With Branwyn Bigglestone. Ian and David travel down to the Emerald City Comicon in Seattle, USA where they are joined by Branwyn Bigglestone, editor for Image Comics and friend of the show – also social networking superwoman. Branwyn, Ian and Dave discuss Branwyn’s essential American-ness; her outstanding devotion to charitable causes: first, she cured AIDS, then, cancer and now the homeless youth problem with her month-long sweets fast, which raised money for At the Crossroads as part of their I Think I Can 2012 campaign; it turns out Dave is more of a gym rat than Branwyn; they vie for the punk rock crown (Branwyn is the winner); talk about the good old days when the kids read fanzines and rock bands had time for such nonsense; and David reveals his fantastic tattoo design for Branwyn. Somehow, despite some ill-considered promises on the last show, Dave’s new haircut was never mentioned.
Here’s some photos from the recording session:
Branwyn in her lovely matching gold and black Adidas track suit. You can’t see them, but her shoes were gold and black as well. We demand the haute-iest couture on Sneaky Dragon.
Ian still looking fresh on Day 2 of convention life:
Ian and Branwyn in the Sneaky Dragon mobile recording studio and my hotel room. This meant I had to be extra neat!
The set up with our mixer and laptop just out of view on hotel room suitcase stand as impromptu mixer desk (with Branwyn’s prospective unicorn leaping a rainbow tattoo – before Branwyn’s editorial changes.)
Well, that’s all the pictures. Our thanks to Branwyn for coming on the show!
