GAR! 176: Secret Origins

Download the MP3 here!

This week’s episode of The GAR! Podcast includes discussion of Glenn’s recent trip to South Jersey; the awesome Secret Origins Comics & More; various local restaurants including Red Hot & Blue, the Moon Dog Grill, the Fat Tomato Italian Bistro, and The Pub; listener feedback; the new Berlin Farmers Market; half-cover discount comics; Glenn’s retconned comic book addiction secret origin; the unrecorded GAR! 175.5 episode; the obsessive waiter from Hell; the spite flight; and the Camden Comic Con.

The GAR! Podcast is the Glenn Walker and Ray Cornwall weekly podcast where they talk unrehearsed about whatever happens to come to mind. It’s an audio-zine for your mind, a nerd exploration of a nerd world, coming to you from the suburbs of New Jersey and the sunny lakes of Florida via Skype.
