  1. Nice interview Dave. Great job Tom.

    Had a great time listening.

  2. Love Tall Tales radio. Great job (as always).

  3. “Dave is up for Best Cartoonist at this yearâ??s National Cartoonist Societyâ??s Reuben Award weekend.”

    Dave is one of the 3 candidates nominated for The Reuben Award, which is “cartoonist of the year”. There is only one Reuben Award. The others are category awards for “best” (comic strip, syndicated panel, magazine cartoons, book illustration, etc.).

    I know it sounds like nitpicking to a lot of people, but I think it’s still important to understand just what the awards are.

  4. Thank you Gents…I’m hoping to post an interview with Stephan Pastis before the actual awards, too…it’s Reuben-riffic. It’s such a pleasure to be talking to these artists…Dave Coverly is like the 3rd nicest guy on the planet. (After the Dali Lama and this guy outside of Manchester.)
