  ICHI! and Crumple Explained: Why Kyle Lawrence Wrote These Stories

  Aug 17, 202635 minS18

  Author and YouTuber Kyle Lawrence joins Two Geeks Talking to unpack how he thinks about story across prose, comics, manga, and film, and why “tricking” the reader is really about guiding them through an emotional experience you’ve already mapped out. He digs into the making of ICHI! Number One Baseball Robot and Crumple, the craft challenges of having “too much freedom” in prose, and the specific feedback that actually moved the needle on his writing. We also get into the origin of his King Rex Comics YouTube channel @hailkingrex , why knowing comics history (including the unsung creators) deepens your love of the medium, and how he navigates metrics, and self‑promotion without shouting into the void. If you write, read, or obsess over stories in any format, this episode is a masterclass in staying curious while still finishing the work.

  On Set With Guillermo del Toro’s Team to His Own Comic Doris Doodle: Hasani Walker

  Aug 3, 202638 minS18

  Hasani Walker went from answering phones in a call centre to answering story notes in the animation industry, working with filmmakers like Guillermo del Toro along the way. A decade later, he’s taking everything he’s learned about character, performance, and visual storytelling and pouring it into his own project: Doris Doodle. Once a 1940s Hollywood cartoon star and now a washed‑up actress clawing her way back into relevance, Doris is his lens on fame, failure, and second chances. This conversation dives into how Hasani made the leap into animation, what he uses from studio life to build his own comic, and why Doris Doodle might be the most honest character he’s ever created based on real-life experience.

  Alex Schumacher returns to Two Geeks Talking to dissect how he and co-creator Aaron Cohen built Schticks & Stones—a smart, Jewish mystery comic that sits somewhere between Mel Brooks, Sherlock Holmes, and Clue. He breaks down the core engine of the series once you strip away the holiday hooks, how to stay “all the Jewish funny, none of the Jewish guilt” without leaning on clichés, and what Crime & Passover first issue taught him artstically when drawing the other holiday mysteries. You’ll also hear how Tales From The Cloakroom and Flash Gordon Adventures shaped his craft, the page layouts he relies on when a joke has to land, and why paying your success forward is non-negotiable in comics.

  Jul 6, 20261h 5mS18

  At 80, L.A. Lockehart decided to launch a whole new chapter, publishing her debut mystery novel The Garden Tender’s Cats after a lifetime as an award‑winning musician, actress, composer, and painter. In this conversation, she unpacks how character, setting, and “spaces with secrets” drive her approach to mystery, why habits from music and visual art shape the way she writes scenes, and what people get wrong about the genre. She also shares her take on AI and creativity, the first poem that sparked her artistic life, and why she’s still thinking in terms of future poetry collections and collaborative gallery shows instead of slowing down.
