Graphic Policy Radio

Elana deftly hosts this show with knowledgeable guests, and as a listener i get my comics fix and feel my brain grow :)

This podcast is so stimulating and the hosts are so insightful and well informed, that you would assume that it’s nationally acclaimed and university funded. Each episode is deeply thought-provoking, and does an amazing job at reframing things you quietly love (or have never heard of) as impactful cultural artifacts that actually matter. Everyone involved seems so thoughtfully brilliant and Breakfast Club cool in a way that somehow gives you hope for the future of society.

Graphic Policy radio is where you must go for all your in-depths comic book discussion, especially for people who know that comics have been political since at least the first time Captain America punched Hitler in the face. Host Elana Levin guides listeners and guests through topics ranging from representation in comics, writing and illustration humor, and why Jack Kirby's influence on the medium might still be UNDERrated. This is good stuff. Listen to it.

This has started to become one of my favorite podcasts, combining policy talk and nerdy comic book talk. Guests like Spencer Ackerman and Steven Attewell always make it worth while. only complaint: audio quality can be off and sometimes drops in and out a little, maybe because they’re using skype or google. Also when statements end sometimes there’s a few seconds of silence before they realize a point is over and someone talks again…maybe edit those empty spaces out a bit more if they can? Otherwise keep up the great work!
