Summary

I had an interview with Nicholas Kotar and his patron community where we discussed the new graphic novel, God's'Dog, written by me and my brother Matthieu Pageau and illustrated by Cord Nielson. To exercise full autonomy and draw in listener participation, God’s’Dog will rely entirely on crowdfunding. We have a lot in store since this is only the first book of a whole series. In our interview Nicholas Kotar asks me about the origin of God’sDog, explaining a bit about the plot, garments of skin, bridging the historical and fantastical, the return of dragons and monsters, transhumanism and finally, entertainment in its proper perspective. Be sure to check out the God’sDog website for all the tiers of support, which include add-ons like prints and signed prints etc. God's'Dog Graphic Novel Website crowdfunding: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/god-s-dog-graphic-novel#/ God’sDog promo: https://youtu.be/x_6UFwr9QDA Original video from which this podcast was made: https://youtu.be/lGoLsD9-jpk Support this podcast: Website: https://thesymbolicworld.com/support/ Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/pageauvideos Subscribestar: https://www.subscribestar.com/jonathan-pageau Paypal: http://www.paypal.me/JonathanPageau Join the conversation: Unofficial Facebook discussion group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1989208418065298/ The Symbolic World Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/TheSymbolicWorld/ Social media links: Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/TheSymbolicWorld Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/pageaujonathan Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jonathan.pageau

new project, God's dog. I'm very excited to talk to you, Jonathan, about this. I had the pleasure

0:46.2

of reading the entire thing, or rather volume one beforehand, and I read it in one big gulp,

so to speak. Couldn't put it down. It was fantastic. And this is even though it was one big gulp, so to speak.

I was part of a theater group, this like big Christian theater group. And it was like,

1:57.5

like, 50 people in like massive production and musical and stuff.
