It is about a coffee crazed, starving artist and her friends as they go through their own slice of life with whip cream on top. We get to talk with the wonderfully talented Liz “Lizardbeth” Boriss from Broken Plot Device as we discuss her singing ability, style and of course the love of the Java and of course the webcomic, her characters, music eclectic collection and so much more that you just have to listen to find out!
