Ten Years of Tooncast and the AfterToons Future

You're listening to the GeekCast Radio Network!

Ha -cha -cha -cha -cha! When the girls and I

are not saving the world, we listen to GeekCast!

I go, go, go, go, go, go, while listening to

GeekCast! Beyond good, beyond evil, beyond your

wildest imagination! Hello folks, TFG1Mike here.

The intro you just heard will obviously change

as we go forward with the all -new Tooncast.

Toons all the time, Toons in the Afternoons,

After Toons, all that good stuff. I just had

to throw something together really quick, and

I wanted to use some of the classic Tooncast

promos that Tara Strong, Larry Kenny, and a few

others had given us over the years. Without any

further ado... Here's Tooncast episode 230. Hello

and welcome to Tooncast. We're all Toons all

the time. I am of course TFJU and Mike. This

is episode 230 of Tooncast thankfully through

the magical... mythology or mathology or whatever

you want to call it. Do you say math? Yes, I

said math. I was going to call myself the tune

master, but that's already taken, so. Yeah, that's

already taken. And honestly, he's... I've kind

of told him about what we're endeavoring to do

that we will reveal later, but it's going to

blow his mind, because if he can't keep up with

Pogs, he ain't gonna be able to keep up with

Tooncast, all Toons all the time. Yes, Optimus

Solo is here, the one and only. We are returning

to Tooncast. We're not sure how soon that's going

to be. I am about three or four weeks just removed

from brain surgery. Basically, I found out that

when I was born, I was born with large ventricles

in the front, and I have no corpus column. The

corpus column is the thing between the two hemispheres

in your brain. It's kind of like a Christmas

tree stand, I guess. I don't know. I'm not sure.

But basically, I was not born with that. So there's

that. Basically, what they had to do is they

had to drain a... We all have fluid on our brains.

Well, I had excess fluid. and I had to drain

all that off because for the last six months

to a year I was having so many debilitating headaches

like to the point of there was one time I was

sitting here writing one of my daily blog posts

for this year even though I pretty much stopped

doing the daily blog thing where I had to actually

stop what I was writing save it go lay down in

a dark room because my head hurt so much from

just whatever from having all this fluid on my

brain the surgery went well I'm feeling much

better I've had exactly one headache like I had

before since the surgery and the doctors know

about it but generally I'm fairly pain -free

at least in my head anyway the rest of my body

is another story for another day so yeah you're

always a pain in my ass well yeah likewise Let's

get all these things recorded March Madness Buffalo

Wild Wings man, whatever But yes tune cast years

ago. Uh -huh tune cast. We are coming back You

know the original show was Set to be a two -year

show and it was a two -year show. We went through

a hundred episodes. We had awesome interviews

from various people Tara Strong Maurice LaMarche

Rob Paulson I can't think of everybody else off

the top of my head right now. 100 cartoon episodes,

varying things, basically overall series reviews,

and then in 2011 I started Tooncast Beyond kind

of doing the same thing except with more modern

stuff because the whole point when you and I

originally came up with Tooncast was anything

from Looney Tunes era to 1999. You know, kind

of 1999 was kind of the cutoff year for the original

Tunecast and I'm like, hey, well, this is ending,

what can I start up now? And let's do more modern

stuff. And we did a bunch of the DC animated

original movies. We did a bunch of other things.

We even brought in DeLorean Times to take it

back to the original Tunecast with like Mega

Man and Wacky Races and all that kind of stuff.

And it's been... 10 years to the day, June 1st,

2019, June 1st, 2009. Uh, not only is June 1st

the anniversary of Tooncast, it is the 10 -year

anniversary of the GeekCast for Radio Network.

Uh, I'll probably link in the post, uh, our year

9 history thing that we did, because we're probably

not gonna be doing a year 10 episode for GCR

yet, because not only do I have stuff going on,

you have stuff going on, Steve is moving from

Michigan to Colorado for work and to have a whole

new life with him and his family, his wife, his

kids, all that stuff. So there's a lot of stuff

going on right now at the Geekcast Radio Network.

Pretty much The Pull Bag is the only podcast

that is consistently running weekly at this point.

