Happy Life Day, Everyone! And what better way to celebrate Life Day than with a new Non-Bluth episode talking about Nelvana, the studio responsible for underground Sci-Fi animation such as A Cosmic Christmas, Romie-0 and Julie-8, Rock & Rule, Intergalactic Thanksgiving, Star Wars: Droids, Star Wars: Ewoks, and yes, even the animated segment from The Star Wars Holiday Special. Joining us is special guest Avery, who, having a unique history with the studio, kindly shares his experiences of visiting Nelvana in its earlier days. We also talk at length about the various shows that Avery and ourselves grew up with from this extremely unique Canadian production house that rarely gets the recognition it deserves in the history of animation.

Music and clips are (mostly) from numerous productions by Nelvana.

We had a blast guesting on the Riverdale podcast Milkshakes and Mimosas with host Andrew Roebuck. We talked all about Don Bluth's time at Filmation working on Archie and His New Pals, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Fantastic Voyage, Will the Real Jerry Lewis Please Sit Down, and of course, the Groovie Goolies! Since we never extensively covered Don's Filmation years on TBTWBANBTB, we're excited for you all to listen. Find Milkshakes and Mimosas in Riverdale and everywhere you get your podcasts!
**Edit: There was a snafu previously where the few most recent Milkshakes and Mimosas episodes weren't distributing properly beyond just Anchor and Spotify. The issue is fixed now, so here's the iTunes link for the reupload as well.

We might as well change the name of our podcast to The Blath, the Whole Blath, and Nothing But the Blath...ers, because this episode is probably 90% about Animal Crossing (which is in no way related to Don Bluth). Sure, we intended for it to be an update on our lives and what's in store for the podcast, but it turns out our podcast updates are short and we have no lives outside of Tom Nook's happy version of capitalism. And you probably don't either, if you've been social distancing properly. But we hope this episode satisfies your need (was there any?) for our witty banter, or at least our familiar meandering tangents, and yes we do actually bring up animation of sorts! Do we lose our minds a little bit? Who can say, because who among us has any mind left these days?

There is no movie to watch this time. Ummmm... play Animal Crossing, I guess?

Music in this episode is (mostly) from Animal Crossing: New Horizons by Nintendo.
A small note that this episode was recorded July 3rd, in case some of the timing in our discussion doesn't line up with when we're releasing it over two weeks later!
Animal Crossing aside, what's our podcast usually about.....? Oh yeah, Don Bluth! Do you have a Don Bluth related story or thoughts on any of his films that you would like to share with our pod? Just call (323) 380-8103 and leave a message to be included as part of our final episode down the line! Or, if you have some audio recording know-how, feel free to email us a download link for a WAV audio file recording of yourself to TheWholeBluth@gmail.com. Or just email us and we’ll read it on the pod. Whatever is most comfortable for you!
I tell you what, you'll be glad you joined us on this episode of The Bluth, the Whole Bluth, and Nothing But the Bluth, because we're Bartalkin' Bartok the Magnificent with our good buddy, Chris Bramante! Since this is the only sequel (prequel?) to any of Don Bluth's films that the Don himself directed (and Gary too!), we felt justified in devoting a whole episode to that humorous Hank Azarian bat and his Kelsey Grammerian bear friend. Get ready for singing (maybe), Simpsons/Futurama references (most likely), and some loose Russian history (there's an outside chance). So strap yourself in for an episode that's simply B-A-R-T— OK! (wait....) I mean Magnificent, simply Magnificent!

On this very special Russian history fueled episode of The Bluth, the Whole Bluth, and Nothing But the Bluth, come with us and our guest, Chris Bramante, on a Journey to the Past! Mostly because we recorded this episode right before quarantine so it feels like a hundred years ago. We had the pleasure of discussing Don Bluth and Gary Goldman's first venture with Fox Animation Studios, Anastasia. Do we talk about how great this movie is? Perhaps. Do we break into song? Possibly. Who can even remember? If you're listening to this In the Dark of the Night, Once Upon a December (seven months after we release it), then flip a light on why don't you? You can Learn to Do It. If we can learn to do it! You can learn to do it too!

