Welcome to Sex, Body and Soul. I'm Kate Roberts, founder of the Body Agency, and on this show, we talk about the marvel that is our bodies, what they can do and what they need to thrive.

Ladies out there, our time is now. Let's get to it.

Our next guest is Garab Seamus, who is a visionary in the superhero world. He started

Comic Con over 25 years ago, reaching billions of people. Garab, who's also a very good friend of

mine, recently started a company called Hero Maker Studios, a technology first entertainment company

utilizing NFTs and Web3 storytelling.

So he's all about games and interactive media.

And we're really going to talk about the impact that comic world and superheroes and gaming has on our youth.

Garab, my friend, welcome to the show.

Hey, so excited to be here and see you.

See your lovely friends.

It's likewise, likewise.

And this is our friend anniversary, I think.

I was thinking back to when we first met, which has to be, gosh, six or seven years ago at Art

Basil, am I right?

Yes, it was our art slash friend anniversary, however you pronounce that. Yes, it was literally at this

time years ago when we met for the first time. And it was just that instant connection that

we had. It was just right from day one.

It was so fun. And, you know, you've done so many things with your career. And of course,

I met you having an art show with your gorgeous art, which we see in the background. And, you know,

we both share this love of art and telling stories. And that's really what I want to talk about today and tell your incredible story. And of course, nobody's better at telling it than you. But how I know you is

essentially you went from volunteering at your parents' comic book shop, which was called Toy Whiz, that you begged them to set up.