Yeah, if you break it down, Steve's changed jobs.

He's changed locations multiple times. As far

as that goes, you've changed locations, gotten

married, and are going to change locations again,

had brain surgery. I got married. Dan had a second

child just this last week. You know it's been

everything's been up in the air because one of

the four of us is gonna be on every Almost every

podcast that's put out from the network so since

all four of us have had stuff going on It's all

been kind of a little bit Crazy very very to

say the least It's been a wild 10 year ride for

this show yeah, and for those That have not been

listening the whole time since it has been around

for many many years You know you might just be

picking it up now, and you know be wondering

what's in the back catalog obviously you can

search most of that through your Podcast apps

and iTunes etc, but I think it'd be fun to kind

of go through a little bit of what we did Both

in classic and beyond just to give people I know

you Mentioned some of them, but just go a little

bit more in depth of what kind of stuff you can

find in the back catalog Different features and

some different spotlights and things of that

nature. I got it all pulled up here It started

honestly just to kind of give you guys a little

bit of inside Baseball, I guess it started with

just Mike and I kind of Using some of our favorite

cartoons that we wanted to discuss So that's

what you get a lot in that first like 20 episodes

where we're talking about like the Animaniacs

and Tiny Toons and then The cats and you know,

there's a he big he man episode. There's a you

know, hey Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Wait

a minute. I am very proud of myself because the

big Episode 10 of tooncast has been missing for

probably half of the last 10 years and I finally

Found it. I finally got it back and it is finally

online the whole four hours is finally online

again, so Yeah, so it's finally back there. So

that's kind of what the first like 20 or so episodes

were then we started throwing in Episode 22,

I believe was our first of the Charlie Brown

type episode great pumpkin Yeah with his different

specials and that kind of has been scattered

throughout the rest of tune cast I think we've

covered, you know at least a half a dozen of

those great pumpkin Thanksgiving Christmas Easter

Valentine's Day, yep. Yeah, so we covered those

throughout. We did our first movie review on

episode 24 of the original Toon Frames Garage

Rabbit. And then we had our first spotlight,

which was, we kind of broke this into two different

sections, but we did our first half of the Disney

spotlight, where we were covering Disney animated

movies, stuff like Sleeping Beauty, Snow White,

Aladdin Jungle Book, et cetera. We did that in

two chunks, so you see a bunch of those. Kind

of the 20s and 30s, and then we'd jump into them

again in the 80s for those episodes So that was

fun. That was a good look back at some of those

for us some That we had just Hadn't watched since

we were kids some that we've watched multiple

times But it was a good kind of way to go through

one after the other and kind of see how they

all stack up I remember when we originally did

it that You and I kind of went back and forth

like that's my favorite. Well. That's my favorite.

