    Cartoon Time Machine Episode 220

    Katie has asked Scarlett to watch a lot of international animated films, but this one from the same team that brought you “Fantastic Planet” is…hmmm. Not “Fantastic Planet.” Tune in as the Ani-Mates discuss “Gandahar,” ask big questions like "what is Christopher Plummer doing here", and try to figure out just what exactly is going on here and why the Amazon subtitles are so very bad.

    Cartoon Time Machine Episode 219

    On this positively cracking episode of Cartoon Time Machine, the Ani-Mates discuss the newest Wallace & Gromit film, “Vengeance Most Fowl.” Feathers McGraw is back and out for revenge! Can our plucky claymation heroes save the day once more? Or, more accurately, will that job fall entirely on the long-suffering Gromit? Ah, it feels like coming home… if your home was the British countryside rendered entirely in modeling clay.

    Cartoon Time Machine Episode 218

    It’s time for another Cartoon Clash, where we pit some of our favorite animated characters against each other in a 1v1 tournament to see which one is the ultimate champion. Will Scarlett actually win one of these? Or has Katie come up with another ludicrously OP character to take home the champion’s belt? We don’t actually have a belt, it’s theoretical. Just like Scarlett’s chances of winning.

    Cartoon Time Machine Episode 216

    We’re starting off 2025 right by playing our “Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon” style game where we click through IMDb until we connect a random animated series with a specific prolific voice actor. This time, we’re hunting for Eric Bauza, frequent Looney Tunes star and general man-about-town of animation.

    Cartoon Time Machine Episode 213

    To celebrate the holiday season, the Ani-Mates are tapping into one of the best parts of this time of year: the music! Unfortunately, many classic holiday songs don’t have animated specials to go with them. Katie and Scarlett are here to change that with their pitches to create the next “Rudolph” or “Frosty the Snowman.” Which songs deserve their day in the cartoon spotlight? Find out on this week’s episode of Cartoon Time Machine!
