Welcome to Rupees Over Ramen, the show where we discuss Animation, Dungeons & Dragons, and tons of other nerdy stuff. We'll be talking with fellow artists and creators with chill cozy times. I'm James, I'm an illustrator, animator, and storyteller who is a fan of Studio Ghibli, Disney, and Nintendo. I have a special place in my heart for cassette tapes, the Super NES, the Sony Walkman, Malt Shops, and all of the nostalgia. Great times are ahead, so grab a nice hot bowl of Ramen, some chopsticks, and join in on the discussion every month with a variety of co-hosts with every episode. ✌

This episode is about making art and sharing it without social media. If you want to take a break from social media you can still share your art in other ways and grow with the artists around you
Sidequest
Give an artist or creative friend a call and talk about art together
Love you
✌️
We are back talking about traditional art, crafting, and how we can find creative sparks in our art and in our life.
I’m like that dude on the journey who’s like hey here’s a quest if you want to do it well here it is…
Sidequest, If it’s been a while since you’ve drawn in a sketchbook, or written or made music.
Set aside 5 minutes and just start without expectations or having to meet any bar that any has set:
Have fun with it. Doodle and Dabble!
Love you all see you later! ✌️

A little snippet thought about belonging. I think true belonging is not just fitting in, is being accepted and loved for who you are
If you want more creative nerdy goodness we have an epic newsletter
Haha oh no I realized this was recorded from the ear bud in my pocket that’s the weird stomping sound, not big foot on my trail
Hey everyone it’s another late night walk podcast episode! Tonight I’m talking about cosplay, conventions and The Owl House.
This episode is for you if:
-You love cosplay
-You want to go to FanX
-You are a fan of the Owl House

I recorded this episode while on a late night walk, so I was amply accompanied by the night sounds and the ribbits of frogs. It was a fun time.
This was kind of a flow of consciousness type episode as well as a bit of a life update.
I'm so hyped for this announcement! The Grateful Ghost is now up on Amazon and Kindle https://amazon.com/dp/B0D9C5PJ2D
