As you may have heard on Episode 72, our matter of SDCC business was talking with writer/director Teddy Cecil. Following our interview with Teddy, we hit the convention floor!

We can't thank San Diego Comic-Con enough for allowing us to come and do a live show and be able to have these incredible experiences in San Diego. Everybody at SDCC treats us incredibly well and really makes us feel like family.
