Nat talks Schulz on the radio
I’ve got the official definite time for that radio appearance I mentioned a while back. On this coming Monday, Jan 31, I’ll be in the studios of KPCC, the biggest public radio station in Southern California, appearing on AirTalk with Larry Mantle. With me in the studio will be “Drabble” …
The Theology of Peanuts

What’s coming in 2011
What will this year bring Peanuts fans. The new animated special will be accompanied by a book adaptation. There will, of course, be two new volumes of The Complete Peanuts, covering 1979 through 1982. And beyond that? Honestly, I don’t know. Usually by now I’d have some clue on some …
The End is Near, Charlie Brown
The end of 2010 is zooming up on us, and 2011 is right around the corner… as proven by the fact that Happy New Year, Charlie Brown is airing tonight.
Warm Blanket coming to DVD
I still haven’t heard final word on whether the new animated special, Happiness is a Warm Blanket, Charlie Brown, will get a TV airing before it gets released to home video… but we do now have the date for that video release. The DVD will be available on March 29, …
