Episode 140: matt furie

In this episode I am joined by artist and comic book creator Matt Furie, who is also the man behind the world famous Internet meme Pepe the Frog.

In 2015 this character was adopted by the alt-right movement and was eventually marked as a hate symbol by the Anti-Defamaton League. Since then Matt has publicly expressed his dismay at Pepe being used as a hate symbol, and killed the character off.
