Tall Tale Radio hosted by Tom Racine

In the latest episode of Tall Tale Radio, a podcast station focusing on comics and "other wonderfully geeky subjects," host Tom Racine interviews Stephan Pastis (Pearls Before Swine), Lincoln Peirce (Big Nate), Jeff Kinney (Diary of a Wimpy Kid) and Dav Pilkey (Captain Underpants) about their recent participation in the Drawn Together fundraiser.

The event, held at the Walt Disney Concert Hall to benefit Access Books and Los Angeles school libraries, featured presentations from all four author/cartoonists, on a stage that makes you feel - as Lincoln Peirce describes М_- "like you're talking to a wall of people;" and with 1,500 fans in the audience, they pretty much were! Although that may seem intimidating, Stephan Pastis says, "When you're doing it with the other [authors and cartoonists], you don't feel as much pressure" and that it was "fun to walk out on the stage and see people at all levels."

To hear more from Peirce, Pastis, Pilkey and Kinney about what it was like to participate in Drawn Together, listen to the full podcast.
