Mike Chilton ,

I’ve been listening to an episode every day on my walk to work, it’s awesme

Appalachiaaan ,

Y’all get a gold star.

I’ve been looking for something like this my entire life. Thank you so much for providing this information and being so warm and entertaining at the same time. I’ll be recommending this show to my friends!

ARN230 ,

I didn’t know I needed this!

Thank you for creating this space for Black folks. Animation is a huge part of the human-storytelling experience and it’s nice to hear about Black characters, shows, and creatives in a way that removes us from BEING a genre/ category, and highlights that Black and brown people are a major part of AND contributer to the animation world. I love laughing with you both and look forward to more! #rooting ✊🏽
