Flaming Hedgehog

SEGMENT EPISODE! After such a long break from these you get 2 in a row, how about that! The theme this week is the broad range of animation and that means quality, quantity, and future projections! We talk about some animation news, answer an Audience Question, of course hit up some Rapid Fire segments, and I (Stephen) review Anomalisa on this episode while the written version and the segment by itself will be up tomorrow! We also have a talkback moment about Deadpool since I saw it last week and I make Rob jealous with my gloating. Finally, I want to give a shoutout to Mukpuddy who saw their new series "Barefoot Bandits" premiere this week, so congrats on that! Click the link on their name to check out the interview we did with them.
