    Fireside Chats: All Good Things…

    Fireside Chats: All Good Things…

    Here we are dearest Firesiders… It’s with a heavy heart I write this. The time has come to say goodbye. We have been making this show for almost a decade and it has given us all the best memories anyone could ask for. From the places we have gone to the people, we have met- all because of our mutual love of comic books. Join the guys for part one of a special two-part issue where Mendte, Mashko, Features, Baby Huey, and Mr. Maurer reminisce about everything that made this show so special to us. From how we have grown, to what we regret, the guys lay it all out there and try their best to explain how we came to this decision. Most of all though we want to thank you! Seriously, thank you so much. You gave us one of the best chapters of our lives. It’s not over just yet though Fireside family. While we begin to close these curtains, know that it’s not over, and there is a lot more to come. Join us for a trip down memory lane, and tune in next week for where we go from here. Goodbye from Fireside.

Don’t support known abusers

Nicholas Brendon is a perpetrator of domestic violence. He has been arrested numerous times for despicable behavior. He continues to scam fans out of money to support his lifestyle of addiction, abuse, and violence. He refuses to get help. The only way to get him to wake up, seek help, and stop abusing people is to pay no attention to him. Stop booking him on Podcasts. Stop booking him at conventions. Stop treating him as if he is Xander Harris from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. He is not that man he doesn’t deserve to use that name. He is a criminal and he is the big bad Buffy and the Scooby‘s fight so hard against. If you take the time to read any of his arrest reports you will see how truly awful his behavior is as of late. I am so sad that you chose to book him on your show when he is so unwell
