Shit happens, years change, and so do plans. The Boys take a look back on their 2020, the show's 2020, and Animation's 2020, play a round of Saturday Morning Pitch, and then take a look at what's coming out in animation for 2021.

Double check the power supply to your pedal board, turn your amps up to eleven, and get ready to rock into this week with the Acme Podcasts Inc. boys, as they take a look at Listeners (2020) and Kacho Oji/The Legend of Black Heaven (1999). Additionally, Lazar J rambles (big surprise) about guitars and The Boys manage the upkeep by looking at the two most recent episodes of Ducktales and then discu...

Truth! Justice! Animation! These are the virtues we here at Acme Podcasts Inc. fight for on a daily basis. No, we're not super heroes, but we watched two cartoons about super heroes this week. That's right, this week The Boys are taking a gander at The Tick and The Incredibles! Before you go looking for your super suit and letting loose your battle cry, sit tight because The Boys also talk a littl...

The Boys are joined this week by good friend of the show, KuiperNebula, to discuss two movies that he remembers fondly: Alvin and the Chipmunks Meet Frankenstein and Alvin and the Chipmunks Meet The Wolfman! That's right, we're back on those squeaky little music machines that Lazar J loves so much. They also spend some time talking about books they had to read in high school, reminisce about colle...

The 2nd of Spoopy Month is upon us here at the old API podcast warehouse and we're working overtime to bring you our takes on the first three seasons of the Netflix animated series Castlevania! Before they can get to the meat, they've gotta eat their potatoes, and this is a weird metaphor because I just mean they've gotta take care of that upkeep they've been putting off and catch up with the thre...

It's Halloween time, baby! That means we're kicking off the second Acme theme month our boys have done! That's right, it's time for Spoopy Month! We're bringing you a new episode every Monday in October, and then a special BONE-us episode on the Spoop Master General Day itself! To kick it all off we're talking the first season of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, with special guest and Acme's Chief Jojo L...

Come and set on the lily pad and dip your toes in our pondcast as we talk about some amphibtitious tales told through animation. Is that enough frog puns? We're talking about Amphibia and Freddy As F.R.07. That's the joke. You happy?

We're inching towards October now so let's break out some ghosts and spirits. This wasn't actually planned like that, but ya know what? It works. It's season 1 of Yu Yu Hakusho and the first sixteen episodes of Shaman King this week. so let's get going.

Half of us had a Rough Weekend, if you know what I mean (and I don't think you do) so we're airing a special emergency 90% Evergreen Content Episode all about some of our favorite animated music videos. Check our twitter for a link to the playlist. And hey, if we missed one you particularly love, don't worry, we're definitely going to revisit this topic at some point.

THE FINAL CHAPTER OF FANTASY MONTH 2020 IS UPON US. REJOICE AND okay, enough of that. This week The Boys tackle some Space Fantasy, or Science Fantasy, or Future Fantasy. Whatever. It's fun. They take their shot with the 2011 reboot of Thundercats and the classic Toonami hit, Outlaw Star. So, grab your samoflange, and load up that caster, cuz we're heading for the stars. Also they kibbitz a little...

Welcome back again for the conclusion of our two part bonus episodes! As promised, this time The Boys, plus returning special guest Radical Apollo take on the monumental task of talking about the PC Gamer Event and EA Play Live 2020, as well as offer a forecast of upcoming gaming events and we all learn something about Lazar J that you probably don't want to know, because even he wishes he didn't...

Uhwwwwhaaaat! Part one of a two-part bonus episode focusing on recent gaming announcements? Uh, yeah! Hell yeah! The Boys, plus returning special guest Radical Apollo tackle the PS5 reveal event and play a round of Saturday Morning Pitch. Be sure to come back tomorrow for part two, where we tackle the PC Gamer event and EA Play Live 2020.

The Boys are joined this week by their good friend Radical Apollo to discuss Dorohedoro and Kekkai Sensen (Blood Blockade Battlefront). They also spend some time discussing Craig of the Creek and GTA Online. Kai's week got cut because it turned into a too-long discussion about the PS5 reveal event, and it's getting made into it's own bonus episode going up next week! Be sure to Toon In! Ya, uh, ya...

Gird your loins and ready your character sheets, because this week The Boys are delving into two series inspired by table top role playing games: Dungeons & Dragons (1983), and The Slayers (1995). They also catch up on season 3 of Ducktales, and shoot the breeze about Warhammer 40k, Wrasslin', and Kare Kano. Venture forth once more into the breach, this week on Acme Podcasts Inc!

This week the boys, joined by friend of the show KP, head on down to Old Camelot Town and take a gander at The Sword In The Stone and Quest For Camelot. They also polish off talking about Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken!, KP played some Dishonored, Kai watched a bit of Cleopatra in Space and read all of Star Impact, and Lazar has a thoughts about what kind of ships he likes, through using Season 2 Ep...

This week Lazar J and Kaiju Emperor take a look at The Swan Princess (1994) and The Rescuers (1977), which are movies one or the other feels nostalgic about. They also continue their discussion about Duck Tales season 3, and Kai talks about RWBY.

Amidst the terror that is The Rona, our brave podcasters face off against the fiercest of foes: Barbarians! Specifically Conan and Dave. Okay, one of them is fierce; the other is rather friendly and a joy to have around. They also whip up another round of Saturday Morning Pitch, and they discuss the first three episodes of season 3 of Ducktails, as well as episodes 6-10 of The Owl House.

Your Boys, Lazar J and KaijuEmperor continue to try and nail down their format and tighten this up ship-shape by introducing a new segment to the show, and of course tackle two new series this week. Hopefully they find out what it means to be human and try and discern reality from fantasy by discussing Cybersix and The Big O.

L.J. and Kai are joined this week by their friend, K.P. Together they're a group of Dopey Male Sidekicks talking about some Hyper Competent Lady Adventurers with their own Dopey Male Sidekicks (and in Ms. Sandiego's case, Dopey Fraternal Twin Sidekicks). That's right, they're talking about Season 1 of Kim Possible and Season 1 of Carmen Sandiego (2019).

We finish up our look at OK KO: Let's Be Heroes, as well as the oft-overlooked classic Cats Don't Dance. Also, Lazar had a really shitty two weeks.

What is it about people grouping up in teams of three and then getting up to shenanigans that may save the world, or at least each other? It's a thing, Yeah? Samurai Champloo and OK KO: Let's Be Heroes season 2. We also talk about what we're excited for in 2020, but, uh, this was recorded on New Years Eve, so some of this stuff is already out. Have fun.

The hosts who are hopefully growing on you the most head on over to Agrabah to see Al, Jazz, and Gene in Disney's Aladin (the TV series) before heading north to hang out at the polis with Herc and his buddies (again, the TV series), and then finally jump way on forward in time to finish off season one of OK KO: Let's Be Heroes (yet again, the- oh, that's right, there was no movie version of this;...

This week our intrepid hosts (a stretch of the words if I've ever heard one) try and find their groove as Kuzco tries out his new one and try and find out whether Buzz Lightyear of Star Command is a loose-cannon space cop who doesn't play by the rules (he doesn't, he wrote most of the rules). Most importantly though, Lazar and KaijuEmperor begin their multi-episode deep dive on one of the best sho...

In this first episode of Acme Podcasts Inc we discuss The Chipmunk Adventure, season 2 of Ducktales (2017), and oft-overlooked 80's gem Bravestarr
