SpongeBob SquarePants is one of the biggest cartoons EVER, so it's about time we cover it on What A Cartoon! And, thanks to patron Phillip Jacobi, we're looking at one of the very early episodes that helped build towards the eventual period of SpongeBob Mania. Listen in as Matthew Jay of Cartoons 101 joins us to discuss the history and the creator of Nickelodeon's long-running mega-hit, and appreciate some particularly great performances from comic legends Tim Conway and Ernest Borgnine. If you don't play this podcast immediately, you're EVIIIIIIIIIL!!!
