MYTHWITS
MythWits was a weekly live web series. But it’s time has come to an end.
Last Episode
Science
This playlist is for shows where we interview scientists. Pete and Mike are well read on many different fields of science and we interview our guests with thought provoking questions but we make sure to keep the conversation fun and accessable by everyone.
Notable Guests
Astronaut Mike Mullane, Pamela Gay, Jack Clemons, Zach Moore, Nicole Gugliucci, Stephen W. Ramsden, and John Cmar.
Educational
This playlist has the shows where we interview an expert in a field other than entertainment, art, or science. These are often extremely interesting shows about things you didn't even know you wanted to know about.
Notable Guests
Denise Clemons, Greg Paye, The Dark Horses, Roxanne Cai, and Rob Sullivan.
JustUs
This is our playlist of shows where we just hang out and talk. Sometimes we have a topic, sometimes we just act like fools. It gives Mike and Pete an opportunity to dive deep into subjects we don't usually get to with industry guests. These are the best shows for fan interaction because we're happy to go down just about any path you want to take us.
One of the best JustUs shows we do is the annual Summer Movie Draft. These are not to be missed.
Artists
This playlist is for all sorts of artists. We've interviewed animators, actors, comic book artists, voice actors, and directors. These shows are often the funnest because artists are often the most dynamic and entertaining individuals.
Notable Guests
Bob Camp, Pat Kilbane, Professor Elemental, Jen Page, Steve Lavigne, Duncan Rouleau, Joe Kelly, Satine Phoenix, and Ben Bishop.
Authors
This playlist is for author interviews. We specialize in fantasy and sci-fi but have interviewed some non-fiction authors as well. We love to read and it's always a joy to talk to indie arthors making it happen.
Notable Guests
Scott Sigler, Tee Morris, Phillipa Ballentine, David M. Ewalt, Paul E. Cooley, and Mur Lafferty.
Game Designers
We interview a lot of game designers. Mostly tabletop RPG but we've had a video game designer and a few board game and card game designers as well.
Notable Guests
Ed Greenwood, John Wick, Mike Pondsmith, Merle Rassmussen, Tim Kask, Luke Crane, Jess Hartley, Stephen S. Long, Mark Rein-Hagen.

we are joined by Bill Ayrey, a former space suit materials designer and tester for NASA. Bill will give us a behind the scenes look at the company that designed and manufactured one of the most important garments ever to be worn in outer space.
Bill Ayrey is recently retired from ILC Dover after 41 years of employment. He was responsible for all materials and final product testing of the space suits that the company made for NASA beginning with the Shuttle program through the International Space Station. He also became known as the company historian who relates the stories of the early company years when they designed and made the Apollo space suits.
His new book titled "Lunar Outfitters" is under contract with the University Press of Florida and he hopes to have it released later this year. He has spent many years helping the Smithsonian Air & Space museum in the efforts to preserve the Apollo suits in their collection.
