In this episode, Jermayn Parker is joined by co-host Stephen East which includes several rants by the boys. These podcasts are our attempt to wrap up everything from comic reviews to catching up on the latest Newspaper Comics Kingdom stories and related news from around the world. The hardest thing is to try and keep abreast of everything that happens in a month and stay concise—we usually fail.
As it has been two months since we last reviewed everything that has happened in the Phantom's world, we have split the wrap-up podcast into two. In this podcast we will discuss all the related Phantom news and review the Newspaper daily and Sunday stories. In our next podcast which will be out in just over a week, we will review all the comics from around the world, including Australia, the USA, Germany, and Austria.
We love comments and feedback from the Phantom phans from around the world. If you agree and/or disagree with us, you can either email us; leave your comments at our YouTube channel, and/or leave them at our social media platforms on Facebook, Twitter, and/or Instagram.
If you're one of the phans who can only listen to some parts of the podcast, below is a timeline of what we discussed.
