December was a busy month for me. I graduated college, I celebrated the holidays. But reading was still done and here's what I ended up reading during the month. www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGK3...

In an hour, I will be doing the State of The Okie livestream, where I talk about what happened in 2025 and what I hope to do in 2026. Come on by for a while and listen...maybe even comment! www.youtube.com/watch?v=IlkP...

The spin off Some Okie Dudes returns as today I talk with Matt and Ian from Hobby Vomit on the podcast! We talk about books, movies, sports, anything and everything. Check it out! www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRA2...

My aunt is celebrating her 60th birthday today, so no Social Club sadly. But on Wednesday, I will be doing my State of The Okie at 3PM central, so come on by and hang out then!

I decided to do something a little different today and have an award show! Yes, this is the 2025 Okies Award show! Give it a shot! www.youtube.com/watch?v=O6j1...

My Christmas haul for the year. Comics and books both!

Wearing my ugly Superman sweater T-shirt for the occasion. Merry Christmas everyone!

Today I get in touch with my feelings as I talk about some of my favorite Christmas things today. Come check it out and Merry Christmas everyone! www.youtube.com/watch?v=EAZ-...

I'm genuinely baffled by the hate towards Imagine I've seen recently. I mean, sure, I don't know if I agree with Lennon politically. But what's wrong with a song about how we should get along with each other and not be divided by greed, religion, and politics?

After being introduced by ISamwise, I decided to have on author AC Wilson (Amos) on Britton's Hang Out Hour. We talk about writing, fantasy, and so much more! www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0fE...

The Great When isn’t what I’d call one of Moore’s best works. As a matter of fact it seems like he’s riffing on themes already covered by people like Gaiman and Susanna Clarke. But this feels like one where Moore is just having fun with a concept and seeing where it takes him.

In about ten minutes, I will be opening up Britton's Social Club on YouTube. Come join us. Open invite as always! www.youtube.com/watch?v=0HcG...

Comics I can endlessly revisit: The Walking Dead Alan Moore’s Saga of The Swamp Thing Sweet Tooth Batman: Year One Lee and Kirby’s Fantastic Four Preacher The Sandman DC: The New Frontier All-Star Superman Deadly Class Saga Transmetropolitan

Random Recommendation: DC: The New Frontier shows what superheroes should be at their best. Darwyn Cooke pulls out all the stops in this deeply heartfelt love letter to the DC universe, superheroes, and their limitless potential. I wish more superhero comics were like this one.

Year of Lemire is coming to an end, and I have some thoughts about that. It was fun while it lasted, but now it's coming to an end. And what to do next? Find out here... www.youtube.com/watch?v=wsBJ...

The Year of Lemire is coming to an end, so I had to do something to commemorate the occasion. So today I talk about my top ten @jefflemire171.bsky.social books...in my opinion, check it out! www.youtube.com/watch?v=9mpp...

I wouldn't have had Alan Moore doing a pretty good impression of Stan Lee on my cards. But here we are. Stranger things have happened.

The dudes in r/conservative appear to be universally appalled at the President's post about Rob Reiner, and I gotta tell you, when you've lost the pandering sycophants of r/conservative, you've finally gone too far

I feel like every time I turn around, something horrible happens. RIP Rob Reiner. Thanks for all the amazing movies and deeply sorrowful that you were taken from us in such a horrid way. Rest well Meathead.

Britton's Hang Out Hour returns and today I have on Christian's HobbiBlog and we talk about all things bookish and cinematic. Give it a watch! www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbrD...

I'm graduating college tomorrow, so today I decided to celebrate by streaming for a little bit. So come on, hang out, say hi. I'd love to see you. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7CG...

The Beat’s Best Comics of 2025 The Beat staff has come together once again to compile its annual, wide-spanning list of the best comics of 2025.

SA Cosby's doing a Luke Cage novel?! I did not see this coming...but I think he'll do very well at it!

A very good trailer. I'm not as hyped for it as I was for Superman, but I think there's promise here. I like Milly Alcock's sass and personality for this role. Wait a sec, is that Lobo?! www.youtube.com/watch?v=TF4f...

Another strong story from Lemire in the Black Hammer verse, a really sad one too. Also a good teaser since this is Lemire’s tribute to Robinson’s Starman, which I hope to start next year. This might be my last read for Year of Lemire as well, it’s a bittersweet day.

