Happy Belated Pride Month Everybody!

Our apologies, we'll have more Pride-centric contact coming in the next few weeks. For the time being, here is a soft-copaganda show that probably responsible for many a bisexual awakening. A super team of bulky emergency responders who have no known jurisdiction, no oversight, and seemingly no system of checks and balances to curtail their authority. It's the Rescue Heroes, and safety is their game all across the globe.

Episode covered for the podcast is Episode 18 "High Anxiety/Canyon Catastrophe." Written by Howard Nemetz and Melissa Mortimer, respectively. Credited directors Brian Lee, Harry Rasmussen, and Ken Stephenson. Original airdate August 18th, 2001.

Once again, we make use of the incredible archival resource of Canadian animation that is the National Film Board of Canada for another cursed double bill. A stop-motion raucous bug orgy and a storybook Inuit creation song. What do they have in common? Not much.

Films covered for the podcast are Martin Barry's Juke-Bar (1989) and Germaine Arnattaujuq, Neil Christopher & Louise Flaherty's Arctic Song (2022).

We once again find ourselves drifting aimlessly through the parallel dimension known as the Delta State. A paranoid state of delusion that decides the fate for all humankind if not for a group of amnesiac twenty-something Montreal hipsters. We felt it was only right to return to a one of a kind Canadian production we will never see on television again because we just appreciate that it exists so much.

Episode covered for the podcast was Episode 3 "Case Study." Written by Vincent Bonjour and directed by Gilles Cazaux. Original airdate Sept, 19, 2004.

Straight off the heels of our federal election which has left a small contingency of conservative voters in Alberta hoping for a secession, we are covering a film which explores the ramifications of a province seeking sovereignty and the broader effects of the temperament of its population. In short, it leaves us all feeling like divorced alcoholics drying out at a fishing cabin with our ex-spouse. It's Félix Dufour-Laperrière's gorgeously realized ink and paint drama Ville Neuve (2018).

In a trying time where PBS could be defunded and Nelvana go under, we felt it was necessary to tackle a big hitter that served as a cornerstone for the domination of educational television in the 90s. It's The Magic School Bus - an all time classic that many do not realize is technically Canadian (the best kind of Canadian). Also, some mildly depressing Canadian federal election chatter because it is actually relevant for once!

Episode covered for the podcast was episode 8 "In the Haunted House." Written by John May, Kristin Laskas Martin & Jocelyn Stevenson. Directed by Lawrence Jacobs. Original airdate October 29, 1994.

High school can be a bit of a pain. Especially when you're a horny, pale, sarcastic teenager besieged by criminal lust and pursued by rabid squirrels. Such are the many trials and tribulations of the titular protagonist in Fred's Head - an acerbic teen comedy that balances the zany with a level-headed approach to the lifestyles of teenagers. Chris loved it. Sylvie liked it.

Episode covered for the podcast was episode 7 "Rodent Terror." Written by Malorie Nault-Cousineau, directed by Benoit Godbout and Sylvain Lavoie, and storyboarded by Karine Charlebois. Original airdate February 17, 2008.

And here we find ourselves at the bottom of the barrel once more. A shoddily slapped together series by way of Montreal's Cinegroupe produced to coincide with the release of a high-profile Disney feature film. The era of the mockbuster is most certainly passed, but we will always have those VHS memories of cheap garbage like The Magical Adventures of Quasimodo.

Episode covered for the podcast was Episode 20 "The Music Maker." Written by Lyle Slack and directed by Bahram Rohani. Unknown airdate.

It's time to A.M.P. it up!!! Remember back in the 2000s when it felt like extreme sports was the be-all end-all of popular culture and plenty of things from the past were being retrofitted with a more edgy and radical look for the new generation? Well, one series/extended toy commercial by Mainframe Entertainment took it to such tubular heights that it practically killed the entire fad. It's ACTION MAN!!

Sorry for the delay! We are going to blame the tariffs because why not.

We have returned to the realm of Canadian dubbed anime with a fabulous punk rock classic of growing up and heartbreak between young women who meet by happenstance. Ai Yazawa's NANA has endured in popularity since it's premiere in 2006, and part of that enduring popularity has to do with the pitch perfect dub produced by our friends at Ocean Productions.

Episode covered for the podcast was Episode 1 "Prologue: Nana K. and Nana O." Written by Tomoko Konparu and Directed by Morio Asaka, Ryōsuke Nakamura. Original airdate April 5, 2006.

On this week's episode, we encounter an utterly contemptible protagonist in a little-known stop-motion co-production with Britain and Italy which left us utterly charmed. A sharp, abrasive art style for a sharp, abrasive character that we wound up watching via a scuffed cam version on YouTube. There is nothing more fittingly Rotten for ol' Ralph.

Episode viewed for the podcast is Episode "Surf's Up Ralph." Written by James Backshall. Unknown original airdate.
