Prince Violent (Varmint)

Nate and Jenni discuss Space Jam in 16 fewer minutes than it would take to watch the film. The power of the human cast, the stillness of the toons, and nineties corporate whatevers are all discussed in this loosey-goosey change of pace.

The Tasmanian Devil: icon, mascot, real life creature... and Shakespearean actor? Join Nate and Jenni as they dive into who Taz really is in the brilliant short “Devil May Hare.”

Jenni and Nate look maybe a little too deeply into the 1944 sendup of Little Red Riding Hood. Generation wars, tough life in show biz, and war time Bugs all make gritty appearances in what is among the greatest shorts TO HAVE.

Join Nate and Jenni as they try to nail down the legacy of Pepé le Pew. This award-winning short pulls from French cinema, but would absolutely not be made today... we hope.

Jenni and Nate enjoyed this Chuck Jones short from 1946 in which Peter Lorre has the role of a lifetime, introducing our favorite monster. However, this short begs the question, is Bugs his best self when he's in danger? Or just when a sexy robot is involved?

Too violent for TV?! In this episode focused on the 1961 short “Prince Violent,” Nate and Jenni discuss the origin of Yosemite Sam, the importance of showing action, successful Bugs, and how elephants work.

Nate and Jenni follow Porky to Wackyland to see what all the fuss is about. Does this award-winning short stand the test of time, or should it go the way of the Dodo Bird?

Jenni and Nate take a look and listen at the 1957 Merrie Melodies short, "What's Opera, Doc?" directed by Chuck Jones. Nate knows a lot about opera. Jenni doesn't. Nate thinks he got a lot of details wrong.
