Five years ago today (a few weeks ago, that is), our very first Shortbox Showcase episode debuted. Yes, other shows in the network had gone live the week before, but since this has become our flagship, we consider 7/30/13 as our official network starting date.

In addition to covering some feedback, and talking about how awesome our listeners are and all that, we talk about what we have planned for our next year of podcasting, and how the last year of podcasting went.

But we start with our ANNUAL tradition, by talking about an comic book Annual ... except we actually don't talk about, out friends ACT IT OUT! That's right, this episode includes an actual AUDIO DRAMA version of the story "Animal Kingdom," from the 2017 Super Sons Annual #1.
