If there's one constant in the ATH Network, it's that at some point Bryan and Jon will get together to talk about Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and this week on the now renamed Casual Cartoons is no different. The two episodes up for discussion are Season One's "Hot Rodding Teenagers From Dimension X" and Season Three's "Leatherhead Meets The Rat King." One episode has the lore, and the other has...

We have a quick update on the status of Casual Cartoons, as well as plans to record the Venture Bros finale that was promised all that time ago. There's also talk about the upcoming Frisky Dingo podcast and whether or not Matt will be one of the cohosts. He will. Maybe? For sure. As for the rest of today's episode: Kubo and the Two Strings was another one of those Laika films that was a bit overlo...

This week on Corona Cartoons Bryan is joined by Alex Orona from Super GG Radio and friend Katherine Cliff to discuss the the Macaulay Culkin movie The Pagemaster. If you've ever seen those posters in the library with celebrities that say "READ," this movie is essentially that. Come for the Macaulay Culkin trivia, stay for the fun animated film that has a love for film and that really wants kids to...

This week on Corona Cartoons we're discussing the Don Bluth film The Secret of NIMH, which marks his departure from Disney and the beginning of quite the interesting pivot in his filmography. If the name doesn't sound familiar to you, the films might. From here he went on to do An American Tail, Land Before Time, Rock-A-Doodle, as well as the video games Dragon's Lair and Space Ace. This movie is...

Bryan's life is slowly returning to normal, but still no new episode of Corona Cartoons this week.  We bring to you in its place, After the Hype's episode on the totally insane Batman Ninja!  Enjoy!  Regular episodes to return next week!

This week on Corona Cartoons we're back on the Batman train with Batman: Mask of the Phantasm, a film that almost no one saw in the theater. Or maybe you saw it if your parents were cool. Anyway, we brought back Ben Kurstin and Chewie joined us and we had a grand ol' time, so you probably want to check this out right quick. **Disclaimer had some audio issues with a crunchy noise that was persisten...

This week on Corona Cartoons: A Venture Bros Podcast, Bryan is joined by Matt Dykes, Adam Slutsky, and Ben Kurstin to discuss one of the best cartoons in recent history - Batman: The Animated Series. They all dive into what made the show so great as well as discuss the episodes "Joker's Favor," "Heart of Ice," "Read My Lips," and "Feat of Clay: Parts 1 & 2." If you haven't seen the show, stop what...

This week on Corona Cartoons Bryan and Chewie are joined by Rae Deslich to discuss the classic Who Framed Roger Rabbit, which leads to a fascinating look at L.A. history.

This week on Corona Cartoons Bryan is joined by Jeff Frumess to talk about two very wonderful classics: Doug & The Angry Beavers. It's kind of wild how old these cartoons are, and yet they somehow feel like they're only a few years old. If you haven't seen these shows in awhile, you owe it to yourself to revisit. Enjoy!

This week on Corona Cartoons we've brought on Johnny Recher and Samantha Garrison to talk about Cowboy Bebop, perhaps one of the greatest anime series of all time. It's the one show that has the ability to appeal to people from vastly different walks of life, even 20+ years on. If you haven't had a chance to rewatch, you probably should...and then listen to us take a deep dive on why the show has...

Bryan pulled a real Rusty Venture and lost all the audio to pt. 2 of Clerks... HOWEVER, we have a super fun episode on a show we never thought we would talk about, Rick and Morty!  Emily Blake picked 3 episodes for Bryan and Chewie to scratch the surface of this animated juggernaut!

The Corona Virus means that we can't record our Venture Bros wrap up, which in turn means we can't quite get to our Frisky Dingo watch-through. Bummer, right? Well, not anymore, because we're making lemonade out of a virus and doing a series about a bunch of different cartoons while we wait for this whole mess to blow over. We're starting our "Corona Cartoons" with the Clerks animated series. Well...

Alas, dear listener. We've come to the end of series...for now. There are no more Venture Bros episodes for us to discuss and break down (poorly) so take in this last opportunity while you still can. "But Shownotes Writer," you ask softly, "what comes after Venture Bros?" That's a good question, and one that our heroes answer pretty quickly. All you gotta do is push that play button and just go to...

This week on Venture Bros...SNOW! Bryan Dressel, Graham "Brock" Mason, and Matt "Dean Venture" Dykes discuss the penultimate episode of season seven (and possibly the series? At least until there's more? Please make more?) The Forecast Manufacturer. Both this episode and the finale are deeply connected so advanced warning that there might be some callouts to moments from next week. There's also so...

This week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Graham "Scott Hall" Mason, and Matt "Tim-Tom" Dykes discuss The Terminus Mandate in which the Guild Council are required to face their arch rivals one last time before becomming full members of the council. Rusty also trains to go on a date with a top notch prostitute who kills everyone she sleeps with. Does it go well? * J. Jonah Jameson laughing gif * INTR...

This week on Venture Bros, A Venture Brothers Podcast Bryan Dressel, Graham "Princess Tinglepants" Mason, and Matt "Catclops" Dykes discuss the season seven episode "The Unicorn in Captivity." Easily one of the better episodes of the season, "Unicorn" sees the Monarch joining a heist featuring some wild characters, and a particularly powerful invention that takes Rusty down an interesting path. Wu...

This week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Graham "Brown Widow" Mason, and Matt "Baron Underbite" Dykes discuss "The Bellicose Proxy."

We hope you brought rubbers, because a storm is coming. INTRO MUSIC CO...

This week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Graham "H.E.L.P.eR. MOD-2" Mason, and Matt "Corporal Snoopy" Dykes talk The Inamorata Consequence, which is quite enjoyable...unless you're Matt. The Guild of Calamitous Intent and the OSI renegotiate their contract, Hank reunites with Dermot, and Dean goes back to the place where he learned that he and Hank were clones...only to find out that Rusty was ALSO...

This week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Graham "Billy Quiz Boy" Mason, and Matt "The Monarch" Dykes discuss The High Cost of Loathing, in which The Monarch deals with the financial challenges of rebuilding his organization. Or as Bryan likes to call it: Season Seven Proper. INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday

This week on the podcast, Bryan Dressel, Graham "Dr. Z" Mason, and Matt "Sgt. Hatred" Dykes take for F*CKING ever to get the episode started, but that's okay because the whole thing involves messing with Matt. And then it's on to the jam-packed conclusion to the Morphic Trilogy, which has some very "potent" science. Also, Dr. Jonas Venture is just pure evil. INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Pars...

GOOD NEWS EVERYONE! Venture Bros returns from a cursed hiatus to see out the rest of the series.

Are you ready for Part 2 of the Morphic Trilogy? Hell yeah you are. INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David...

After a whole month of scheduling and Star Wars shenanigans, we're back with a new episode of Venture Bros! This week Bryan Dressel, Nick "Frasier" Friedemann, and Matt "Cheers" Dykes discuss the finale of season six. Or rather...the NON-finale, amirite? It's good, but you could combine this and the following couple of episodes in season seven into one long episode. Anyway, thanks for your patienc...

This week on Venture Bros Bryan Dressel, Matt "Shazzan" Dykes, and Graham "Cool McCool" Mason discuss the penultimate episode of season six - A Party For Tarzan.
