Heavy Metal w/ Kyle Shutt

Episode 8! I JUST COULDN'T STAY AWAY. CURSE YOUR ROCKIN' TITS! We cover an animated feature length film for the first time! And what better way to pop that cherry than with 1981's boob and gore-fest Heavy Metal. And if that's not brutal enough, we have Kyle Shutt (The High Way, The Sword) along for the ride in our space Corvette. We cover his history with all things nerdy and heavy, plus a whole lot more. You can find Kyle's podcast and tunes here: https://linktr.ee/kyleshutt Theme music: Dance ...

Beavis and Butthead/The Ren and Stimpy Show

Episode 7! NO SIR, I DON'T LIKE IT! I mean, what is there to say? We take a trip back to Highland (and wherever Ren and Stimpy are from) to breakdown what made two weird cartoons from the 90's become foundations for a generation of kids' personalities for years to come. Make some Powdered Toast, grab your LOG(TM) and put on some heavy metal. Fire is cool. Just a small content warning, some themes surrounding abuse are mentioned in this episode.

Count Duckula/The Trapdoor

Episode 6! BERK! FEEEEEED ME! In this lost Halloween-themed episode that we accidentally dropped down the trap door in the floor, we cover overworked blue idiots, vegetarian vampires and how everyone is just ripping off Thriller.

Harvey Birdman/Metalocalypse

Episode 5! DID YOU GET THAT THING I SENT YA?! Taking a slight detour to a future beyond our childhoods (but unlike the dystopian Jetson's one), we are going over the two greatest Adult Swim cartoons, beloved by stoners worldwide. Metal elitism, nonsensical legal jargon and running gags galore. Beeoop!

X-Men/Spiderman (1994) w/ Lucie Bee

Episode 4! CYCLOPS IS A WHINY LITTLE BITCH! We discuss the greatest gong in TV theme history and a theme song that's trying so hard to be cool it hurts.

The Tick/Earthworm Jim

Episode 3! WE CAN BE WINNERS IF YOU ONLY SING ALONG! Take a trip to absurdity city with giant worm abominations against nature, scatting mothmen, mystical egg beaters and a guy who has a chair as a face.

Captain Planet/Widget The World Watcher

Episode 2! NATURE CALLED AND WE DIDN'T CARE! Two of the most cringe-worthy environmental focused shows of the early 90's go under our microscope. We all know which show was the bigger hit, but the results of who has the better theme song may surprise you. Theme music: Dance Rocket by Jessie Spillane, used with permission CC 4.0.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles/Defenders Of The Earth

Episode 1! A shaky start but things can only get better! We discuss possibly the biggest cartoon franchise of it's time, and another one that, well, has it's cult following perhaps? But most importantly, both theme songs are deliciously cheesy and catchy. Theme music: Dance Rocket by Jessie Spillane, used with permission CC 4.0.
