The finale of our TESD Town History Series (before it switches to a new platform to continue)! Chuck once again sits down with Ming Chen and gets the story of his life from late 2001 to the present day! Hear how he was laid off by Ben Affleck and Matt Damon, and his slow transition from meek web guy to outgoing podcast superstar! After the interview, Chuck and I talk about this upcoming Halloween, and our favorite Halloween-enhancing creative projects. We close with a story from our 2018 Halloween episode, as Chuck relates the story of a man running for town council and reveal a shocking secret from the candidate's past!

#481 - The Story of Ming Chen

Part three in our multi-part miniseries, "TESD Town History!" I sit down for an in-person one-on-one with Ming Chen of Comic Book Men / View Askew and frequent TESD Town mainstay, inside Jay and Silent Bob's Secret Stash!
We learn about Ming growing up, seeking a place in the world, creating a "Clerks" fansite that changed his life, his early initiation working with Kevin, getting pulled to LA by Ben Affleck + Matt Damon, and more!
After the interview, Brad and I tell a story about the time I accidentally got a bomb squad called to a comic con, and I lament, "Why doesn't anyone understand it was just an ACCIDENT?!?"
