Ep 144. ”To Be Essential” (Part 2 of Amy’s Interview with Nathan Rearden)

In this next part, we hear about what it's like to be "essential" for Nathan Rearden (a current nursing assistant and aspiring tattoo artist), specifically during the Covid pandemic. 

We also hear about when and where we can hope to see Nathan next. If you happen to be near the KY area and have an interest in comic books, you might want to pay attention to this next episode so that you can not only invest in a passion for graphic story, but also go meet Nathan and the wonderful team of tattoo artists that he'll be exhibiting with: Check out Lexington Comic and Toy Convention...Should be a blast!

Thank you Nathan; Not only for your time on this show, but for the many ways you've served... This could not be more perfect as this podcast comes post Veteran's Day and right before Thanksgiving. We are very grateful for you.
