Hey gang, have you checked out Comicon's YouTube? Interviews, previews, unboxing, and a bunch of episodes of @happyhourcc.bsky.social, where @cullenbunn.bsky.social, @antonstoryteller.bsky.social, @eriksamaya.bsky.social and I get rowdy and talk about monsters & cryptids, occasionally with guests.

*and @eriksamaya.bsky.social. Producer Erik is an on-screen talent now. He's our voice of reason. Sometimes.

The gang had so much fun with Godzilla, they went to the well again. Check out 'Happy Hour #14: Kaiju, Too' with @antonstoryteller.bsky.social, @cullenbunn.bsky.social, and @saintamish.bsky.social

The preview pages of this 90s inspired cocktail book by @henrybarajas.bsky.social are legit. Pre-orders are open now.

We had so much fun with The King of Monsters on Happy Hour #13 that we made a sequel! Happy Hour #14 will be posted soon. In the mean time, @cullenbunn.bsky.social has a new episode of (Non)Horror trivia on his channel, featuring... Godzilla!

Show prep on a Sunday.

What gets me through the day is knowing I'm helping people tell their stories. Bonus is that I get work with others who are just as passionate about getting the word out. Takes up a huge amount of real estate in my heart and puts more value in my life than anyone will ever know.

Good Grief! Vol. 2. -- A Charlie Brown Christmas & Bon Voyage Charlie Brown. @eriksamaya.bsky.social recalls a scene from Omaha Beach, @saintamish.bsky.social's knowledge of the Peanuts gang continues to impress, and @antonstoryteller.bsky.social goes all eldritch on Linus and Pigpen.

Peppermint Patty is the worst! @saintamish.bsky.social, @antonstoryteller.bsky.social, and @eriksamaya.bsky.social discuss their memories of 'A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving' and 'Race For Your Life, Charlie Brown,' two absolutely unhinged slices of Peanuts nostalgia on @happyhourcc.bsky.social.

Ookondoru, obv.

I am on this edition of Happy Hour, talking Godzilla with the gang and biding my time before revealing the King of All Monsters' greatest adversary.

We just finished shooting our Thanksgiving Special. Help us settle an argument real quick. @saintamish.bsky.social says 'rock snakes' are cryptids. @antonstoryteller.bsky.social says they exist. @eriksamaya.bsky.social says the two ideas aren't mutually exclusive. Who are you putting your money on?

Go-Go-Godzilla!!! Happy Hour #13 is up! @saintamish.bsky.social, @cullenbunn.bsky.social, @antonstoryteller.bsky.social, and producer @eriksamaya.bsky.social convene to discuss the King of All Monsters. Cullen calls King Kong a punk ass. Anton does science.

Mothman

Happy Birthday to @cullenbunn.bsky.social’s favorite cryptid. On this day in 1966, Mothman was first seen in Point Pleasant, WV.

Another episode of @happyhourcc.bsky.social in the can, featuring @cullenbunn.bsky.social, @antonstoryteller.bsky.social, and @eriksamaya.bsky.social. The King of Monsters looms large, as we discuss & debate our film rankings, the best Godzilla opponents, and probably something about Power Rangers?

4 quarters, in the style of US state quarters, but featuring Bigfoot, The Mothman, Chupacabra, and the Loch Ness Monster

Accurate.

Now if he can just figure out lighting...

We have a very special Halloween Happy Hour lined up for you all.

A very tiny chef’s knife lying on my palm

It’s spooky season. We’re filming a very special Halloween Happy Hour this weekend with the one of the biggest (literally and figuratively) guests we’ve ever hosted. Here’s a very small clue as to who it might be.

We had all kinds of plans to do a live version of Happy Hour from some dive bar in NYC this past weekend. We had great content that was happening in dive bars all weekend. But no one bothered to hit record. Trust us, though. It was bonkers. Not as bonkers as our next guest, though. Stay tuned.

Also, @saintamish.bsky.social is a shitty bar photographer.

It’s always a fun night out when @melissameszaros.bsky.social throws a party. #NYCC23 @eriksamaya.bsky.social @antonstoryteller.bsky.social @saintamish.bsky.social

It's true. We have some really fun stuff coming up. The next episode will have a huge connection to a beloved slasher franchise, and the one after will have a tenuous connection to a very different kind of beloved franchise. They will both be disturbing, but for very different reasons.

We demand a full report from @saintamish.bsky.social and @antonstoryteller.bsky.social on a future episode.

Or three.

He's always in the wings, feeding us notes when we can't (for some inexplicable reason that has nothing at all to do with alcohol) come up with the right word or reference, & he's the guy that cuts it all together in post. In return for his efforts, we demand that he buy us all a round in New York.

It's been a while since we recorded. Happy Hour Live at NYCC got waitlisted. We'll do something from NYC anyway, since 3/4 of the gang will be in one place at once. Hold up, you say? There are FOUR of you? There are. Producer @eriksamaya.bsky.social is one of the gang, even though you never see him.
