Out of Arlen, Texas and into the vastness of space, Lesley and Ben are talking about Lesley’s staff pick, the interdimensional Adult Swim comedy, Rick and Morty. Lesley and Ben have very different reactions and experiences with the show, Lesley started watching more recently and loves the show, while Ben used to love the show and bailed after the McDonald’s Szechaun sauce incident shook his faith in fandom. We talk about fluidity of animation and character design, the problems we encounter liking a show that has a frustrating fandom and how misinterpretations of characters they love and hate get under our skin some times. All this and more on the latest Syndicated with Lesley and Ben.We’re really excited to talk about Adult Animation together for Season 2 of Syndicated with Lesley and Ben.
