Each week, Joey, Nathan and Kelly revisit an episode of Animaniacs, Tiny Toon Adventures, Pinky and the Brain, or Freakazoid! Today, your hosts talk about a classic episode of Tiny Toon Adventures that was actually written by 8th graders and features Steven Spielberg as himself!
This episode has an interesting origin so Joey shares a report from 1991 detailing how a group of 8th grade students got their script approved by Steven Spielberg! Tom Ruegger also shares a little information on how the episode came to be.
The episode itself starts off with Buster and Babs meeting with Spielberg after the episode starts off with Hamton as the star. Spielberg shares a new script that he just got in from some 8th grade writers and Buster and Babs are off to a new story!
The two rabbits fly to Hawaii on an insane flight piloted by Montana Max. As soon as they land in Hawaii they are pick pocketed! Fortunately they have Bugs Bunny's credit card so Buster and Babs set off to a fancy hotel where they eat tons of food, fly in a helicopter, surf and attend a luau all while creating chaos and avoiding catastrophes. Will the two survive this story written by adolescents?

Today Joey and Nathan talk about some exclusive Animaniacs Reboot news and then issue 16 of the Animaniacs comic. What will Nathan and Joey think about today's comic? Listen and find out!
Warner Bros. has released almost nothing when it comes to official news about the Animaniacs reboot in 2020. Luckily the Animanicast has received some information from sources involved in the production and there are some interesting things that can be shared. Nathan and Joey review old and new announcements concerning "The Premiere Date," "The New Showrunner." "Writers and Composers," "Animaniacs Characters" and "The Voice Actors."
Yakko, Wakko and Dot head down to the convention center to check out their favorite rock band, Kiss! Unfortunately the WWWF is there instead and they're there to wrestle! Will the Warners get the wrestlers to sing? Will Dot be cuter than the wrestler, Pretty Boy? Will this wrestling story ever end? Listen to hear Nathan and Joey wrestle with their emotions as they review this comic!
Pinky and the Brain need a laser to transfer funds into a Swiss bank account. Then the two hear about a monster truck rally coming to town which has a giant laser! What's the best way to get their hands on this laser? Why, by fixing up an old truck and entering the rally of course! Will the Brain finally get to take over the world this SUNDAY, SUNDAY, SUNDAY? Well, no. But listen anyway to find out how he fails!

Each week, Joey, Nathan and Kelly revisit an episode of Animaniacs, Tiny Toon Adventures, Pinky and the Brain, or Freakazoid! Today, your hosts talk about Freakazoid Episode four featuring the segments "And Fanboy is His Name," "The Lawn Gnomes" and some silly Freakazoid segments.
A giant wave... of hair is approaching the Poseidon cruise ship! It's Freakazoid, and he wants you to watch the show!
A fan-favorite segment of Freakazoid, this is our first introduction to Fanboy as he desperately tries to convince Freakazoid to let him be his new sidekick. This segment gives us one of the world’s longest spit takes, and Luke Skywalker himself, Mark Hamill! It also has plenty of other things for the hosts to geek out about.
This is a controversial segment of Freakazoid, in that you either don’t like it or you REALLY don’t like it. Or maybe you DO like it. The point is, this is your ONLY chance to hear about this one off segment of the Lawn Gnomes. There are plenty of interesting things to discover about this segment, including the wide variety of famous voice actors as well as the true identity of the mysterious director Turk Flipnutt… maybe?
In the closing segment, Freakazoid teaches some essential French phrases. Namely, how to ask “Who cut the cheese?”
