"Wait, I Know You" Podcast Season Two, Episode Twelve - The Season 2 Premiere! Nick chats with Christy Marx, the head writer and story editor for Jem & The Holograms. Christy also wrote for many other amazing cartoons and tv shows from the last 40 years including GI Joe, He-Man, Spider-Man, and X-Men Evolution. Nick & Christy also chat about Christy's journey into becoming a narrative video game designer, working for Sierra Online, and eventually joining Zynga. They also chat about what it was like to work for Stan Lee, Christy's Sisterhood of Steel comics, and how Christy (and her husband + cats) were survivors of the 2018 California Campfire Wildfire that claimed their home and almost all of their personal effects.
