Gil: The MUTANT SEASON

So my middle son Gil has a Nerdist Industries podcast and his own twitter account. He learned about entertaining and putting on shows from Mo Fathelbab and the NerdMelt crew over the Summer break in 2011. He wasn’t sent to camp or participated in other seasonal activities because hanging at Meltdown Comics and the NerdMelt Theater was all he wanted to do. Katie Levine, who produces podcasts for Chris Hardwick, spotted Gil when he was on Mo and DC Pierson’s Nerdy Secrets show. She gave him a test run and it went beyond everyone’s expectations. Now, more than 10 episodes in, “The Mutant Season with Gil” is picking up steam and picking up followers.

Please take the time to check out some of my son’s past shows. Hope you find them to your liking. If you do, please “Like”, follow and/or comment on iTunes: https://bitly.com/itunesTheMutantSeason

Dear Los Angelinos who play D&D and/or other RPGs,

We here at DnDMelt are looking for a few good men and women to be on our team of Super Dungeon Masters. We will be running games on Thursday nights and Sunday Days. Perks for you will be *Free DnDMelt Monthly Membership! and DM swag… Amongst other things I’m wheeling and dealing for and will post about soon.

As DMs, you will be my Knights of the Round Table. I am looking for Men and Women I can rely on to show up when they say they can and be on time those days. You will not be required to DM every gaming day. I will work with whatever schedule works for you because you are my Rockstars! You are my Magic Makers. Without you we can not game.

If you are interested in DMing please email DnD@meltcomics.com with:

Name:                                  Email:                                  Phone #:

Preferred gaming platform: 
Are you willing to work with beginning players?
Do you want to run an ongoing campaign or One Shot Adventures?
Are you ok running One shots with different players each time we run gaming sessions?
How many players can you manage at a time (max amount)

This is an ongoing search. If you aren’t a DM but know of one to ask please please do. We here at DnDMelt are changing the way people see #DnD and we want you to be a part of it. Thanks everyone and I look forward to meeting you all really soon!!

From the producers of SHAUN OF THE DEAD and SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD comes ATTACK THE BLOCK, a fast funny, frightening action adventure movie that pits a teen gang against an invasion of savage alien monsters. It turns a London housing estate into a sci-fi playground. A tower block into a fortress under siege. And teenage street kids into heroes. It’s inner city versus outer space.

Screening: June 15th, 2011 7PM Pacific’s Arclight Hollywood
