PODCAST

Stories That Stick with Chad Quandt

Stories That Stick is a podcast where your host Chad Quandt (writer on Avatar Seven Havens, Star Trek Prodigy, Trollhunters) invites guests on to talk about classic stories that resonated with them-- stories that stick with them. It can be a great TV episode, a movie, a video game, even an iconic comic book; if it has a good story we want to geek out about it. A comedy pod that's been going strong for over a decade.
