For our first episode, we're going to take a metaphorical journey to a little place called Achewood to hang out with a couple of fans -- or "chochachos", as they liked to be called -- and find out what makes Chris Onstad's webcomic Achewood such an incredible trip into the early days of Internet culture.
Cool Fact: Throughout its 15-year-run, Achewood has received recognition from a variety of different notable sources, including The Economist, The New Yorker, Small Press Expo (SPX), TIME magazine, and the Onion. THE ONION!
Not-So-Cool Fact: Being able to edit a little bit of audio in post doesn't make you a miracle worker. Yeah, when I said the audio quality would improve in future episodes, I wasn't talking about this one since, technically, it was recorded before the podcast even started. Again, apologies for the spotty sound quality in some parts and the background noises.
Not-So-Cool Fact #2: Future episodes are going to be 45-60 min at most and we will have an actual theme song next week
