Hal-Con

Episode 208 – New Friend Alysin (@nova_fur) and a Final TWD Recap

We meet lots of great people at Hal-Con each year, and this year, while waiting in line for an autograph, we were lucky enough to meet the very talented and creative Alisyn, a.k.a., Nova Fur! We made a plan to catch up in a few weeks and that’s exactly what we did!

We also reconnect with Jennifer Lambe for one last time in 2022 to bid farewell to The Walking Dead. Sort of.

Happy holidays and thanks for listening!
