  4. Interview with Russell Nohelty about WannaCon 2020

    03/12/2020

    Interview with Russell Nohelty about WannaCon 2020

    Rob Interviews author Russell Nohelty from Wannabe Press about the virtual comic-con WannaCon that is happening this weekend. Last weekend, Emerald City Comic Con made the decision to cancel their convention that was to happen this weekend.  Since then, a bunch of conventions have started canceling which is not just bad for the fans and the companies behind the cons, but the artists and vendors that make their livings of the cons are hit especially hard.   Today's guest, Russell Nohelty, and his company, Wannabe Press, wanted to do something to fill the gap created by the loss of the show. Acting quickly, he created WannaCon, a virtual comic convention starting this Friday-Sunday, March 13th-15th, from 12 pm-4 pm Pacific Time featuring some of your favorite indie artists and creators.  Today I have a quick interview with Russell so he can let you know about this cool event.  As pop culture convention and comic fans, I cannot urge you enough to check out WannaCon and Support any artists you are interested in on its panels.  Be sure to follow him on Facebook at @WannabePress Check out WannaCon on: Twitch YouTube Facebook Be sure to use the hashtags #ecconline and #tourdecons Please be sure to rate us and review this episode wherever you listen to podcasts.  It really helps other people find us.    Follow this show on Facebook and Twitter at @tourdecons Follow our parent network on Twitter at @SMGPods Make sure to follow SMG on Facebook too at @SouthgateMediaGroup Learn more, subscribe, or contact Southgate Media Group at www.southgatemediagroup.com.   Check out our webpage at southgatemediagroup.com
