The Emmys happened! They're a thing! We talk about the winners and our love for "Bob's Burgers" as well as the Every Simpsons Ever marathon happening on FXX (whatever THAT channel is...). The great Lord/Sir/Mr. Amazing Richard Attenborough passed away and we honor him, but then he honors us right back by giving us maybe the greatest transition we've ever done (divined through Pat, who's back this episode)! And don't say we never did anything for you, because we read another email exchange between a major company asking for free work and an artist who just won't take it anymore (emphasis mine)!

(40:36) RIP Lord Richard Attenborough

Rob and Stephen saw the new "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" (2014) film... and have some words. We break it down and compare it in depth with other iterations of the franchise such as the 1990 movie, the 1987 cartoon series, 2003 cartoon series, and the original and new IDW comic book! Also, in true RubberOnion fashion... we do our own rendition of a beloved song. Listen for it! So what did you think of the movie and our review?

Robin Williams, long-time friend to and lover of animation and a comedic and dramatic role model for many left us this week. We talk about what impact his life and career had on us and the field of animation as a whole. Other stories we cover in this episode are a survey which shows that YouTube stars are more popular than mainstream celebs among US teens, Golden Globes changing the animation rules, and what's going on with the Legend of Korra.

This week we talk about the new Spongebob Squarepants movie, Studio Ghibli might be closing, and Ross "rubberNinja" O'Donovan breaks down why YouTube's algorithm is hurting Indie Animators. Oh also, guess what? We made it to 40 episodes! Not a traditional milestone but who cares... we haven't completely fallen on our faces yet and that's something. Thanks for listening and discussing the episodes and all the stuff we say -- means a lot to us, or something. CLICK HERE to go to the full blog post & leave a comment! Annotations:(1::09:56) 7 Minutes of Star Wars Rebels is released
(1:37:17) Studio Ghibli is closing... mmmaybe
