About Doug Bost and Adam Bernstein are Grown Ass Men

Writer Doug Bost and musician Adam Bernstein discuss the things that grown men shouldn’t care about -- but these guys do. What’s on the table? Only fun stuff. Episodes focus on all aspects of the comic book universe, from the warehouse of a professional comic book hoarder to interviews with some of the greatest comics creators alive -- Neal Adams, Klaus Jansen, Chris Claremont, and more. With frequent guests, Doug and Adam also cover movies, music, classic TV, and important topics like, “What musical style do you associate with James T Kirk?” (The answer, of course, is Wagner.) And the kicker: Original music by Adam Bernstein in each episode.

   Episode 110: Have Yourself a Bronze-Age Little Christmas

   Boom! 2025 is over. And right at the end of it, your favorite grown ass gringos got together to give each other the only gift men of our general demeanor, height, weight and build really want (besides the end of fascism): comics. Yes, it’s a Christmas Convincing, and you’ll hear about the Sub Mariner and Kamandi stories that filled out our stockings, and why our new year’s resolution is to read more of a certain kind of comic. Happy new year, folks.

   Episode 109: Ep. 109: GAM vs. the FF

   Adam and Doug Battle the FF!The Grown Ass Men are BACK to crack open Marvel and DC’s flagship creations—Superman and the Fantastic Four! Could we stay away from those tentpole movies? We could not. We compare and contrast the two summer flicks, we wonder why you’d wanna minimize the FF’s powers, we expose the A.I. clown-shoe in Superman, we remind everybody that The Incredibles is the best FF movie yet, and we ask the tough questions: “Who’s that girl at the synagogue?!?” In addition to original music by Adam Bernstein, you even get a new superhero movie music playlist. You’re welcome!
