Comically Pedantic

Listener discretion advised. This episode involves talks of child pornography.

We are finally back to talk about the indie comic Anne Bonnie and the very problematic creator Tim Yates. I, unfortunately, knew Time Yates before his arrest and learned a great deal about who he is and why this comic nearly disappeared overnight. We try to keep the conversation from getting to heavy, but it is unfortunately hard to do with the given subject.
Along the way we discuss the failings of creators like Dan Harmon (creator of Rick and Morty and Community) and Joss Whedon (creator of Buffy, Firefly, and director of The Avengers) as well as the ways an apology can work.

I'm joined by Kay Despina to talk about these issues so please check out her site Acceptance Revolution for stories on acceptance of sexual orientation, gender identity, and mental illness.
