Episode 71 - Hercules: Zero to Hero

00:00 / 1:30:29

Wow, it almost sounds like Tony forgot to adjust his levels before recording. Hmm…

Episode 41 – Tangled: Before Ever After

Our new season continues! Life’s gonna be like strawberry sherbet.

Important questions:

How much cuter did Pascal get?

What is gained and lost in a shift to classical animation?

Keep an ear out for Andy being mad that Eugene is shoved to the side, and Tony analyzing frying pan attacks.
