Happy Anniversary, we celebrate our 1 year birthday. Franco is back from vacation including a visit to the Magic Kingdom thanks to the generosity of a listener. Franco is also obsessed with Star Trek 6, and lets us know.Art has circus stories, and his better half Rose joins the show, (because she and the podcast share the same birthday) but her matter anti matter converter must've been on the fritz, because she sounds like a robot for most of the show.Yoko talks about the fierst time he was on Chicago television, on the kids show Bozo's Circus, and under duress remebers a strange clown taking him on a special private treasure hunt

This is an audio diary of Franco's trip to Chicago for the Wizard World Chicago Comic-Con. The podcast travels back and forth, from the streets of Rosemont, IL to the Blue Line L train stops in the city, to Bogarts Cafe at the local Muvico theater where our heroes dined and watched RISE OF THE PLANET OF THE APES (Spoilers) , to the Hyatt hotel sunday night, and finally back home on Skype for a review of the week.NOTE-If you still haven't seen the new APES moive, you may want to skip the first 14:05 of the show.

It's always a gamble when Artie amps up. Given the release of Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes, we were due for an episode of Ape Talk, and here we are. Plus thoughts on the new Superman film's choice for Perry White. Plus a take on Mr. Peadody and Sherman we'd like to see happen.

The title says it all. A very weary Art Franco & Yoko Chips try toput into words all of their adventures at this year's San Diego Comic-Con.

That's when Angry Yoko Chips shuts the big guy down!

The Flashy artist swaps stroies with Art & Franco, talking about the DC NU , his reality show beast legends and more!