You all voted and now I'm doing the video. Today I talk about my favorite fantasy settings and I try to mix it up a bit by not including just books. Give it a look and tell me what you think! www.youtube.com/watch?v=r9Y8...

Lehane does it once again. He takes a story that often earns an eye roll for me (more for its subpar execution than anything) and turns it into a deeply probing and emotional ride, focusing more on the consequences of racism than mere finger wagging. Don’t miss it.

Britton's Hang Out Hour returns and today I have on Will McCloughlin. We talk about writing, books, tabletop RPGs, and more! One of the most enjoyable pods I've had in some time. www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHoY...

I don't really love the idea of playing against Alabama again. I was kind of hoping for a match with the Notre Dame team, personally speaking. But oh well, it is what it is. Let's go get Bama again. Boomer!

Britton's Social Club is back, it's the show where we talk about...whatever we want. Come check it out! Invite is open as always. www.youtube.com/watch?v=WDZw...

Pale Fire is less a novel and more a literary experiment. It is a bewildering and often elusive read. Yet for me, it’s a meditation on art, how we connect with it, and art’s relationship with criticism. Nabokov was far over my head with this book.

Today I team up with good friend of the channel @rafblutaxt.bsky.social to talk about Thomas Pynchon's Vineland, which was recently quasi-adapted into One Battle After Another. We talk about the book and how it's eerily resonant in today's world. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zEOU...

As Year of Lemire is coming to a close, I read one of his personal joints Mazebook. It’s another quite good effort from him with a focus on grief, loss, and ultimately acceptance. Feels very Lynchian. I am saddened that we’re near the end of Year of Lemire, but all things end.

Days of Our Sooners returns as Dad and I discuss OU's victory over LSU and lament over the fact that the main season is over...give it a watch! www.youtube.com/watch?v=k15t...

Random Recommendation: For my money, Batman: Year One is still the best thing Frank Miller ever did. It’s his most disciplined work, with his weaknesses minimized. A great balance between machismo and hard hitting noir. Mazzucchelli’s art is absolutely sublime. A top 5 Batman story, no doubt.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas and November is now over, so I talk about the books I read during the month, give it a watch! www.youtube.com/watch?v=y82u...

My friend @liviajelliot.com was kind enough to invite me onto her channel to discuss one of the greatest pieces of sequential art ever published: Watchmen. Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' magnum opus about power, sequential art, and superheroes. www.youtube.com/watch?v=078X...

In this week's episode, I invited @someokiedude.bsky.social and Jarrod (The Fantasy Thinker) to unpack: ✔️ Rorschach: principled, terrifying, unbreakable. ✔️ Ozymandias: the hero… and the villain. ✔️ Dr Manhattan: his nonlinear perception. The debate was intense. (3/4)

Random panel post: This is likely my favorite single panel from Moore’s Swamp Thing run. I love the intersection between the art and text.

We get testy today on Britton's Hang Out Hour as I have on Niko's Book Reviews, we talk about books, shows, and whatever comes to mind. Check it out! www.youtube.com/watch?v=WlMe...

Great choice! "The Old Iron Dream" highlights how sci-fi reflects societal issues. As Philip K. Dick said, "Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn’t go away." 🪐📚 What are your

Britton's Social Club is back in action. This is the show where me and a select few guests talk about...whatever we want. Come join us. Invite's open as always: www.youtube.com/watch?v=kEgy...

Today I come back to recommend some comic books to some of my favorite BookTubers in my ever increasing attempts to get BookTube to read American comics. Come check it out! www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-RB...

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Today Days of Our Sooners returns where Dad and I talk about OU beating the Missouri Tigers, give it a watch! www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiv5...

Thanksgiving is upon us! I can't even believe it. Today I took a note from Talking Story and decided to talk about the characters I would invite to Thanksgiving, give it a crack! www.youtube.com/watch?v=zUlh...

I'm tired of the criticism of Batman being this manchild who wastes his fortune on gadgets. He's someone who decided to do something after his world was destroyed and help as many people as he can so to prevent anyone from going through the pain he feels every day of his life.

Today I prove my commitment to this show, as I get up at 8 in the morning to talk to David from Four Corners of The Page, great guy. Check it out! www.youtube.com/watch?v=inMc...

Fuck Somewhere Only We Know, I still think Nothing In My Way is Keane's best song, followed very closely by A Bad Dream: www.youtube.com/watch?v=uP-K...

Britton's Social Club is back today where we sit down, relax, and talk about...whatever pops to mind. Come join us! Open invite as always! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vjb2...