On this episode of The Bluth, the Whole Bluth, and Nothing But the Bluth, we're going back in time to Don Bluth's Disney Days with our guests, Chris Bramante and Matt Schiavone! We discuss The Sword in the Stone, Robin Hood, and a little of Pooh's many adventures. Plus we might even learn the difference between an animation director and a director of animation. So oo-de-lally, hockety pockety, and other such whimsical exclamations!

It's another NON-BLUTH, and we're finishing up the Amblimation trilogy by talking all things Balto. Somehow, we also spend a good chunk of time talking about Super Mario Brothers, Harry Potter, Fantastic Mr. Fox, Tarzan, and Cats (2019), but trust us, it all comes back to Balto. From the epic true story it's based on to the voice cast, live-action bookends, and disturbingly hot animals, we discuss this film and all its tangents like you've never heard before.

It's time for a festive Non-Bluth, and there's no better way to celebrate Christmas than with Mickey's Christmas Carol! We have a lot to say about this classic childhood favorite, as well as two other Disney shorts: Pluto's something or other, and that Santa one. Whether you're spending Christmas with your family, your cats, or the various ghosts of Christmas, we hope you enjoy our trip down memory lane with these cartoon staples of the holiday season.

On this episode, we're joined by Steven Ray Morris, Grayson Kent, A.E.

It's another episode of The Bluth, the Whole Bluth, and Nothing But the Bluth, and this time we think we may have watched A Troll in Central Park. It's all sort of a blur. What did we talk about? Who can say? Probably a little about Dom DeLuise, a little about magic shape-shifting dream boats, and there may have been a witch involved. Talking flowers? You'll just have to listen and find out!

Welcome to another installment in our NON-BLUTH series! This week we're joined by musician and podcaster Analise Nelson (Popular Music: The Podcast) to discuss a film too few have ever seen: Rock & Rule. We talk about why this film is a cult classic, the cast that’s packed full of famous pop stars, and which mouse-person is hottest. Oh yeah, and the music, of course. If we could release this episode on cassette tape, we would, but we can't, so just imagine we did!

It’s a dog’s life, and you… either love it or hate it depending on what movie you’re in. Welcome to the third installment in our NON-BLUTH series! On this episode, we’re flying solo in a late-night discussion of two very different (yet equally sheep-filled) dog movies, Rover Dangerfield and The Plague Dogs! Join us as we discuss our opinions on these films (you may be surprised), the humor, the songs, the sadness, the synths, and even some Don Bluth connections. Also, find out whether we can remember character names after midnight!

You can't keep a good pod down! On episode 5 of The Bluth, the Whole Bluth, and Nothing But the Bluth, we're joined by our friends and talented artists, Alex Cole and Evan Koehne, to talk about All Dogs Go to Heaven. We discuss its characters, artistry, flaws, strengths, and overall memorable weirdness, and we FINALLY get to debate the merits of the pizza song.

On episode four of The Bluth, the Whole Bluth, and Nothing But the Bluth, we’re joined by a full dino squad -- Steven Ray Morris (See Jurassic Right), Christian Humes (ZyteHeist), and Grayson Kent (Rock & Roll Reptiles) -- to reminisce about the beloved and very sad film from our childhoods, The Land Before Time! Have you ever wondered whether you’re a Littlefoot or a Cera? Do you spend your free time debating the paleontological accuracy of dinosaurs in animated films? Or are you just a James Horner stan, craving more Horner content? There’s something for everyone!

No, you didn't accidentally download the wrong podcast... Welcome to our very first NON-BLUTH episode! We love Don Bluth, but there's so much to say about so many other animated films too. So today, we're joined by animator Alex Cole and random stranger McLeech to discuss two very different (yet oddly similar) woodland critter films: Once Upon a Forest and Watership Down. Strap in, furlings, because even Fiver couldn't have predicted this episode!
