A STEGMAN FAMILY STORY

Ryan lets loose one of his famous family tales.

Heya!!!

Most of the crew is heading back home after an exhausting New York Comic Con today, but we wanted to say thanks to everyone who was able to come out to the show and drop by the booth! We’ll have a bunch of photos and video to share from all the east coast adventures soon.

Here’s a quick mini-podcast to start your week off with a few laughs…

Ryan Stegman: I'll just tell you this real quick. So, my wife has, like, a dark streak in her. And she, you know, likes morbid humor. And she always sides with the bad guy in movies.

Donny Cates: Yeah, Erin fucks me up dude. I've been hanging out with Erin before and she'll say some pretty fucking wild-ass shit.

Ryan: Yeah, and—

Donny: When you and I were trying to watch Zack Snyder's Justice League, she was just over in the corner, like, two cocktails deep, just saying the darkest shit I've ever heard in my life, and I was just like “JESUS, Erin”.

Ryan: *Laughs*

Donny: Alright, go ahead, sorry.

Ryan: So Harrison, apparently (he's my seven-year-old) has picked this up. So first, I'll just tell this part of the story just so you see where I'm coming from. I said to him yesterday, “What do you want to be for Halloween?”, and he goes, “The Grim Reaper”. He had that, like, locked and loaded. I was like, “What are you talkin’ about, why?” And he goes, “’Cuz he's DEATH”.

Donny: Hell yeah. That’s what’s up.

Ryan: So I was like, “okay”. But then later, we're in the car… My kids always have deep thoughts in the car. And he just all-of-a-sudden goes, “I'll bet one of the things that you can do to get sent to jail for life is kill your parents”.

Donny: *Bursts out laughing*

Ryan: *Laughs* And we were like, “What???” And he just, like, started elaborating on it, he was just like, “Yeah, it's like, you would go to jail for your whole life”. And we were like, “You sure would!”

Donny: Yeah.

Ryan: “Are you thinkin’ about doin’ that?” And he was just like, “No, I just had that thought and shared it.” So anyway, if I end up dead, Harrison did it.
