Animateys Podcast episodes
- Episode 28: Puella Magi Madoka MagicaA followup to our Sailor Moon episode, this week we focus on a modern take of the magical girl genre of anime: Madoka Magica! In a show which Nietzsche would fawn over like a little girl, the universe is meaningless, good things are really bad, and perhaps bad things aren't so bad? Girls in bouncy outfits with magic powers shouldn't make us think this much about the nature of our world!1 hr 16 min
- Episode 27: Aaahh!!! Real MonstersAahhhhhhhhhhhh! We're back with a show that will probably make you go "oh yea, I remember that one". We return to early Nickelodeon with the gross, gag-filled show that is Aaahh!!! Real Monsters. We review its inception, aesthetic and some different ideas present throughout. This weeks show is a bit shorter and slightly more tangential, but we hope you like it!1 hr 4 min
- Episode 26: Over The Garden WallFall is upon us, so we are getting in the spirit with some spooky fun! Over the Garden Wall is a beautiful miniseries that ran on Cartoon Network in 2014. We hope you love it as much as we did.1 hr 6 min

- Episode 24: Sailor Moon (DIC Version)In the name of the moon we will punish you! We begin our occasional forays into anime with anime that 90's kids would have seen on TV. One of our earliest introductions of anime was the one and only Sailor Moon. This week is mostly an introduction to some issues in anime, the magical girl genre, and a plot rundown of Sailor Moon. Next week we will be discussing themes and other more content-related issues as opposed to plot or characters.1 hr 18 min
- Episode 23: We Bare Bears Cont.We bare all our feelings about We Bare Bears this week on Animateys. This is episode 2 of 2 episodes about this amazingly wholesome and bright show in which 3 anthropomorphized bears trounce around the Bay Area having fun and confront Korean Spas, homelessness, and the horrors of late stage capitalism. This week's episode deals more with themes, messages, critiques in the show, character interactions and themes, and the way in which the show is a mirror of modern life, good and bad. We hope this episode isn't too over-bear-ing1 hr 12 min

Hello all you lovely people out there in Internet land! Welcome to Animateys, a podcast hosted by two people (friends) who insist on taking beloved childhood cartoons and mercilessly evaluating them (i.e. over-complicating them)! As the name implies, our primary interest is in cartoons and animation, particularly those on networks like Cartoon Network or Nickelodeon, the likes of which we both watched as kids. We re-watch a new cartoon each episode and discuss them in a laid-back style podcast with semi-regular episodes. In addition to general reviews and basic information about each show we watch we each bring a specific perspective to bear on the podcast. Paige focuses more on political and economic content and implications of each cartoon while Chris focuses his psychological knowledge to understand the implications of each cartoon, although we often cover both areas together. Tangents, jokes and puns, social commentary, popular culture, philosophy discussions of storytelling, and emotional rantings are also included! Oh, and Steven Universe. We invariably talk about Steven Universe almost every show (we just can't help it!)
We hope you enjoy what we put together for you and encourage you to follow us, comment, or join in on the discussion, and hopefully, to go back and re-watch some of these shows as well!
Episode Schedule: We try to put out an episode at the very least once a month, but our ideal schedule has episodes occurring bi-monthly. When we require 2 podcast episodes for one show, we often put out the 2nd episode one week from the date we record for the 1st episode. As you might expect, this means we are a bit sporadic in when we post, so just follow us to keep up to date. Episodes run from 45 minutes to 1 hour and 20 minutes, with 1 hour being our ideal length.
