note for international readers: hot topic is a store found in suburban shopping malls. they sell a bizarre combination of naughty novelties, goth gear like corsets and boots, and trendy logo shirts with 'clever' sayings or nintendo characters or the emblems of punk rock bands that were big a decade before the average customer was born. it is the dictionary definition of over-the-counter counterculture.

TUESDAY, 1/21: Tune into EXPERT PANEL on Twitch

January 20, 2025 by David Malki !

THIS WEEK, I’ll be streaming live with fellow historical-art-enthusiast Dylan Meconis for a new show we’re calling Expert Panel.

We’ll be trawling through the archives of historical newspapers and magazines, and trying our best to puzzle out what’s going on. What was the intended joke here?

This is an exercise born from my own research for Wondermark source material, marveling at some of what I’ve unearthed and excited to share it with the world in a whole different way.

This first episode will be streamed live at:

• TUESDAY JANUARY 21
• 1:00 PM PACIFIC TIME
• twitch.tv/davidmalki

You can even add a reminder to your calendar, if you like!

UPDATE: For a limited time, you can watch the archived stream on Twitch!
