THE DOCUMENTARY IS FINALLY GETTING A RELEASE!
Hilariously though, it’s getting distributed on the EXACT SAME DAY as the streaming launch of ‘Superman’. What are the odds? TWO movies about comic book characters, with the name “SUPERMAN” in the title, getting launched on the same day!
This was a huge labor of love, interviewing creators, business owners, and fans. I loved this documentary, and I hope you’ll give it a watch (after you catch some of this conversation I recorded with Wes of course…) Continue reading “‘Shopping for Superman’ Director Interview – Wes Eastin on Comic Book Shops and Silly Super Heroes”

I brought on my friend Shannon Morse to chat about best practices for setting up a new computer, protecting your network, and how to get started in cyber security. Continue reading “Did I Overreact to Malware on a Mini PC? Interview with Shannon Morse (Security Expert)”