Well. That's my favorite Well, that's my you

know so the first You know 31 through 34 We're

kind of like our favorites like you obviously

I'm not saying this is not my favorite It is

obviously but like we both love Aladdin I think

one of your choices was the jungle book and then

I chose sword in the stone and Oliver and company

and then when we went to it later We said hey,

let's just do it in release order or whatever

ones were missing or whatever classic rights

that we want to talk about We'll do it in the

order that they were theatrically released. One

of the big things about Tooncast is our very

first interview was none other than Mr. Larry

Kenny. When I'm not rooting for the earth of

mum -raws evil, I'm enjoying Tooncast with the

other Thundercats. Yeah, from Thundercats fame,

so that was definitely a big deal and a lot of

fun. Mike mentioned some of the other interviews

we did along the way. Tara strong we also got

into a spying between 34 and 35 There are Paulson

yeah, Rob Paulson Reese Lamar sling I mentioned

earlier good. What is that? Neil Ross I think

was in there somewhere Neil Ross was actually

the Still connected some way shape or form. Yeah

Yeah, but yeah, anyways after that we kind of

went into a mini Hanna Barbera spotlight We thought

that would be fun, and I did enjoy that a lot

so we got to go through and this is episode 40

through about 47 with one Charlie Brown episode

in there, but we got to cover some of the classics

like Huckleberry Hound Yogi Bear Hong Kong Fooey

Captain Caveman The type of stuff so that was

a lot of fun to go through obviously there's

there's more Hanna Barbera out there But we kind

of pick and choose some of our favorites are

some of the ones we were interested in to see

if they stood Up or whatnot, so that was a good

time. You did a couple episodes on sonic So we

went at that point we kind of went back into

some of the ones that kind of each pick and stuff

That we liked so you had your sonic stuff. I

got to throw in some Care Bears and inspector

gadget. I think in there. Yep. We did some gummy

bears parents and bears Swat cats and Steve was

big on that one So we just kind of a variety

of stuff that we just kind of liked and we kind

of did that through the rest of You know basically

50 through almost 80 until we went into that

Disney spotlight again Yeah, and then it kind

of you took a turn into the DC Yeah, the DC universe

yeah We had you know we kind of finished off

the the Disney thing with you know or is to cats

and little mermaid Lion King Then we did top

cat recess and then episode 93 Batman the animated

series Oh crap. Episode 94 is missing off of

Spreaker. I'll have to add that back in. Damn

it. Superman the Animated Series. Superman the

Animated Series. 95 was Batman Beyond. Oh, it's

here. It's mis -dated. What the hell? Anyway.

We had Zeta Project Static Shock. Justice League.

Yup. Justice League. Justice League Unlimited.

Also had an interview, our first interview, that

was back when Terra was still doing stuff with

us and eventually we will get back to doing stuff

with Terra at some point. All of our lives have

changed so much so reconnecting... will be good

but it it's it's hard scheduling stuff these

days we interviewed jason marsden uh... mainly

because at the time we were doing the dc stuff

and he was the voice of gear in static shock

but obviously jason marsden has been Many other

characters in many other things obviously most

famously Max goof the son of goofy Obviously,

you know, he was on boy meets world as as Eric's

best friend kind of a thing And then, you know,

we had Tara strong return talking about playing

Harley Quinn We had episode 100 which was a look

back which was obviously two years after we initially

started more interview That's kind of the identity

of the original Tooncast. So we picked a lot

of old cartoons. A couple more interviews had

happened, like Patrick Fraley and John Semper

Jr. Let's see, what else? I don't know. Other

things like we had. I think we had two interviews

with Neil Ross. And we finally got, after years

and years and years, it took... Almost nine of

the ten years for us to finally get an interview

with Tom Ruger. So we got that You know, I think

was it 20 it was around 2016 where I'm like hmm

Everyone always complains about tooncast episode

30 because you know the times were, you know,

difficult back then and having to record off

of cell phones and things like that. Everyone

always complains about that audio in the holiday

show, and I'm like, hmm, how can we fix this?

Well, here's 25 days of Toon Christmas. Yeah,

that comes a little bit later. Well, yeah. You're

jumping ahead, sir. Well, you know. But yeah,

the identity of the original Tooncast, you know,

it was old cartoons that were our favorites.

We had the Disney spotlight, the Charlie Brown

stuff. The Hannah Barbera spotlight and then

the DC was kind of a wraparound So that's kind

of how we connected the old to cast with to cast

beyond because you had covered some of the ones

that predated Yeah, and then it's just beyond

covered some of the ones that have come since

then so that's kind of how we opened up to cast

beyond you did like a 2015 episode arc of more

DC See stuff so yeah, that was kind of the transition

in to to cast beyond I know you had some some

special co -host with you for those episodes

since I'm not a the animated person. Who all

was with you on those episodes? A number of people.

I couldn't even tell you. I do know for the...

JT probably was in there for some reason. Oh

yeah, JT. There's a couple of famous moments

in Tooncast Beyond, actually. But episode one

was the superhero squad show, which is the Marvel

show. That was the first and only time Chuck

Dog 1999 was on Tunecast. We obviously interviewed

Tom Kenny, voice of SpongeBob. We interviewed

Kristy Marks. I think that was our second time.

