The PKD Black Box

Seeing that this episode will air on Christmas Eve, it’s only fitting that on today’s show we’re going to talk about “What The Dudes Want For Christmas.” I recently was a guest on the Legion of Dudes Christmas podcast (episode 70) , as we talked about some gift ideas for you, that special someone, or that uber-special geek in your life.

The LOD breaks it down:

The Dudes are back to spread some holiday cheer with special guest Shawn Pryor of the PKD Media Black Box Podcast. We talk all about the gifts we want, recommend and can’t have this Christmas. We also let everyone in on who has been naughty and who has been nice in the eyes of the LOD.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year!

I want to thank the Legion of Dudes for letting me post this episode on our site, and you can check out other episodes of the Legion of Dudes at www.hhwlod.com .

I really hope you enjoy this episode. Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays to everyone. Peace.

The PKD Black Box

On this weeks show I talk about artist Mike Norton’s upcoming comic “The Curse,” and then Donny Salvo of the Reality Wasted Podcast returns as we discuss what comics we’ve been reading. Donny tells you why Classic G.I. Joe (Vol. 6) is the best TPB ever, I somehow find a way to compare comics to the incredible MC Lyte, and we lightly debate on how an artist can kill a book you love in an instance.

Enjoy.

-Shawn aka Stan Leeroy.
