    HTP #190 - Allison Rentz
    May 30 2024
    Allison Rentz is an LPC and the author of the new book Among the Wildflowers. Allison's book is a guided journal walking the reader through different ways to explore mental health and begin a look into their own lives. In this episode of Hungry Trilobyte, Allison and I talk about what it means to be a Wildflower, when it's a good thing, and when it's not. We also spend a little time playing with my pet theory on how Star Trek: Picard discusses generational trauma. — See Show Notes at www.AaronBossig.com Follow me on BlueSky, Twitter, Hive, or Instagram - @AaronBossig

    Justin Coke is the creator of a new fantasy parody comic titled ‘SWAT – Secret Wizard Assault Team.’ While a bit of a spoof on the Harry Potter universe, Coke’s work carries some fairly serious themes through his characters, while building on themes of friendship and camaraderie. In this episode of Hungry Trilobyte, Justin and I talk about the challenges of promoting a new comic concept, partnering with his artist Rachel Distler, and how sharing a duty can bring people together in fantasy and in the real world. — See Show Notes at www.AaronBossig.com Follow me on BlueSky, Twitter, Hive, or Instagram - @AaronBossig
