The 3 Geeks Podcast sits down with co-creator/star Skinner and co-creator/director Allen Cordell to talk about their wildly original series ART SHOW! WITH CAPTAIN SKINNER!.

This visually insane and creatively bold show follows the chaotic misadventures of a doomed PBS-style art program set in outer space, where Captain Skinner and his tiny crew—including a stop-motion animated Space Cowboy—attempt to create art while everything goes hilariously (and horrifically) wrong. From meteor showers to existential dread, no episode ever goes according to plan.

Blending over-the-top comedy with elements of body horror and vibrant, color-saturated visuals, ART SHOW! WITH CAPTAIN SKINNER! feels like a twisted love letter to classic art shows like The Joy of Painting, but with a chaotic sci-fi edge. Across 10 episodes, each around 15 minutes long, the series delivers a unique mix of creativity, absurdity, and unforgettable imagery.

In this interview, we discuss the inspiration behind the show, balancing art and chaos, the creative process, and what makes this series stand out in today's crowded indie landscape.
