Columbus Part 1: CXC

Robert Boyd

Welcome to The Great God Pan's first podcast. Please excuse my learning curve. In this episode, I take a trip to Columbus, Ohio, to experience the first-ever Cartoon Crossroads Columbus (aka CXC) festival.

  1. Huzzah, Robert! Congrats on the new podcast. I enjoyed listening to it this afternoon. You're knowledge and enthusiasm about comics is evident. I look forward to more. (And thanks for the mention and link -- it is inspiring me to dust off my own Yeti soon....)

    1. Thanks Brian. Yes, please--more Spill Some Stuff. I am still a rank amateur with this medium, but I am already thinking of ways to improve my podcasts.
