Nate Beaty

In this episode we had the pleasure of chatting with cartoonist and man of many talents, Nate Beaty, in his apartment as he prepared a homemade piñata for an upcoming birthday party (happy belated birthday Nate!). Nate talked about how he got into drawing and making comics, even showing us what might have been the first comic he ever made, and shared with us some of his influences and some insights about his process.

A big thanks to Emporium Arcade Bar for sponsoring this episode — they’ve got tons of awesome classic games, and even Twilight Zone pinball!
