IN DEEP With Dan 09: Cosplayer, mother, and author Kelly Guentner on Cosplay and Comics

IN DEEP With Dan Podcast

Dan first met Kelly Guentner back in 2012 or so when she and his wife worked at the same place. Dan and Kristie went over to Kelly’s place for a party and they fell in love with her and her friends. While Dan digs the comics world, whether comics, films, or TV shows, cosplay is something he has never gotten into but interests him, so who better than Kelly to have on the show to school him up?

Kelly stopped by the studio to have a vodka and Crystal Light with Dan. Halloween is kind of boring for cosplayers, said Kelly. They spoke of Netflix’s Sabrina and the reboot of Charmed. Kelly told the story of how she got into cosplay via a visit to the Illinois town of Metropolis, and then visiting the Superhero Costuming Forum.

The use of glasses as a superhero disguise (The Clark Kent Effect)...Dan has a possible reason that this works. Hint: Genes for facial recognition.

Kelly missed Dan’s political statements during his five month hiatus from Facebook. She found his words well stated.

That said, he really thinks this episode is all about “Spittle, Lubricant, and Leakage”, so what does she know anyway?

“Under the Red Hood” was released in 2010, so Kelly pretty much nailed her recollection of it being “Nine years old”.

They talked of HBO’s “The Good Place” and how good it is. No spoilers are in THIS episode.

Freeform TV used to be ABC Family. Dan recommends Cloak & Dagger, on that channel.

Kelly talks about DC Universe, the subscription service, and how Titans is a good show. Dan is jealous. He later found out that it is available on Roku devices. Yay for Dan!

They drank some more, taking a quick break to get more drink. Kelly mentioned “Let Dan Tell You How To Love Your Life While He Drinks Wine”. Dan asked Kelly if there was anythign specific he needed to tell her. She said she is having a hard time making the perfect sugar cookie. Dan suggested a means by which to accomplish this.

Dan folded his underwear today. Kelly thought that quite zen of him.

Please TELL YOUR FRIENDS ABOUT THE SHOW! Thanks so much!
