Comic Conned

Published on: 13th October, 2021

This week the guys recap their trip to New York Comic Con! Ben notices his hat looks a little different in the cartoon version of our shows artwork and begins to investigate further. It turns out award-winning, Manchester-born artist, Luke McGarry took some liberties with the Liverpool FC logo. Cheeky banter? Or a Comic Con!!! You be the judge. Shout out Victor from Vantage Inhouse Productions! Anthony buys The Story of Jesus from Scott Kraynak and His/Hers Loki and Sylvie prints from the very talented, Brianna Garcia. Where were all the costumes?! Shout out to the Boba Fett/Boba Tea cosplay! Steve got all the EWAFs he wanted from Jason Edmiston's booth thanks to Ben. Shout out Jason Parnell and his amazing work! This week on Talking Snack the guys are joined by cousin Seanimal so they can properly bash Steve for not ranking his sandwiches and omitting the G.O.A.T. Breakfast sammy from his list (00:22:50). Shouts to the Little Freak from Comfortland! HBO isn't the only ones making declarations as Ben has named himself a Mondo Hunk in this weeks Entertainment News (00:57:45). Ant announces Funko Pop giveaway so stay tuned on Instagram for details. Congrats to Tyson Fury! The Gypsy King! Ted Lasso season finale review (01:02:39).

About the Podcast

Unofficial Intelligence
Internet news, pop-culture, and the quest to find the nuggets of truth you didn't know you needed.
Welcome to Unofficial Intelligence!

My name is Steve and each week my friends Ben and Anthony come by so that I can justify having more than one couch in my living room. We talk about the things that matter most in life, like who just got cast for a show based on a video game or why it’s better to order unsalted fries from McDonald's. Point is we hope all the random things we’ve learned through bizarre personal experiences or late night YouTube worm holes can help you in some way. Who knows maybe it’ll even give you something to talk about at parties whenever that’s a thing you can do again. We hope you enjoy our ramblings while you’re doing whatever it is that you’re doing. Honk twice if you’re in traffic! Let us hype you up while you bust out that last super set! You got it! Push! Believe!!!

About your hosts

Steve Ciccone

Profile picture for Steve Ciccone
Steve is one third of the bizarre comedy minds behind Unofficial Intelligence. He spent the last decade of his life living in sunny Los Angeles and is back to enduring actual weather again in New York. When he's not nerding out over fan theories about grown men and women in tights and capes, he's enjoying a nice single origin coffee. Once upon a time a gigging drummer with his SoCal reggae band and now a podcaster. Next thing you know he may try stand-up comedy and really make his parents proud.

Ben Armato

Greatest accomplishments include: Platinum Trophies on Skyrim and Kingdom Hearts III, ruining a good 10 years of his life with student loan repayments, and being a go-to for fast food knowledge.

Loves spicy food and will make you try it by saying “it’s not that bad” just to get your reaction.

Avid New York Mets and Liverpool FC fan.
