  • Jason G. Banks – Jason has been a voracious reader since he was a kid, and started listening to podcasts in 2006 after his reading led him to Scott Sigler’s work while on deployment to Iraq. Then it was one thing after another; he met Tee Morris and Pip Ballantine in 2010 after he left the service. They suggested Balticon and doing his own podcast. He said he could never do that. Two years later he started The Talk Nerdy 2 Me Podcast and participating in Balticon as a panelist on the anime track and in the viewing room, instead of just attending the convention.
