Comic Books & Cold Ones is the codename for America’s dumb, highly inebriated, special podcast force. It’s purpose: Drink beers, talk $hit, relive 80s nostalgia. Yo, Beers!. Listen in as KMac and Yek along with their buddies JZ and Gempster conduct another Fantasty, Fantasy Draft. This time the classic 80s G.I. Joe cartoon. Drink along as we debate if Dr. Mindbender’s abs trump Lady Jaye’s pixie haircut, how nobody in the government paid attention to how accurate to reality Cobra’s schemes were, & why KMac was just the worst kid owning the USS Flagg Aircraft Carrier toy. As Cobra Commander always aid: “Listen or Perish, you Insolent Fools!”

Ever find yourself staring at your long boxes, wondering if anyone else cares about the third-string heroes and bizarre story arcs you secretly love? That's the exact feeling Comic Books and Cold Ones bottles up and turns into a weekly conversation. Hosts K-Mac and Yek operate on a simple, beautiful premise: grab whatever drink is chilling in the back of the fridge, crack open a comic, and start talking. The result is a deeply funny and oddly insightful dive into the corners of the comic book universe most people gloss over. You won't just hear debates about Batman or Spider-Man here; you'll get passionate, beer-fueled dissections of the most obscure cold-themed villains or the practical logistics of caring for a giant teleporting dog like Lockjaw. The charm of this podcast lies in its authentic, meandering friendship-it feels less like a formal show and more like eavesdropping on two pals at a comic shop, armed with action figures and a severe lack of pretension. It's for anyone who believes the real magic isn't always in the iconic events, but in the weird, wonderful details that make these stories so endlessly compelling. So pull up a chair, grab your own cold one, and get ready for a uniquely personal tour through the panels.
