IN THIS WEEK'S GWEEK PODCAST!

 

 

DEAN has been presenting women with photos of themselves, with mustaches drawn on.

 

MAGGIE is investigating the production of science videos for Boing Boing.

 

DEAN paid a woman a dollar to read an article to him. (Note: At this early point in the podcast, Dean clinched the win for this week's episode.  Congratulations, Dean.)

 

I describe who R.A. Dickey is, and why he is AWESOME (I am a fan).

 

What cartoonist had his (and his family's) life threatened, fled, and then got a 35-year gig?

 

MARK and I discuss THE BEST BOOK EVER:  Fantagraphics' DONALD DUCK:  LOST IN THE ANDES by CARL BARKS.

 

MARK describes the worst prequel to "Home Alone" imaginable.

 

and MUCH, MUCH, MUCH MUCH (it's over an hour!) MORE!

ALSO: I'm not sure why, but I've heard lots of podcasts begging their listeners to rate it in the iTunes Store, so I'm going to beg too:  If you like Gweek, PLEASE RATE IT IN THE ITUNES STORE!

 

 

Once again, I offer a public thanks to those who have privately and anonymously contributed to the TIP JAR, without even giving me the chance to send a signed sketch in return.  Much appreciated.

A new installment of Tom Gammill's instructive series of videos on cartooning.  Don't miss this episode's SURPRISE ENDING!

 

 

I'm looking forward to the Doozies comic with Dean Doozie standing over Tom Gammill's grave with a single, comically large tear on his cheek.

Lucky Ducky, in "EXPATRIATE GAMES," featuring Hollingsworth Hound, Who Must Decide Where to Send His Money on Vacation.

From "Ermal," in the gocomics comments:

 

"OK, I followed the chart, but now what do I do with all this frothy mixture?"

 

Especially funny with Tintin saying it…

There is no Tom the Dancing Bug on Boing Boing today — in fact, there's no Boing Boing at all today — in protest of SOPA/PIPA legislation.

 

Check back tomorrow.
