Our first regular What A Cartoon of 2025 showcases a huge part of US animation history: Craig McCracken's The Powerpuff Girls! On this episode, we chart the growth of Townsville's favorite kids from dorm room shorts to early Hanna-Barbera pilots to Cartoon Network's eternal cash cow. So listen in and help us celebrate two of our favorite episodes from the first season—both of which feature the greatest villain, Mojo JoJo!

The holiday season is upon us once again, which means it's time to discuss a Christmas cartoon that doesn't suck. This year, we're looking at the second Beavis and Butt-Head yuletide episode—the first with actual animation—where the two troubled teens find themselves in delightful and at times disgusting parodies of A Christmas Carol and It's a Wonderful Life. So pause your favorite holiday porno, because it's time to hear about our two favorite eternal adolescents trying their hardest to figure out the true meaning of Christmas.

When the family-unfriendly Tim Burton horror/comedy Beetlejuice ended up being a big hit with kids, Warner Bros. made the strange decision to shove their undead deviant into the ever-changing landscape of children's programming. The result? A 94-episode animated series that depicts Lydia and Beetlejuice as best (platonic) buds whose adventures bring them to the depths of the Neitherworld and back. So does the pun-based, gross-out humor hold up 30 years later? Listen in and find out!

Chosen by our premium patron Andrew, we're returning to our favorite Nicktoon, Rocko's Modern Life! This time we're straddling eras of the show. First, we're covering a season one trip to Heck as we learn about factory farming and codependence. Then, we start some "spring cleaning" in Autumn with a beloved musical tribute to sappy (but well-meaning) environmentalism. So listen now before Mother Nature kicks your butt!
