With Drawn & Quarterly publishing new editions of King-Cat Classix (https://bookshop.org/a/4669/978177046..., Map of My Heart (https://bookshop.org/a/4669/978177046..., and Perfect Example (https://bookshop.org/a/4669/978177046..., what better time for John Porcellino (  / johnporcellino  ) to return to the podcast? We talk about how King-Cat Comics & Stories (https://www.spitandahalf.com/product-...) has evolved over the ~30 years (!) he's been making it, how the refinement of his art and storytelling mirrors the battle of intuition vs. OCD, and how his newest comics (even those written before 2020) reflect life during the pandemic. We get into how Buddhism has helped him cope with life and aging, his lurking concern that he has an expiration date, what he wants to accomplish before then, and what it means to publish issue #80 (https://www.spitandahalf.com/product/...) and to look at reaching #100. We also discuss the joyfully awful band Flipper and what it's like being Flipper for aspiring storytellers, the example Lynda Barry set for him, the influence John has had on my stories in recent years, his joy at seeing his name drawn by Robert Crumb, and why his new dog Arlo is A Good Boy even when he barks during podcasts.
