Please Hold For Dave Sim 12/2021

Hi, Everybody!

Hey kids!
Ya know what time it is?
That's right, It's Please Hold For Dave Sim Time:
"It's Please Hold For Dave Sim Time!
"It's Please Hold For Dave Sim Time!
"Dave Sim and Manly Dow,
"Say 'let's do it any-how!'
"Let's give a rousing cheer,
"Cause Please Hold Time is here,
"It's time to start this $#!*,
"So let's get on with it!"
Here's the audio:

And, here's the Video (which is actually superior, because you can see what Dave's talking about.)

Part One: Dave reminisces about Jeff Seiler. And answers a question from David Birdsong about Steve Ditko:
Part two: Dave answers this question from Mikhail:
Hi Matt! Hi Dave! Nice to hear from you again.

Dave, Cerebus has been translated into several languages. Did the editors and translators communicate with you as I usually do? And were there any other interesting stories related to the translated editions?
Part Three: Dave answers this question from Easton, PA's Michael R.:
Hi Matt!
I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Here's a question for Dave but it may have something to do with your question for Dave.

Hi Dave!
I remember reading questions from the Cerebus comic book back in the day and fans asking if something would happen to you, what would happen with Cerebus' ending? I think I remember that Gerhard would finish the book without words. I'm sure there were a few other answers that I have forgotten. My question is: is there a notebook that Margaret doesn't have that you still possess that has the ending written down if something should have happened to you before you got to 300?
All the best,
Michael R.
Part Four: Dave answers this question from MJ Sewall:
Dave,

Hello!
You've mentioned many times that you sold your comics collection years ago.
You also talk about all the free Indy/self-published/creator owned books you receive as gifts.
Do you keep all of these and/or consider this a separate kind of "collection"?

Cheers from bat-shit crazy California,
M J Sewall

Part Five: Dave answers this question from Nadab Art:
Have you read anything by the British author G.K. Chesterton? I know you exclusively read the Bible and Koran, so I won't try convincing you to read his stuff now. But I'm curious if you came across any book or other writings by him in the past.

Thanks, Nadab
Part Six: Dave answers this question from Matt Dow (WAIT! That's me!):
So now that I’ve read Volumes 1 and 2 of The Strange Death of Alex Raymond (plus the mock-ups of Volume 3 and Carson’s attempt at an ending, my question is: How much of the glamourpuss SDOAR narrative still “counts”? Like there’s two pages from issue seven:


That I believe tie in to the bits of SDOAR that THIS Guy ruined:


So, how much of glamourpuss still “counts”?

(Also, I’ve started giving away PDFs of glamourpuss to anybody who wants them, I just tell them “If you wanna swing by cerebusdownloads.com and donate what they're worth to you, I won't stop ya!” And everybody says they’re gonna. So if a bunch of money has gotten donated, that’s why. And if NOTHING has gotten donated, it’s because all your “fans” are lying-rotten-no-good-rat-bastards!...
So, there ya go.

So to put Matt's question in comic-fan terms: Is the "glamourpuss" content SDOAR canon?
