Support us on patreon if you like what we do! https://www.patreon.com/AnimateysPodcastHello all you lovely people out there in Internet land! Welcome to Animateys, a podcast hosted by two people (friends) who insist on taking beloved childhood cartoons and mercilessly evaluating them (i.e. over-complicating them)! As the name implies, our primary interest is in cartoons and animation, particularly those on networks like Cartoon Network or Nickelodeon, the likes of which we both watched as kids. We re-watch a new cartoon each episode and discuss them in a laid-back style podcast with semi-regular episodes. In addition to general reviews and basic information about each show we watch we each bring a specific perspective to bear on the podcast. Paige focuses more on political and economic content and implications of each cartoon while Chris focuses his psychological knowledge to understand the implications of each cartoon, although we often cover both areas together.

Episode 61: All Grown Up
Growing up is hard. Making a show about the Rugrats growing up compelling appears to have been even harder. On this Season Finale episode of Animateys, we dig in to discover that some things really do change, and not always for the better, when you're All Grown Up.
-
Episode 60: Rocket Power
BUSTED! We're back from summer break with a very summer show: Rocket Power! Put on your pads, get out your tiny shirts, big pants, crimped hair and a massive sense of abandon as we time travel back to the late 90's and its signature style.
-
Episode 59: As Told By Ginger
In an Animateys first, we sit down for the 2nd time to discuss a show that, on first pass almost got a shallow treatment from us, but on second pass was so much more than we remembered. As Told By Ginger will certainly be a different take on the shows we tend to see from Nickelodeon. Note, this...
-
Episode 58: The Wild Thornberrys
Animateys is on the trail of the illusive "Wild Thornberry" species. We have a smashing episode for you. For example, did you know that the adult caretakers of the Thornberry species almost entirely ignore their young? Or that they adopt all sorts of outsiders with no consideration of the...

We're going ghost this time on Animateys as we discuss Danny Phantom just in time for the spooky season (at least when we recorded!). Enjoy a ghostly romp around Amity Park as we discuss this gem of the mid 00's.
-
Episode 54: Johnny Bravo
Sassy! This time, we dig into a weirdly popular cartoon cartoon from the late 90's - Johnny Bravo. He's an Elvis - James Dean milkshake that just doesn't quite taste right in this, the year of our Lord 2023. So join us as we dish about this one.

Zoinks! Like, man, we're back with another spooky episode to unmask. But this time, it's no evil old man out for cash, but a surprisingly funny, deep and sci-fi/horror loving series from the 2010s. A new take on an old classic gets a hard look. No scooby snacks here, though.
