Episode 10 of Hella Foggy goes animated. We talk about Pixar and the Bay Area’s down low reputation as an animation hotbed, the kind of regional oddity where world-shaping studios coexist with foggy hills, strange little subcultures, and people who casually know someone who worked on some iconic animated feature that changed the industry.

Greg debuts a new microphone, purchased after a brutally honest comment from one of Wayne’s many cousins. Unfortunately, the microphone does not fully rise to the moment. Audio technology remains humbling.

Wayne, meanwhile, spends a frankly heroic amount of time talking about Star Wars. More than warranted, probably. But that’s part of the charm.

Elsewhere: Bay Area pride during the Winter Olympics, including Alysa Liu bringing a properly Hyphy energy to the proceedings. We drift through kelp forests, Wayne’s encounters with elite Uber-nerds, and a brief marine-biology sidebar asking the important question: are cephalopods actually the jerks of the sea?

And, it cannot be stressed enough: a lot of Star Wars crap. Honestly, kind of a weird amount.
