From Fences to Funny: Nate Fakes and the World of Break of Day

Join host Alex G for a lively conversation with cartoonist Nate Fakes, creator of Break of Day.

Nate shares his journey from fifth-grade contests and college cartoons to syndication with Comics Kingdom. Hear about his offbeat inspirations, his daily writing routine, and why inanimate objects, cats, and the Grim Reaper often find their way into his comics.

Along the way, Nate reflects on his time at MAD Magazine, building fences in Kansas, making the leap to print syndication, and his connection with fellow cartoonists at the Rubens.

Whether you’re a fan of surreal one-panel humor or just curious about the life of a modern cartoonist, this episode is packed with laughs and insight.
