Howdy toonfans! If you couldn't tell immediately, my mic broke and I never realised it until I went to edit the episode! OOPS! So my apologies for that, it does sound quite shit. Anyway! This week we watched some wildly traumatic cartoons from our childhoods, Animals of Farthing Wood and Watership Down, one of which neither can figure out how it even exists, and the other is one of the best th...

Howdy Toonfans! This week we're talking about these cool new movies called Into the Spider-Verse and Across the Spider-Verse, which are about the consequences of poorly storing radioactive materials.   For the first half of the episode we're spoiler-free, only discussing the first movie. The second half is SPOILER HEAVY for Across the Spider-Verse. So if you haven't seen it, don't...

Howdy Toonfans! In this episode of Toonhounds we're exploring the world of Martial Arts cartoons with two of the most popular: Jackie Chan Adventures and Xiaolin Showdown.  Remember, in the immortal words of Master Onion, "Kick.

Howdy Toonfans! On this weeks episode we got into puppetry in a big way, and watched the 1960s British staples Thunderbirds and Captain Scarlet. Take a non-alcoholic (we don't want to kill you) shot every time Spivzy forgets what happened in Thunderbirds!

Howdy Toonfans! This week Rich & Spivzy are investigating what's really rocking on planet number three, and determining if modern man really does have prehistoric company. We're talking cartoons about teams intended to sell toys to dumb children! Swat Kats and The Extreme Dinosaurs were on the block this week, with us chatting about toys, video games, and comics as always. We also answ...

Howdy toon fans! This week Rich & Spivzy are delving deep into the depths of Disney drek and deciphering the uh...deliciousness of... I can't keep the D thing going, we watched some Disney movies that are maybe a bit crap? We watched The Black Cauldron, which confused us a great deal, and The Lion King, which confused Spivzy a great deal. Join our Patreon at Patreon.com/toonhounds --- Rich...

Howdy Toonfolks! This week's theme went through a few revisions, starting out as BBC Cartoons, then British cartoons, then we both picked shows from the same studio. We could have titled it "David Jason Cartoons" as well to be honest! Anyway, we watched Danger Mouse, Count Duckula, and the Danger Mouse & Count Duckula crossover. We had fun with this one!  Join our Patreon at Patr...

They said it couldn't be done! We were thwarted at every turn! But here it is at last, our episode where we talk about Super Mario with our good ol buddy ol pal Jeff (@_jeffpennington, mclass podcast). It's a humdinger of an episode, where we discuss video game memories, Mario himself, Resident Evil for some reason, and we get a really nice email! Join our Patreon at Patreon.com/toonhounds...

Hey there toonsters! Get ready for some laughs and a lot of dragon roars, because in this episode we're talking about two of DreamWorks' biggest animated hits - The Prince of Egypt and How to Train Your Dragon.

Hello! This week we were joined by Sam Linstrom and Cameron Schneberger  to talk about two Rankin/Bass classics, 1977's The Hobbit and 1982's The  Last Unicorn. Rich has our guests embroiled in a battle to the death in  this episode, where we have to decide the winner of the two films in a  series of categories!

Hello Toonfans! This week Rich & Spivzy are watching some cartoon's  starring characters who used to be in other cartoons, and now they're in this one, but sometimes they're in the other one as well. Spinoffs,  baby! Are they good? Do they work? What olympic events did Yogi Bear win? Why did we watch the literal worst possible episode of Rescue Rangers we could have picked? None of t...

On this week's Toonhounds we're chatting Batman: The Dark Knight Returns  Part 1 & 2 (2012/13) and Planet Hulk (2010), and try to decide  which is better - a direct adaptation or loosey goosey? We talk about  comics a lot in this one from the very start of the episode, get really  nerdy with it, and call Batman an enlightened centrist at one point so  that's what you'r...

Hello Toonhounds! This week we're watching cartoons relating to music, 1968's Yellow Submarine and 1976's Allegro Non Troppo. One of them is a fantastic piece of animation that we recommend everyone seek out, and the other has Ringo Starr!  --- Rich - @MastersRich - @BoldlyProse Spivzy - Is also on the internet Our music is by @_Vidazen_ Episode art by David Spyve Episode edited by David Spyv...

