THE WHAT
Hey everyone!👋🏽 Many of us seek out live events related to HIVE. If you haven't seen us around, let me introduce our show. We are Hive Thrive Community Hour and we're about getting to know each other off screen in a social audio space that supports what our community is doing on-chain.
THE WHO
THE WHEN & WHERE
📅 Tuesday, 26 May at 2PM EDT | 6PM UTC | 8PM CEST
📍Hive Discord General Voice Channel
Let's Get to Know Our Guests and Their Project
If you don't already know this dynamic duo, then let me introduce you to our Hive friends and
. Together they are the creative studio behind Dead Pets Society, which just debuted on Hive as
. To celebrate them, on our next Hive Thrive Episode 58, we’ll be talking with
in the Hive Discord voice channel and chatting with
in the text channel during our live recorded show. These two "deadheads" have just launched their weird and creatively explosive project. Unlike anything I've seen on the blockchain, this hand-drawn and rendered comic strip is today's answer to AI generated content fatigue.
From an actual real-life drawing board, what started as a sketch of friendly animal characters in the afterlife has de-composed (sorry, had to!) into this genuinely fascinating indie comic full of dark humour, emotional reveals, bizarre conversations, and somehow, actual heart❤️. The project has now expanded beyond Hive onto Web2 comic platforms, while still keeping Hive at its creative center. Along the way they're building story, developing characters, experimenting with NFTs through , and attracting readers who are both delighted and curious to find something so truly original.
The vibe of Dead Pets Society feels a bit like Shaun the Sheep, a bit like Tales from the Crypt, and a bit like a indie webccomic you find at two in the morning on a school night. It’s one of those projects where you can immediately tell the creators care about storytelling and worldbuilding even ahead of engagement. Their intent is for us to fall in love with these little characters, one panel at a time.
Get Ready for the Episode 58! 🎙️
This is a social invitation you'll want to accept! The session will be bumpin'! So mark your calendar for 6pm UTC, Tuesday, 26 May.
We’ll have fun as we talk comics, creativity, Web3 publishing, internet culture, building original IP on Hive, and what happens when two creators decide to make something so unapologetically strange. 👏🏾👏🏽👏
So invite a friend, come a little early, bring your best brew 🍺, and claim the best seat in the house. 🛋️ See ya there! 🥰
Please say you'll come!
It'll be more fun with you there! 🥳
About Hive Thrive Community Hour
Hive Thrive Community Hour is our weekly town hall for builders, critics, and curators.
Each week we slow things down, ask real questions, and let ideas breathe in real time.
There are no scripts. No talking points handed out in advance.
Just open conversation about Hive. We discuss its culture, its economics, its people, and the future we’re all quietly shaping together.
We Explore...
• Why Hive keeps attracting people who claim not to care…but clearly do
• What actually creates value here versus what we pretend creates value
• The psychology of the downvote button
• Whether Hive is anti-fragile or just stubborn
• And why everyone thinks they could run the DHF better
There may be hard truths.
There will be laughs.
There'll likely be awkward moments (it happens!).
Hive Thrive Ain't Just Another Discord Show 😄
We treat it more like a live town hall for the blockchain. It's a place where all of us can share the same room and talk about what is shaping Hive.
If you’ve ever caught yourself thinking about Hive — what works, what doesn’t, or why it somehow keeps pulling people back in. You’ll probably feel at home with the likes of us. 🤗
What we’re trying to do
• Help people understand what’s actually happening behind the scenes
• Reveal the real stories behind Hive’s institutions and projects
• Talk openly about governance friction and systemic issues
• Look for ways forward that strengthen the network instead of dividing it
Hive is a wonderful and remarkable experiment🔬. And like any experiment, it works best when people are willing to talk honestly about it.

HIVE THRIVE COMMUNITY HOUR —
"Where The Blockchain Thinks Out Loud!"
We Don't Run the Show Alone!
The show would not go as smoothly as it does each week were it not for , who pings our Hive friends on Discord for the show to start & who drops a resource link in the text channel faster than a dog on dropped bacon. We appreciate you, KG! 💐
