  1. EPISODE 7

    Episode 7: Power Pack #7

    Featuring the caped darkness of Cloak and the impossibly costumed Dagger. The dynamic duo join the kids, fresh off their first half-day at their new school, to try and do some superhero stuff. Since they are underage and in a new city and are still figuring out how to do this heroing thing, I am sure everything will turn out all right…..Hang on….getting handed a message….Nope...it all goes terribly wrong. But never fear, with beer in hand and some knowledge about fire retardants, Jeff and Rick are here to save the day.

  2. EPISODE 8

    Episode 8: Power Pack #8

    The final issue of the Dragon Man/Cloak and Dagger arc….Hooray! The children were left in a perilous position in the final pages of last issue. There is drugs, robots, fighting, and dancing. So many questions were asked, but probably none of them were like this. What beer will see the talkative twosome of Jeff and Rick through these pages? What crazy concepts and witty words will be dreamed up by the Power children? What silly songs will escape the confines of Jeff’s beard? Tune in to another exquisite episode of our family friendly podcast to find out.

  3. EPISODE 9

    Episode 9: Power Pack #9

    It is time for a new arc and a new adventure! The Power children are taken to the aquarium for a pleasant afternoon with their grandpa. Too bad there is a GIANT ALIEN SNAKE that spoils their good time. Man, I hate it when that happens. It reminds me of this one time, at work, I was having this fantastic nap, and my boss woke me up to tell me I was snoring too loud. Man, what a jerk…..what was I talking about?

    Episode 12: June Brigman Interview

    Our first interview!!! And it is with June Brigman!!! And it was sooooo cool!! Join us for this very special episode as we get the amazing opportunity to speak with the co-creator and first artist of Power Pack. June was kind enough to answer questions about how she got her start as an artist, her start into comics, and her start on Power Pack.  My daughter also helps us get June to open up about important questions, like what Jack’s voice sounds like, how long Julies rainbow lasts, how adorable is Katie, and the number of animals June lives with. Seriously, it is adorable. And why are we talking about cats again….this is like the second episode in a row. Well, it probably won’t continue Make sure you check out June’s gallery (http://www.artwanted.com/artist.cfm?ArtID=1321), her work on the daily comic strip Mary Worth (http://maryworthcomics.com/), and her upcoming comic book Captain Ginger (http://www.comicsahoy.com/series/captain-ginger).

  7. EPISODE 12

    Episode 13: Power Pack #12

    Don’t be sad, we are back with a brand new episode of Power Pack!! And, as Jeff so eloquently(?) sings, we are back in the sewers again!  On the hunt for their lost backpacks, the team of pre-teens head into the dark...and meet a mess of mutants!  That’s right, they are in the Morlock tunnels. Hopefully a couple of X-Men can get them out of this scrape. Along the way, we discuss depression and electricity….not at the same time. This episode, does not suck....but I may be biased! And if you think there are too many song parodies, blame the Irredeemable Shagg ( @onceuponageek ) for this fine mess. Additional shout outs include: Secret Wars and Beyond ( @Sean42AZ ) & ( @garaujo1), Titan up the Defense ( @ttwasteland_ ), and WMQ Comics ( @wmqcomics ).

  8. EPISODE 15

    Episode 15: Power Pack #13

    There comes a time, in every podcast’s life, where a guest host appears…..this is that time! Jeff and Rick are joined by one of the rowdy boys of the Secret Wars and Beyond podcast. Sean joins the dysfunctional duo to down some drinks and discuss some dugouts as Power Pack goes to Shea Stadium. They are out at the ballpark to take in a professional baseball game with their granpa….what trouble could they possibly get into…….I am being handed a note….this says that they could get into a lot of trouble. But never fear…with three hosts and a ton of silliness...and a slightly longer episode....you get the enjoyment of a grand slam home run. Thanks once again to Sean from Secret Wars and Beyond ( @Sean42AZ ) for joining us on this episode. Be sure to check out his wonderful podcasts. http://secretwars.libsyn.com/ And don’t forget support us on Patreon, https://www.patreon.com/JeffandRickPresent   Eighties Action by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3703-eighties-action License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Spacial Winds by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3883-spacial-winds License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Overworld by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/4189-overworld License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/
