Another Comics.FM episode where JP talks radio and comics with one of his colleagues in the business.
Today Scorgie and JP Black talk about Ice Cream Man from Image Comics. Written by W. Maxwell Prince and Art by Chris O’Halloran and Martín Morazzo. While they reference the first issue, each comic is a one-off tale of weird plots and characters with a side of two scoops of ice cream. The Ice Cream Man is ready to serve with a snap of his fingers, lickety split!
Scorgie and JP talk about the influences that got them both into radio. Scorgie mentions the VH1 Show Free Radio with Lance Krall and Jimmy Fallon's "And We're Back" radio skits on SNL. JP talks about Steve Dahl and Johnny B, then Howard Stern, and movies like Airheads that made radio seem like the coolest job ever. They get into the "theater of the mind" element that radio always had and always will be.
JP discusses how radio gives that same illusion like pro wrestling or politics of what is real and what is not. Lesson to the kids - say yes! It just may pay off as JP talks about when he was asked to be an emcee for the Emma Crawford Coffin Races in Manitou Springs. Maybe you'll even get to meet a famous heavy metal drummer! Check our Scorgie on 98.1 KKFM Weekends and all around Southern Colorado at live events!
