KEVIN SMITH.
That is all.
Who am I kidding? That is not all.
I was the guest for the 1/20/14 Fat Man on Batman podcast—first of the new year, first of the year of Bill’s 100th birthday.
Though Kevin prefers in-studio interviews, we have tried and failed for months to be in the same city at the same time; given the time-sensitive nature of lobbying Google about my idea for the 2/8/14 doodle, Kevin for the first time recorded over Skype.
We had the video on for only a moment before shutting it off to improve sound quality. In that one moment, I did not look good:
Apparently, kibitzing with Kevin about one’s book does wonders for one’s Amazon rank (screen shot from a few hours after the podcast went online):
That is all.

(Before the show, it was six figures.)
And, if one of the comments can be taken as omen, it could also be good for one’s nonexistent film career:
“This has to be a film. Starring and directed by Ben Affleck. Guaranteed Oscar gold.”

People seemed to like the podcast.
Thank you again, Kevin (and Meg, Will, and Ashley). I look forward to seeing you soon...

Listen to the to the Podcast. I knew that Bill had a hand of creative role in the beginning, but this man did so much to create one of American icon. Yet never get credit for it. It brings a tear to my eye. Now I want to get your book. If you in San Francisco area for the documentary I would gladly volunteer my time with production work. I'll do anything for Bill!
I enjoyed the podcast too. It was the first time I listened to a Fatman podcast.
Here's hoping the documentary gets made and does well. :)
Shame you can't find this podcast any more :(
