Tag: Human Target

Shawn and Paul shut down Gabriel’s Horn and the Wayne Family Gardens, but come join us for the last hurrah! We talk about our favorites from our 3-year Reunion party and hear about what you Bat-Cousins had to say about yours!

We are also bowing to listener demand, and announce the subject of our next show, coming later in 2025.

Thank you all for your support and for helping clean up after the raucous guests at the Reunion. We love our Bat-Cousins!

Paul and Shawn

For “Does This Trade Dress Make Me Look Phat” by Xum Yukinori:

There are a few extra copies of the book left and they plan to print a second batch next year if there is enough demand.  So, they can set up a “preorder list.”  The book is sold at print cost, which is $75, plus shipping.  People can email Adrian Zet at xumswho@gmail.com for more info.