I don't know. We've interviewed Kristy like three

or four times. During this time there was I think

it was the all -star Superman review There was

an outtake that is Like I think I still have

it or Steve still has or whatever TV's mr. Neal

his buddy Ben Ben Carver the host and also friends

with JT Ben is a talker more than either one

of us and I I mean my wife tells me all the time

and everyone tells I like I talk talk talk this

guy just is a is a freight train when he's talking

and I just went I it's it's not on any episode

I cut it out obviously but I just went off on

this guy but I remember like part of the all

-star Superman episode was one of the outtakes

was oh my god look at all -star Superman what

is that an acronym to oh my god that movie is

ass So there's that. We did the one special episode

covering Duck Dodgers, the green loon turn, where

Kevin Smith was held Jordan in Duck Dodgers.

Well, like you said, Batman year one, we started

doing glory in time stuff with Mega Man and Reboot

and Fleischer, Superman and... All of that. Yeah,

the first thing got into more comic stuff. Yeah.

Oh, yeah Yeah, it was it was heavy comic cartoon

stuff all the way up until episode 30. Yeah,

the first basically 35 because We're kind of

doing seasons at that point. So that season for

Yeah, her comic book So the first 35 episodes

are all comic book related with a few DeLorean

times thrown in there To break it up a little

bit and connect it back to the old one and then

you got into a new season after that which was

It was the death of me like I didn't want to

do a tune cast ever again after that like he

was covering like The for Shrek movies are They're

not the best, but they're okay, but you get into

like you said chicken run and shark tail and

Madagascar and and over the edge b -movie wasn't

that bad but you know you get into that kind

of stuff kung fu panda how to train your dragon

like monsters vs aliens and megamind like all

that during this time we had an interview with

josh keaton uh... you and i did uh... delorean

time on mysterious cities of gold which everybody

apparently except me absolutely loves that show

again they come back out of the reboot of that

so that's crazy my favorite part of the dream

work season was the delorean times that mysterious

is a gold the raccoons denver the last dinosaur

get along in adventures a little koala Oh, Adventures

of Little Koala. What an outtake that was. That's

on YouTube. After the DreamWorks season, that's

when you guys did your spotlight on the... The

animation direction with TV's Mr. Neil and I.

We covered... We started with Walt Disney. We

went to Bob Clampett, Tex Avery, Fritz Freeling,

Robert McKimson, Bill Melendez, The Fleishers,

Walter Lanson... War oob eye works hannah and

barbara obviously mel blank now animation direction

mel blank okay? Yes, mel wasn't an animation

director, but mel blank was the voice of animation

in that era pretty much like right very rarely

Did you ever see any other voice the way his

deal was? You know like any time you hear June

foray as as which hazel or whatever you don't

see her name You just don't cuz mel cut that

really lucrative deal thing. Chuck Jones. During

this time, I interviewed John Semper Jr. for

20 years with Spider -Man the Animated Series.

And then we had episode 58. Oh, good. Let it

go. Covered Frozen, one of the best Disney movies

of the last decade. No. Yeah. And then we took

an interesting turn. That's when we started sprinkling

in or you started sprinkling in a different way

to do to cast where we were looking at entire

seasons at a time So that's where we got like

Gravity Falls and TMNT 2003 Dodgers tiny tunes.

He did some X -Men spider -man strip. Arrela

even got in there somehow So that was a new direction

where we were looking At like entire seasons

in one episode kind of our thoughts on season

one or our thoughts on season two, etc so kind

of shaped a little bit of kind of the Look into

the future in a way Hey, I guess so to speak

but we're ever trying to evolve how we look at

the cartoons and how we cover them and different

Ways to do it to keep things fresh so that's

kind of gonna be key as we kind of move forward

How did you enjoy all those season looks I? Enjoyed

them I thought it was more freeing because I

could just say what my favorite episodes were

why I liked that episode as a favorite episode

kind of thing and again It was a way to look

at the overall without looking at like ten seasons

of TMNT 87 In one in one episode which we had

already done kind of a thing Yeah, cuz we had

had those just quick overviews which are just

a snapshot of stuff like we might have watched

You know three four five of six episodes sometimes

more if we had time and if we had the interest

to you know We watched a variety of episodes,

but we was just in a quick overview of the series

overall And then obviously we have our full honor

View shows that we were doing at the time where

we go episode by episode through stuff like the

different transformer series and the different

He -Man series etc mask Comes to mind so we've

done Both and this is kind of a hybrid of that

where we don't go episode by episode and have

a whole drawn out like 20 episode Podcasts or

30 episode podcasts on just a show but it's more

than just the overview Yeah, so it was kind of

an in -depth look at what season so kind of a

maybe a little best of both worlds So to speak.

