Talking Simpsons - The Day The Violence Died With Matthew Jay
🕑 Added 2018-05-16 06:00:00 +0000 UTC Cartoons101's own Matthew Jay joins us this week as we go waaaay in-depth into animation history for this cartoon loving episode of The Simpsons. We chat about Ub Iwerks, Schoolhouse Rock, Kirk Douglas' long life, one of the show's most meta moments ever, and so much more. So pull up a big plate of liver and onions, buckle up in your rocket car, and listen to us liberal freaks go too far!

I thought that concept sounded familiar! They even released that track on a Radio Disney Jams album.

This episode aired back when me and my school friends were 14 and it was funny to see who amongst my peers understood subtext or just took things at face value. A lot of kids were wondering who Lester and Eliza were and thought they would now be regular characters. While they could have become regulars, the kids didn't get that an episode about plagiarism was solved by plagiarised versions of the Simpsons kids.

Radio Disney used to play stuff from that Unwrapped album frequently before they became the Hannah Montana playlist station; I distinctly remember the "Whoop There It Is" parody being on there sometimes. That "Can't Botch This" track also popped up on a Botchamania episode.