Ho Ho Ho travelers! Spivzy Claus and Richdolf have got a special gift inside their bulging sack for you all. Why, it's Matthew Tucciarone of Heroes Three and T'Pon's Theater!  This week we're talking some holiday cartoon favourites, Duck The halls, Community's Abed's Uncontrollable Christmas, and Futurama's Xmas Story.  Hope you all have a happy and healthy celebration, and we'll see you...

The holiday season is often a time for tradition.... So to break that,  we're not doing a show about cartoons this week! Well, sort of. George  of the Jungle is basically a cartoon with people in, and Paddington has a  cgi bear in it, but, you know what I mean! Enjoy this episode where we  talk about how hot Brendan Fraser is and our mutual crush on Sally  Hawkins. We watc...

Howdy Toonhounds! This week Rich and Spivzy are joined by their friend Sean to have a chat about cartoons aimed at the young folk, intended to teach them valuable life lessons about sharing, acceptance, and which toys to buy. Enjoy a 2 hour or so talk between two daddies, and also Spivzy is there to give his unique perspective on fatherhood (he has a cat). --- Rich - @MastersRich on twitter, boldl...

Happy Halloween! In celebration of this ookiest of seasons, we watched two of the newer entries to the Scooby-doo franchise. 2020's Scoob!, and 2022's Trick or Treat Scooby-Doo. Can you guess which one was the worst thing we've ever watched for the show?! -- Rich Masters - @MastersRich @BoldlyProse Spivzy - @Spivzy Music by Vidazen @_Vidazen_ Email us toonhounds@gmail.com Find us on twitter @Toonh...

Happy almost Halloween everyone! For our first of this years celebration of the end of the harvest festival, we're taking a glowy-eyed stare at a man famous for wearing a halloween costume year round - The one and only Batman. Rich has picked us four Batman TAS episodes to sink our pointy teeth into, so give it a listen and enjoy. --- Rich - @Mastersrich @BoldlyProse Spivzy - @Spizy Music by Vidaz...

Hello!! Got a brand new piping hot episode for you, all about the most  interesting of minecraft blocks - Clay! Claymation is on the table today, where Rich & Spivzy have a big chat about The Trap Door and Wallace & Gromit: The Wrong Trousers, before answering some of your emails and hearing entries to the Marge  Simpsons Impersonation Competertion. --- Rich Masters - @MastersRic...

This week, the Toonhounds are getting weird with it, by watching some weird cartoons! First up is a certified classic of 90s cartoon network, the Ed Edd and Eddy episode (or endenenendy as Spivzy kept calling it) One + One = Ed. Then we're heading to France to watch one of the strangest things we've ever seen, Freddie as F.R.O.7, also known as Freddie The Frog. We close out the show with an email,...

"What better excuse, to have a podcast, than to force people to listen for about 40 minutes about a thing you specifically are interested in?" In this little bonus episode, listen to Spivzy enthuse about an absolutely batshit comic book from the 30s, for much longer than 40 minutes!  This episode was a patreon exclusive, and you could have listened MONTHS earlier by joining us at patreon.com/...

BLUB BLUB BLUB! Blub blubub blub blubulblub? Blubble blub blubbles! Do you get it, it was like I was underwater? Ah shut your face! Hi guys it's the Toonhounds back again ready to drench you from head to foot with fun. I said FUN, jeez what is it with you today? Anyway, we watched Fish Police and Ponyo, then we answered emails and talked about shit for about 40 minutes, it's a good episode! Oh als...

Fresh out the oven we've got a delicious course of Theatrical Releases of Cartoon Movies Based on Established TV Shows (Which are Animated). Delicious! Pull up a chair as your waiters Spivzy, Rich, and special guest Maitre-d' Sam Linstrom serve up some smiles. I don't know why I'm doing so many food metaphors today, maybe I'm hungry. We watched Spongebob Squarepants the movie, Rugrats the movie, a...

This week the toonhounds are focusing their chi and fighting with 1,000,000% of their power, as they tackle the heady world of shonen anime! Spivzy tries his best to explain Dragonball Z and My Hero Academia to a relative newcomer the genre, and Rich asks some hard-hitting questions. Like is Piccolo called that because he looks like a pickle? --- Rich Masters @MastersRich @BoldlyProse Spivzy @Spiv...
