As cool as it was to have Doug Jones of all people mispronounce my name, it would have been even cooler to have Doug Jones of all people pronounce my name correctly.
I would've gladly provided some sort of pronunciation guide to Eisner staff if I'd been asked!
@keezyyoung.bsky.social-some of the hosts were great, others...okay, I'm sorry, but we really do need to retire the "sorry if I can't pronounce this" bit. whether it's on the organizers or the announcers, it's disrespectful and annoying. (but I know I wasn't asked for my name pronouncation; neither was @kodyisover.com)
