After a great convention weekend the Awesome Pod crew get together to shoot the breeze and talk some comics. With no guest this week the conversation goes far and wide, with talk of Leamington Comic Con 2017, Justice League, Webcomics, some amazing books are recommended and there is another round of the agony aunt segment 'Ask Aunty Tony'.

This week Jamie Smart, a pod favourite creator and the man behind Moose Kid Comics joins the gang to talk about how the yearly free-for-everyone kids comic came to be, what it was like editing so many amazing creators, the world of kids comic publishing, his angry comic creating phase and so much more! The conversation dances in all directions as convention stories are told, gallows humour in kids comics are discussed and artists talk the adventures of Periscoping your work. Also theres some Bristol Comics Expo talk, dirty artist Chat Roulette, Vince steps up his segway game, Tony talks about pranks he's played on his workmates and Dan IS the block.