Yep Kind of like a snapshot. I mean, really.

You know, you look at it in a snapshot kind of

way of, hey, this is just season one. This is

what happens in season one. And this is why we

like certain things about season one. This is

where we feel that certain things should improve

with... It takes a little more work. It takes

a little bit more work on our part to watch a

whole season versus just a couple episodes, but

not as much work as watching the entire series.

So it's kind of, like I said, a middle ground

there. And that's when you got into, it was holiday

time. So that's when you tried to redo your,

your holiday and did your 25 days of Christmas.

Yeah. And it's coming, it's coming back. Huge

ideas. Oh yeah. Well, okay. So when I originally

had this idea, I looked everywhere. I looked

at behindthevoiceactors .com. I looked at IMDB.

I looked at Wikipedia. I looked at every single

thing I could find. that had every single series

American animation what I mean by that is it

was released here in America like the Simpsons

or like Alvin and the Chipmunks or you know you

know oh day seven of 25 days of Christmas the

only time Ren and Stimpy will ever be covered

on Tooncast uh... you know doug's christmas powerpuff

girls christmas you know it just whatever had

a christmas episode it wasn't about oh does this

show have a whole season of christmas not just

one episode we did a bunch of that stuff we did

a you know we we even back into like the flintstone

christmas carol we did a wonderful tiny tunes

christmas uh... we do classic stuff like obviously

how the grinch stole christmas grandma and my

reindeer uh... frosty snowman rudolph the red

-nosed reindeer that kind of stuff as well um...

actually when i made that that list i got fifty

days so there's still going to be another twenty

five days at some point one of these years i

don't know when because you want to go to work

that's a lot of work that's daily podcasting

even though we recorded we pre -recorded most

of that stuff it's still getting it ready to

air each frigging day of the week for twenty

five days Yeah, that's a lot. So then we kind

of finished up Tooncast Beyond with a few more

looks at different seasons and things of that

nature as we were kind of plotting our way to

the future To the future and the final episode

of Tooncast Beyond is back to the future the

animated series Which is a really fun interesting

series that Doesn't really stand this test of

time sadly. I mean, it's a it's a good series,

but I don't know. I wish there was more story

driven, like, instead of episode of the week

kind of thing. I wish it was more, like, you

know, story driven kind of things. But, you know,

it was done back, you know, during Back to the

Future and all of that and whatever. Yeah. And

that kind of leads us to where we are today.

Where we are today. And oh my God, you're going

to think we're nuts, folks. We are Well, that's

true involved That's how we got ourselves to

this spot. Uh -huh. Yeah Actually too much Thinking

that wasn't no thinking it was too much thinking.

Yeah, so let me just pull this up here Here's

here's the thing guys before Mike even starts

What we've learned in the last ten years is that

if Mike and I ever are allowed to actually have

free time due to life circumstances or Or whatever

the case may be and we happen to find ourselves

You know on Skype or on Facebook messenger or

whatever ways we communicate Okay, depending

on what year it is If we find ourselves together

and we start brainstorming or shooting ideas

off of each other crazy stuff ensues Extremely

crazy stuff. So that is a true statement So Basically

There's gonna be tune cast episodes five days

a week Eventually, eventually whether that starts

now or next year or whatever, but eventually

there's basically You know, I'm I've hashtagged

it after tunes because they're going to air every

afternoon at I think to Eastern Sometime after

12 p .m. And how we're going to do this folks

good I just don't say the idea here is to a couple

things number one obviously as we've just mentioned

we've done a Lot of series where we've covered

episode by episode, you know, we did the mask

mayhem. We've done a gazillion years on he man

where we've gone through all the different series

of their Mike and some other co -hosts and sometimes

me as a special guest have gone through a lot

of the transformer series, etc And what happens

now that we're having life? And whatnot is that

trying to pull off what we used to do Which is

each do like three four or five podcasts at the

same time It is challenging It's very challenging,

so there are not going to be any more individual

review shows for cartoons. It's all going to

be here on Tooncast. Right, so we found a way

to kind of combine the best of both worlds where

we'll be able to do that on Tooncast and we won't

necessarily be locked into, you know, one show.

