From the podcast

Shawn and Steve share an interesting and important bond: a fascination with the ongoing phenomenon that is Garfield. As almost lifelong comic fans, they can both recognize the broad appeal The Garf had early in their lives that got them hooked and the gratitude they have for his role as an entry point as consumers and producers of comics. We spend time exploring the business acumen behind Jim Davis's creation and curation of the Garfield brand and trying to find a comparable character (or set of characters, you Minions). There's also talk about the nature of newspaper and web-based comics and how they've progressed as a medium.
