BRAND NEW EPISODE! With the "Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers" (2022) movie releasing today on Disney+ here is Rob and I talking about the very first trailer that came out. I know, I know... not exactly fresh, but knowing what we know now about what the next trailer brought and the impending movie review we're going to do it all works out. These first episodes back to the routine were really hard to get out the door for a lot of reasons that we'll share on Patreon but there's still one more episode ...

We'll talk all about it ...

Undone is the new rotoscoped* show on Amazon dealing with time travel, mental illness, both, and of course relationships personal and family - because what narrative isn't, really. Stephen watched the whole season, Rob watched about half. *(it's a broad term, but we talk a lot about the style) #RubberOnionPodcast @RubberOnion everywhere...

It's an HBO Max kind of show where we talk through all of (kinda) season 1 of Genndy Tartakovsky's "Primal" and J.G. Quintel's "Close Enough." How engaging is a 30 min series without any dialog? How about a 15 min one with a lot? Will Rob ever get to eat his lunch?

Last episode we talked about new animated shows, this week we talk about new animation opportunities! And with all that positivity, I get mildly annoyed at the Emmy selection this year and Rob sees it as an opportunity to make me explain why Rick and Morty doesn't thrill me... again. And it works every time. #RubberOnionPodcast @RubberOnion everywhere...

We had a live-streamed show (from our respective homes) to discuss working from home and everything that entails.

I watched the entire season 1 of "The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance" on Netflix over a weekend... Rob did not. In this episode, I try to convince him to watch it while reviewing everything in the series from the puppetry, how much cg is used, what you should know going into it if you're a fan of the movie, how dark it really gets, etc... enjoy! #RubberOnionPodcast @RubberOnion everywhere...

It was a dark and stormy night we recorded this podcast. With thunder rumbling in the background we open this episode talking about the Kyoto Animation Studio attack. It's is a tough event to talk through, but we use the opportunity to share some of the great things that studio does for animators in Japan. After that it's on to the Tuca and Bertie cancellation and the Cats trailer (as well as a mini discussion about The Lion King 2019) #RubberOnionPodcast @RubberOnion everywhere...
