Sunday @ 5:30 PM PT
ERIC LEWALD and JULIA LEWALD
with host JOHN SEMPER JR.

Eric Lewald and Julia Lewald are two of the premier writer-producers in youth-oriented and animated television, with over 700 produced credits, a number-one hit, an Emmy nomination and an Environmental Media Award between them. They have been showrunners, together or individually, on 14 series, including X-Men: The Animated Series, which launched in 1992 and put Marvel characters on the map, making Fox TV the number one network in kids’ programming.

Eric is also the author of a book entitled, Previously On X-Men: The Making of an Animated Series, which tells the behind-the-scenes story about how, on small budgets and under tight schedules, X-MEN: The Animated Series became a television show that, despite an industry full of naysayers, immediately shot to the top of the ratings.

Host John Semper Jr. was the producer and showrunner for Spider-Man: The Animated Series, which went on the air in 1994, two years after X-Men, and was also a number one hit for the Fox TV network.

Experience Talks is going on hiatus after this show,
but will return with an exciting new podcast on KPFK.org!
