2 hr 2 min - What We Owe Each Other (in art)
On this meandering episode, we talk about some of the ways that creators have responsibilities to their audience, and the responsibilities that audience members have to creators. We also solve diversity somewhere in there, turns out you just hire Idris Elba. I don't make the rules.

1 hr 26 min - How the Sausage is Made
Is there anything better than learning how cool stuff is made? Behind the scenes, making of, documentaries, postmortems, directors commentaries, art books and more, we just can't get enough of hearing the stories of creative people being creative, and the raw joy of creation and collaboration.

2 hr 11 min - Darkness for Kids
Can kids be trusted to understand dark themes in their media?
Yes, duh, what an absurd thing to say. Kids stories have been dark for literal millennia. But we have a grand ol' time going over some great modern examples, particularly focusing on stop-motion animation and Guillermo Del Toro's Pinocchio.

1 hr 39 min - Hayman & Old Work
In this episode, Cory & Adam talk about the value of old work, and explore Hayman, Cory's childhood project. A truly staggering feat that will astonish with it's breadth and scope as we chart Cory's prepubescent madness. But make no mistake, we're big fans of this chaotic, unhinged creativity. There's part of both of us that yearns to go back to this kind of energy, and we hope you see why.

1 hr 25 min - Fans & Fandoms
In this episode, Cory & Adam talk about what it means to like things... responsibly. Which like, doesn't sound like that big of a topic. But it is, and we touch on community, identity, belonging, gatekeeping, tolerance, power dynamics, and much more.

2 hr 17 min - A Goofy Movie
In this very special episode, we're all about 1995's A Goofy Movie. This movie means a lot to Cory personally, but there's so much to love here regardless. Listen to us as we inject the Were-Goof serum into ourselves and lose our minds.

1 hr 44 min - Media & Marketing
In this very long episode, we manage to barely scratch the surface of the complex, interconnected topic which is the relationship between art and money. We get real passionate as we realize that this is the forever topic that touches ever aspect of the things we love. We fight on the side of art.
