Talking Simpsons - The Itchy & Scratchy & Poochie Show With Rebecca Sugar & Ian Jones-Quartey & Toby Jones
Added 2018-10-10 03:00:01 +0000 UTCIt's time for one of the most insider-y episodes of The Simpsons ever, so we had to get some MAJOR guests to help us deconstruct all of it! To help us analyze the kung fu hippie from gansta city, we're joined live in Los Angeles by Rebecca Sugar, the creator of Steven Universe, Ian Jones-Quartey, the creator of OK KO: Let's Be Heroes, and Toby Jones, the co-executive producer on OK KO!! All three superstars are Simpsons experts and they share with us how this iconic episode both does and doesn't reflect the realities of animation showrunning. Not to mention we talk about how this episode reflects own love of The Simpsons and what it's like to experience both sides of creating and enjoying animation! All that plus Rebecca, Ian, and Toby tell behind the scenes tales from Steven Universe and OK KO, an examination of what it means to be proactive, and whenever he's not on the podcast you'll hear us asking "Where's Poochie?"

Coming back to this, one thing I can't figure out is who is supposed to voice Poochie in the title sequence. It's too low to be Homer, George Meyers, or June Bellamy--so who the hell is it??

I'm 35 and it matters so much to hear it now, so I can only imagine how much kinder and understanding kids who watch these shows will be when they're my age.
