It's time for the Animanicast! Discussing Pinky and the Brain and Larry

Join your hosts Joey, Nathan and Kelly in the "Animanicast!" A podcast dedicated to Animaniacs and its sister shows in the "Rueggerverse." Today the hosts review another episode of Pinky and the Brain featuring the segments "Pinky and the Brain and Larry" and "Where the Deer and the Mousealope Play." Plus a guest appearance by Charles M. Howell IV! How many water towers will this classic episode get?

Pinky and the Brain and Larry

Pinky and the Brain are joined by a third mouse-- Larry. Larry goes out with Pinky and the Brain in their latest scheme to take over the world but ends up becoming a hindrance more than being helpful. Larry leaves but is later replaced by another third wheel-- Zeppo.

Where the Deer and the Mouselope Play

The Brain needs to take over the steel industry of Pittsburgh and getting all the humans out of the way. He and Pinky pose as endangered "mouselopes" and seek their native land of Pittsburgh as reparations. There's tons of political and pop culture references in this episode and Joey, Nathan and Kelly dig through as much as they can!

Guest Appearance: Charles M. Howell IV

Pinky and the Brain writer amd producer Charles M. Howell IV comes on to discuss how "Pinky and the Brain and Larry" came about.
