(And how can you call yourself a weekly podcast if you do that!)  For the foreseeable future, this will be the final episode of Toon Talk Weekly. It’s been a decision I’ve wrestled with for a long while now and I explain where my thoughts are on the show and what we’ve accomplished on this episode.