Only we can bounce around and do multiple shows

covering them episode by episode having some

that maybe we look at more of just an overview

Maybe have some special episodes where we look

at some The animated movies based on those cartoon

shows that came down come came out over the years

So we'll have some flexibility, but it's kind

of the best of both worlds where we can kind

of Do those in -depth looks but give people a

variety of different shows to look at instead

of just the one for an extended period of time

so then and we might not start right away with

All five days of the week having episodes, but

that is what we will work towards Yes, exactly

the initial full week of tunes series I've been

wanting to do this since I I don't even know

So back when we were doing separate review shows

because my thinking was oh every show has to

have its own thing because that way on iTunes

and wherever people can leave each show a review

so We are gonna go back to all of the Turtles

cartoons, 87, 03, and 2012. I am fairly certain

we're not gonna cover the current rise of the

TMNT because that's just not directed at us.

I don't want to give too many negative things

off here, but basically... 8703 in 2012, or what's

going to be covered under this, and I've been

wanting to call it this forever. It's going to

be called Dining on Turtle Soup, because that

was what Shredder wanted to do all the time in

87. So that takes care of the turtles. Then we're

going to have Hawk Haven, which is Silverhawks.

Then we're going to have Eye of Thundera, which

is Thundercats. Central Organization of Podcast

Specialists, which will be COPS. And then Real

American Podcast, we're going to rap about G

.I. Joe. And we're going to have a bunch of other

things as well. So what these individual things

within Tooncast are going to do is, each day

we're going to take a look at five episodes,

a full week of cartoons, Monday through Friday.

So with Thundercats, the first five episodes

of season one in one podcast. Episode. Yeah.

