I created a short-lived internet cartoon series called "The Adventures of Xylus and Dexter", where my two boys are superheroes in outer space, because why not?

It gained mild popularity and it even landed me a chance to make an animated pilot starring Jeffrey Tambor (Arrested Development, Transparent) and Chris Hardwick (Nerdist, @Midnight) for the series "The Radio Adventures of Dr. Floyd" by Grant Baciocco

This was all before YouTube, so I had to learn how to make a website to put the cartoons online. That website helped me get a job in web development. After that, I spent years working on websites and software.

Then one day I realized that wasn't what I started out to do.

You can listen to what I'm trying to do now on my new audio series - American Bandito

I just started the new season of my art podcast and I talk with a person who used to travel with the comic-con circuit and now after it shut down started making his own bootleg action figures! You can listen to the episode on my website https://www.tomrayswebsite.com/2020/09/scott-pyburn-from-comic-art-to-making.html

Question for you. How many people here have a podcast? Or know someone that does a podcast?

Ok, I guess I meant two questions :)

Let me know!

So during the offseason of my artist podcast American Bandito, I started a new show called the "American Bandito Pop-Culture Roadshow".

I take a look at some of the items I've collected over the years that range from the '70s to early 2000s and try to learn something about them and why I get them in the first place :)

Hey there!

Did you know that I have a podcast that is about me trying to become a full-time artist? It's called American Bandito.

This week I talked to a guy named Scott Pyburn who decided to join the Comic-Con circuit and see what happens.

You should totally check it out and tell me what you think of it :)
