Tom Angleberger on the Evolution of the Origami Yoda Series

November 5, 2017 by Travis Jonker   Leave a Comment

Origami Series

Travis: Doing a podcast with a friend is fun. One reason is because Colby and I both usually record our interviews solo. So I get to listen to interviews Colby has done and they are totally new to my ears. This episode is a perfect case. Colby talked to Tom Angleberger all about his Origami Yoda series in front of a live audience at the Ann Arbor Comic Arts Festival. Tom was thoughtful and candid as he looked back at his early career and how O.Y. came to be.

We hope you enjoy the episode.
