On this episode of Discovering615, host ThackAttack615 sits down with Chris Dyer, the passionate owner of Towne Square Records & Comics in Gallatin, TN. From discovering his dad’s comic book collection as a teen to curating one of the coolest vinyl and comic book stores in Tennessee, Chris shares how his love for retro culture became a business — and a way to connect with the community.
Chris dives into how comic books are graded, what collectors can expect, and shares stories about rare and unusual finds in both comics and records. He also talks about organizing the Gallatin Comic Con and hosting fan-favorite guests like Henry Winkler (The Fonz), Donnie Most (Ralph), and Anson Williams (Potsy) from Happy Days.
Whether you're a collector, comic fan, vinyl lover, or just curious about Gallatin’s growing pop culture scene — this episode is for you.
