longstanding gems

Nothing rare or fancy here. Just beautiful gems on a rainy night.
And a Too Short song because he is sometimes my favorite rapper.

Eleanor #90 (Episode Rigby)


drawing by Z Behl made special for our Eleanor Rigby episode.


I should say, in our defense, we had so much fun doing this. I thought maybe this would drive us crazy, it's kind of like having a song stuck in your head all day, but somewhere during the second hour we entered a trance-of-sort, meditating on loneliness, all the the lonely people, and all the places they may come from.

Non-Racist Black Skinhead Panthro



The homie Tone Tank is at it again. This is his second series of handmade toys (you may remember BEAST HOMBRE)

TONE TANK:
“I always knew Panthro was a black man, but recently I was watching the Thundercats as a grown up and it hit me that he was a Skinhead. He has the shaved head. He has the suspenders. He is a black Skinhead.”

“I decided a ‘Skinhead Panthro’ needed to exist, and I wanted one for myself, so I made 24 of them out of resin and vacuum plastic.”


It even comes with its own theme music courtesy of Scott Thorough
