More fun pictures from my LA adventure: Went to The Tam O’Shanter for the first time. The restaurant where Walt Disney ate a lot of beef and drank a lot of whiskey. Got the turkey plate and ate it with friends adjacent to Walt’s table in the fourth pic you see

Headed home after a 12 day vacation/work trip. Even got to see my lovely extended family this weekend. Check out my mom’s cool garden. Some cool podcast stuff from it will be revealed in the future, but it was a whirlwind of fun and wonderful memories seeing so many cool people!

Day 2 at Universal Hollywood, Toadstool Cafe took an hour, but the Lemon Squash soda little cake were cute (as were the decorations)

Also seen on the tour was the Warner Animation History wall that gives more representation to Tiny Toons than I would’ve expected. You can also buy a $900 cel from a forgettable ‘90s commercial of the Looney Tunes presenting merchandise (I passed on it)

Some more cool stuff from my Warner Bros Studio Tour: One room had a smattering of WB animation history, including old Hanna-Barbera, the Spielberg shows, DCAU, and Iron Giant. Even some vintage Toon Squad gear worn by Michael Jordan (though where’s Cartoon Network shows?)

Another fun LA day, went on the Warner Bros Studios tour for the first time. Lots of random Hollywood history I learned today. My favorite was that this random alley is in many films. It’s where Prince did the cover of Purple Rain *and* where Spider-Man got kissed upside down!

Had another great day on my LA vacation. Went to the Academy Museum, tons of cool stuff there. The temporary exhibit of John Waters is fantastic. Costumes from his films, some of his awards, even a cel from his iconic episode of The Simpsons!

Happy birthday to my wonderful husband! We celebrated with a trip to Disneyland for Pride Nite, which featured Clarabelle Cow as the most beloved character in the park!

We dug up lots of behind-the-scenes trivia for this podcast. For instance, learn how old Archie comics (like the ones below) inspired the beloved Ned Flanders ending

I just think Nintendo has a smart business strategy of making many video games instead of very few video games. Similarly, Nintendo has the business acumen to employ people to make games instead of laying off thousands of people to pad out spreadsheets

Not-E3 2024 scorecard: Sony: Does everyone still like Overwatch? Because we have several similar titles Xbox: We have a few studios we haven’t laid off yet. They make titles you wouldn’t mind on Game Pass Nintendo: Even though we’re saving stuff for Switch 2, we have lots of games you asked for

If I see several former colleagues in the games press start spontaneously complimenting another journalist, then I know there’s a new Twitter hate campaign against them. Happy I’m no longer part of that career where your low pay is coupled with spurious bigoted attacks

Saw Inside Out 2, a pretty alright sequel Light SPOILER: - - At the middle of the film, we visit Imagination. It’s essentially an unhappy animation studio being run by Anxiety, then they rediscover Joy. Maybe an intentional allegory for the current stressful era of Pixar/the industry🤔

And I don’t know, but I would guess that SNL used the Skull and Death Rock shirts because they didn’t have time to get permission from Metallica and AC/DC. Really only have Thursday and Friday to do it, need to get a yes from lots of musicians, may have been impossible.

Please let the spread of this sketch alert you to the fact that Beavis and Butt-Head is a brilliant satire. The new episodes and film on Paramount Plus are some of my favorite comedy of the last few years, everyone should watch the new stuff as well as rediscovering the original
