | Banned Books Conversations Podcast | Femme On Podcast And I Thought Ladies | 52 Love | Tonya on Instagram | Tonya on Facebook | Tonya on YouTube | Kev on Banned Books ConversationsListen, rate, and subscribe!

GO BIRDS.My intro and outro to this episode say it all. FanExpo 2025 was important to me for many reasons. It brought me back to Everything is Awesome, which has been with me through ALL my trauma and what I can only assume is the onset of my fragile mental health. This show makes me happy, and I need to be here more with it.I was also reminded about why we take shots, even if it is improbable to make them. Thanks for the reminder, Devan.On the panel, we talk about the Go Birds mentality: what it means, why it's so special, and why it travels so well. What other fandoms share that mentality?

WARNING: The audio for the panel was recorded differently because the cable I needed changed from years past. That said, I can't believe how well it turned out despite the way we recorded it.There's nothing like a live show, panel, or performance to get your creative juices flowing. And that's what This is Heavy: 40 Years of Back to the Future did for me. While I did panels at last year's FanExpo, I also worked a community table, which was wonderful but took so much energy out of me.During this panel, I was just floored by how many of you actually cared about what my friends and I had to say about a 40-year-old movie. Beyond that, working with Dan, Stephen, and Meghan from I Like to Movie Movie reminded me how much I like to do things with friends. I hope to do more of this, especially with this crew.This is a love fest on Back to the Future, I'm not sure what else to say. We touch on the legacy and why this film is still so important after 40 years, stand-out moments and aspects of the film, how we would cast this movie today, and much more.Find your Senators | Find your Congressman | Make 5 Calls | Support HEADstrong Foundation | Trevor Project | Support Black Lives MatterFind...I Like to Movie Movie on Apple Podcasts, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter @moviemoviecastKev on TikTok, BlueSky, Twitter, Instagram, Threads @ThatNerdyKev ThatNerdyKev.com | AwesomePodcast.com | MayorOfLevittown.com | Avatar State Radio | Get 'Em Next YearPlease support Everything is Awesome by leaving a 5-star review on iTunes.

Today is a conversation I had with Ben Beck LAST YEAR about Fan Expo Philadelphia 2024, but the heart of the conversation is timeless.

Quick Update from Kev about what's going on.

Ana Saia joins Kev for an engaging and thought-provoking conversation about social media’s evolution, cultural identity, and the art of storytelling. Kev kicks things off by marveling at the fact that podcasting is now a college class, leading to a discussion about generational differences between “Old Man Kev” and the next wave of creators.The two dive into the progression of social media, from MySpace and Twitter to TikTok, and the ways these platforms have shaped how we connect. Ana opens up about her experiences growing up as a white-presenting Hispanic, the challenges of proving her cultural background, and embracing the complexities of different Spanish dialects. Together, they discuss their journeys with learning Spanish, reclaiming cultural authenticity, and how “No Sabo” moments have taken on new meaning.Ana also shares how her cultural identity influences her work in acting and music and her love for emotional storytelling. They explore the heavy narratives often found in kids’ movies and discuss the creative challenges of transitioning from short-form to long-form content.Find your Senators | Find your Congressman | Make 5 Calls | Trevor Project | Support Black Lives MatterFind...Ana Saia on TikTok: @saianana | Instagram: @anasaiaofficial | YouTube: @saianana | The Reason, La RazónKev on Twitter, Instagram, Threads, TikTok @ThatNerdyKevThatNerdyKev.com | AwesomePodcast.com | MayorOfLevittown.com | Avatar State Radio | We'll Get 'Em Next YearSupport Everything is Awesome by leaving a 5-star review on iTunes.

This episode was meant to post back on July 1st, but ::gestures to the world:: is happening. This also meant that I totally forgot I scheduled a post about leaving podcasting for today; feel free to give that a read too. After listening to this episode and reading that post (which I wrote about a month ago), I realize that the impression I give is "I'M OUT FOREVER, BABY!" and that simply is not the case. Everything is Awesome may be done-ish forever (save for panels and/or special interviews), but I've already begun pre-pre-production on another audio project. It's both smaller and larger in scope than this show but offers a way for me to come back to podcasting in the future without having to worry about scheduling (which is huge for me). I will likely wait until I'm in the right headspace to start publishing that project, but once Everything is Awesome has run its course, I should have a complete season of that project wrapped and ready for publication (save for intros/outros/midrolls/whatever I decide to do with that).

Writer, podcaster, beard icon, and friend to dog-kind, Jason Tabrys, joins us this week for one hell of a conversation. This is our first show recorded during the COVID-19 pandemic and, as such, the conversation weaves in out and of that subject. While on the topic, Jason and Kev chat about the importance of supporting local businesses, especially local comic book stores and game stores. When trying to avoid the quarantine subject, many of a nerd subject comes up—the Everything is Awesome staples (Kevin Smith, Batman, and Kev crying during The Muppets)  are touched on while Jason lets us know what, aside from his loved ones, he would grab in the event of a fire. Jason is also starting a baseball podcast, he shares his love of comedy and late-night, as well as Hudson Hawk. Looking at the clock, Jason and Kev hold off on any Star Wars chatter for this conversation.

Well... 2019 was something, huh? I guess not much... we only posted a few episodes. It was a pretty great year when it comes to the non-podcasting / creative side of things (but, that allowed my mental health to heal). There were definitely some setbacks, but I let most of them only effect this show and my own personal output. In 2020, we'll be getting caught up by posting 2-3 episodes a week until June-ish. We'll also be getting After Party of One caught up in January of 2020 and back to it's normal monthly schedule by March. The end of 2019 saw some sadness too—Chris Cotton, a Philadelphia based comedian, passed away. He is survived by family, including his wife and unborn child.

2018 was something, huh? I sit down with my frequent co-host on Live shows, the creator of Tellest, and my best friend, Mike DeAngelo, to talk about what we really liked about 2018 and what we're looking forward to in 2019.

He is the author of the Tellest series of fantasy novels and novellas, where imagination goes to play, and the world is in your hands.

So often it's me talking about or writing about pop-culture/covering conventions.

As we start the trek towards our next 150 episodes, we sit down for a good ol' fashion long-form conversation with the designer of Star Crossed, Alex Roberts! We chat about old school radio and podcasting vs. the current podcasting methods and Alex gives me a brief history of Canada before we chat about her origin into podcasting and game design. ABOUT STAR CROSSED The excitement, tension, and heartbreak of romance! In Star Crossed, you'll craft characters who are powerfully attracted to each other but have a compelling reason not to act on their feelings. Some of the things you'll want your character to do are going to increase that attraction - and when that happens, you are going to pull a brick out from an increasingly shaky tower and place it on the top. If the tower falls, your characters act on their feelings! Will your love be doomed, triumphant, or something in-between? Find out at Star Crossed!

One hundred and FIFTY episodes. That number will always be way more impressive to me than the 11.5 years I've been podcasting. Shout out to James D'Amato for asking me what I was planning on doing for 150—it got me thinking and I really liked playing Jeff Stormer's Mission: Accomplished! for episode 100, that I wanted to visit another tabletop role-playing game. At PAX Unplugged 2018, in Philadelphia, I sat down with Ben Wallis from the Pod of Love podcast to play Alex Robert's Star Crossed. This game is not just crazy fun, it's incredibly beautiful. I don't know if it gets sillier than playing this game as Eddie Brock and Venom, but I'll be damned if it wasn't an incredible love story. Listen to see what happens with these crazy kids.
