Join your hosts Joey, Nathan and Kelly in the "Animanicast!" A podcast dedicated to Animaniacs and its sister shows. Today's episode features panel audio from the 50th Anniversary of Freakazoid at FanX in Salt Lake City! In what will surely be the first stop of many across the world, Tom Ruegger and Paul Rugg share stories of the development of the super hero cartoon that wanted to be anything other than a super hero cartoon. Find out how the show was put into motion, how Tom, Paul and John P. McCann stepped in after Bruce Timm and Paul Dini gave it a shot and whether or not the show could get a reboot today! All this along with some screaming and Relax-O-Vision!
