Jiggy Cruz welcomes you to his podcast where he interviews guests from different parts of the Geek culture! Comic Books, Star Wars, Anime, Games, and more!
One of the best things you can get at a Comic Convention is making a new friend. Mike MacKenzie has been a friend since 2016 all thanks to the Marvel Booth un San Diego!
Mike joins me all the way from Boston and we reminisce about comic cons, we talk about LEGO, his life as a Geek Dad, coaching the US National Ultimate Frisbee Team, and he responds to the Star Wars hot takes from the first episode!

You know him from the pages of Kikomachine Komix, News Hardcore, 12, and 14! Arguably, you can call him Mr. Komikon! Underneath that success is really such a modest and humble man, Manix Abrera joins the Geek Speak Podcast and tells his untold story! Manix shares how he used to watch his dad draw and how he got a job drawing for the Philippine Collegian. He also shares how Kajo Baldisimo was instrumental in getting him to have his work published! Finally, he also shares a secret illustration of a Cory Aquino robot that blew my mind!
