Onstad Interview (Now with more Malki !)

edited January 2009 in Social Entropy++
Because I know that there are some Achewood fans up ins I thought I would share a link to an interview with Mr. Onstad. The interview was conducted by Jesse Thorn, host of the Radio Show/Podcast "The Sound of Young America", which is one of my favorite podcasts. If you like his style, I definitely recommend looking for his podcast feed in iTunes or Zune or whatever you use.

Here is a link to a post on Jesse's forum where he has linked to the audio for the interview:
http://maximumfun.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3002

P.S. Later this week I believe he will be putting up an interview with David Malki, of Wundermark, if that is a thing that people like.



edit: Jesse stopped by, so I am editing this in to the OP:
Hi! I'm Jesse. Evander posted a link to my show (thanks Evander).

Here is the interview with Chris. He was a really nice guy, and genuinely vexed at how difficult it has been to get stuff out when he's been touring &c.

Here is the interview with David Malki !, creator of Wonderark. He was/is also very nice and interesting and insightful and so on.

Sincerely,
Jesse
A Real Public Radio Host

    I got to talk to Chris Onstad on the phoooone

    he was in Austin (where my girl goes to school) and she waited in line three hours and I got to talk to him

    I'd just passed a kidney stone and he gave me advice on how to eat to avoid them

    it has a "work safe" setting that is just grey and all that registered members can switch to.



    Personally, though, I like bright colors.

    Achewood is excellent. What is not excellent is a fuckton of merch I ordered never arriving.

    Only the GOF book arrived which was ordered from amazon anyway, and a few badges. Several books and tshirts probably never to arrive, fuckin' lame.

    I read this at first with the understanding that Skull Man had a daughter. Then I actually read it correctly and I'm still shocked that Skull Man could manage to get a special lady.

    Some of those other Crazy Pete strips are so excellent. Like the one where he asks for book writing advice.

    The amount of time Onstad is taking to get a strip out is getting kind of ridiculous at this point. I almost feel like the perfect ending point would have just been Beef and Molly's wedding. Maybe continue it just through GOF style books from then on without a web component.
