Hang on, because in this very special episode of “Navel Gazing: The Valley Indy Podcast,” woefully unprepared reporter Eugene Driscoll talks podcasting and pop culture with John Amenta, co-host of “Pint O’ Comics,” one of the best Connecticut-based podcasts out there.
The two praise the people-powered nature of podcasts, Amenta recommends other Connecticut-based podcasts to which you should be listening, and he goes through the origin story of his own podcast.
In addition, the two commiserate over audio problems (lucky you will get to hear some actual audio problems during the broadcast!), growing old, Stranger Things 3, background noise, and the state of the Marvel cinematic universe.
Pint O’ Comics will be covering this weekend’s Terrificon at the Mohegan Sun, BTW.