Yeah. one week in one daily podcast, so You've

got listed down here the in these may or may

not change, but basically like Fighting crime

Fridays for cops so we'll release the cops episodes

on Fridays TMNT Tuesdays with the Turtles will

release the Turtles Podcast on on Tuesdays thunder

thunder Thursdays on Thundera we haven't figured

out for for Silverhawks or G .I. Joe yet, but

You know in the meantime starting off after this

episode of the show We've got Monday Masters

with the 2002 series that we're doing on Powers

of Grayskull Which will be syndicated on over

here to Tooncast as well to get the Tooncast

listeners listening to the last you know seven

years of the new adventures of P -Man And to

give the Pogs listeners something to listen to

after we're done with Pogs. That's right absolutely

yeah it's gonna be one wild ride and right now

there are no plans to do any animated movies

or anything like that because that would just

be too much no Talking about when I mentioned

animated movies. I'm talking about like the you

know, like when we're talking about GI Joe Right,

right. Yeah Joe the movie or something like oh,

yeah No, no, but what I'm saying is like, you

know Because we're doing this by season with

five episodes per podcast, right? Like originally

I wanted to do like episode 248 like instead

of doing silverhawks season one episode sixteen

to twenty eight which is two forty seven two

forty eight have something like despicable me

three or despicable me one and two or whatever

just you know have a movie and then it like a

just a regular old episode we're not doing that

for a while because we want to get through this

new format we want to get through the series

uh... kind of thing uh... I already tell you

folks I'm actually gonna change it right now

with how life is going we're probably not gonna

get to the second 25 days of Tooncast Christmas

until next year 2020 because there's just so

much going on with my wife and I and and just

just everything else I mean we're good and all

that as far as relationship and everything else

but just life is kind of kicking our ass right

now but uh... but yeah i mean that's essentially

what to cast all tunes all the time is going

to be it's going to be you know a new way to

look at the cartoons it's going to be this hopefully

interesting new thing hopefully we don't overload

people with you know daily episodes and they're

not gonna start out daily right away um they're

just not there's just no way we can because it

probably won a week for a little while then eventually

two a week and then eventually three a week and

then yeah keep going yep absolutely there's a

lot to cover if you have specifics that you're

dying for us to cover we can't guarantee we'll

cover it but you can let us know uh give us your

feedback on cartoons that you'd really love to

see us talk about but we have the first batch

definitely picked out Already, but we might be

up for at least listening to some feedback as

far as what we might cover down the line in the

future But we have a lot of stuff that we can

hit right now. So we got a lot of cartoons Jotted

down that would that could be potential fillers

that once we finish the first round. So Yep,

absolutely and it's it's gonna be a journey folks

and hopefully everyone sticks with us with this

because according to Steve tune cast ATTF and

all things Transformers and the TFG1 podcast

are, Tooncast is obviously at the forefront,

the most listened to podcasts on GeekCast Radio

Network. So we're giving you more content. What?

Nothing. What'd you say? Especially when I'm

the co -host. Right. You know, so we're gonna

be giving you more content, folks. We're gonna

just overload you and we're gonna overload ourselves

and who the hell knows where this is gonna go.

It's just gonna be one giant animated adventure.

Might be a giant animated explosion. Yep. Hey,

as long as we don't have to go to Vegas and watch

Miles Mayhem try to... steel gold animation explosions

aren't too bad though because you have to clean

them up very true very i don't think there's

room not yet i mean there's there's a lot of

things you can get arrested for these days but

i don't think donald trump is his main animation

explosions illegal just yet not yet but there's

a lot of stuff we could cover so keep your eyes

peeled you know we got the we got eighty Action

shows there could be some some Disney afternoon

shows there could be some Warner Brothers stuff

We haven't gotten to yet who knows of Scooby

-Doo or Garfield eventually Make some appearances.

There's Hannah Barbera stuff. We haven't touched

so I mean there's the Possibilities are endless

so you never know where we're gonna go and I

know I've been teasing this for years Just like

I've been teasing the TFG to podcast for years

Like Kevin just mentioned about Disney afternoon

We may do that in this new format with five days

a week on certain, like originally I was just

going to do each season of each of those shows,

like Darkwing Duck and Tailspin and all that.

Well, we may apply it to, depending on how many

episodes there are for each season of each show,

we may apply that to this new format as well.

So basically you could have, you know, Disney

Afternoon for six months. You never know. however

long it ends up taking us to get these done.

Like we said, it's going to be a fun new way

for us and for the listeners and for everybody

to re -explore these cartoons in a way that we

haven't done before. Absolutely. And I view it

kind of like that. That's why I was interested

in doing this in the first place, because there's

a lot of people that have cartoons from their

childhood sitting on... their DVD shelves or

you know, whatever and You know are looking for

a reason to watch one or looking for a reason

to to put it in or would like to put it in but

then Don't because there's nobody to share that

with well, we're kind of that outlet for you

guys We can share it with you. We can talk about

it You can watch them and then listen to us talk

about it or vice versa and it can kind of be

an experience for everybody and give you a reason

to go bust those old shows and relive some of

your childhood Exactly Absolutely. I think that's

going to do it for us here on Tooncast episode

230. This was our special announcement of what's

already happened, a look back, and it's also

a look ahead for Tooncast, all Toons, all the

time, here on the Geekcast Radio Network. You

can find me online at TF2 and Mike. You can follow

at GCR and Tooncast or even at Tooncast Beyond,

even though Tooncast Beyond is essentially retired

at this point. But at GCR and Tooncast is the

show, Twitter at Geekcast Radio is the network,

Twitter, what is your Twitter, sir? at optimus

solo uh... uh... you might have a reason well

i forgot with them catchphrase to the show was

given done so long i don't want to say keep watching

your tunes or whatever because that's and i i

don't like that and i and i don't want to and

i don't want to say we watch these cartoons you

don't have to because that's an old that uh...

that guy with the glasses bit and that doesn't

apply to this because we want you to watch these

well obviously hello um yeah we'll figure out

a catchphrase so until next time we will catch

you around in the after tunes You're gonna hit

me again, are you now he ought to know better

than that You would not believe what I've been

through tonight I feel fresh healthy. It's terrible.

Where's the kaboom? There was supposed to be

an earth -shattering kaboom
