I'm Definitely Not a Popufur

Where would you expect an After Hours episode with the incredible fursuiter Yippee Coyote to go? Why, to 1995's seminal animated classic A GOOFY MOVIE, of course. Well that and what a "Double Doo Dah" is, the cornerstones of our humor, and whether or not "Weird Al" Yankovic is down with the fuzzies. It's goofy, it's wild, and it's how we see each other eye-to-eye.

On a very special episode of I'M DEFINITELY NOT A POPUFUR, Punk & Sawd sit down with one of the most acclaimed fursuiters in the history of the fandom: Yippee Coyote! Over the decades, Yippee has created numerous characters, inherited others, and taken his skills and stylings from California sports team mascots all the way to Burning Man. Having attended over 100 furcons (and counting!), Yippee details how he got into the world of furry, handles the debate of speaking suiters versus non-speaking, and discussed what it was like meeting Rob Paulsen, the voice of Pinky from "Pinky & the Brain", while dressed up as Pinky. As someone who deeply entrenched in the history of the fandom, we couldn't be happier to speak to the cavalcade of characters that exists within Yippee's cartoonish and wonderful universe.

For anyone who's listened to previous episodes of I'M DEFINITELY NOT A POPUFUR, you know that "The Funday Pawpet Show" has come up quite a bit. The longest-running podcast in the world and an extensive document of the furry fandom, one of its longest-running cast members is Kuddlepup, often referred to as KP. Having voiced iconic characters like Ezra Shorts and Tod Ferret , KPs love of puppetry and all things furry has also led him to be a chair for Anthrocon, one of the founding chairs for Megaplex, and a sometimes curator for Midwest Fur Fest. Throughout his discussion with Punk & Sawd, KP talks about the magic of the fandom, the power of being in the right place at the right time, and so much more. Candidly, Punk & Sawd may have shed a tear or two upon hearing KPs many stories, and they're all the better for it.

Nicki Tens is many things: a classic game lover, a painter and artist, a kigurumi mask maker, and so much more. In her impactful episode with Sawd & Punk, she talks about everything in her furry journey: from the early Don Bluth films leaving an impact to a museum installation that led to the embrace of her trans identity. It's pinball machines and Amiga graphics cards, going viral as Jessica Rabbit and performing at Disney. It's a journey, and it's a delight.

The latest After Hours edition of I'M DEFINITELY NOT A POPUFUR finds Sawd & Punk sitting down with venerated guest Sotalo (founder of the Virtual Furry Museum), to talk about a wide range of subjects, specifically starting with the Museum's recent removal from the VR Community Awards shortly before taping. It's a conversation that dives into multiple facets, ranging from what is considered controversial from within the fandom to Sotalo's own experience in reconciling with the notion that many of his friends were babyfurs. It's a deeper and more serious After Hours ep than others, but furries encountering censorship is not a new archetype by any means.

The best part about the furry fandom is that anyone can join from any walk of life, but those who stick around get to know a bit about the history they're taking a part of. Few know the history of furry quite like Sawd & Punk's incredible guest this week: Sotalo! The founder of the Virtual Furry Museum, one of the most profound and significant VR worlds and connections to the furry fandom that has ever existed, Sotalo sits down to talk about his own upbringing, the events that led him into the fandom, and how being a furry quite literally saved his life. It's heart-rendering, it's honest, it's funny, it's a delight.

In our second delightful (and slightly intoxicated) After Hours experiment, Sawd & Punk speak with longtime furry, Anthrocon chair, and samurai cockroach Uncle Kage to dive into the issues that really matter: what the best Muppet is, the most innovative fursuits, and what actually goes into the white stuff of Oreos. It's a lark!

When Punk & Sawd started this podcast, little did they realize the reach it would have. As they uncovered more and more stories of the fandom, they traced things back to its roots, and it's here that they crossed paths with the Storyteller himself, Uncle Kage. As a man who attended some of the earliest furry conventions, he would later go on to become the chairman of Anthrocon, one of the biggest furcons of its kind. He sits down to talk to Punk & Sawd about the trends he's seen throughout the years, what makes a good con, who "The Unknown Furry" is, and why his sona is a bug that never had any official renderings. Grab a tall glass of wine as we talk about furry past and present with Uncle Kage.
