In the spirit of “getting weird”, WR&P cohosts enter their intergalactic space portal and travel to unique worlds of the experimental and the animated. With guided tours from alien extraordinaires such as Phil Tippett and René Laloux, this adventurous animation exploration remains steeped in blooming psychedelia and rugged world-building. Ryan and Kevin introduce the pod to different representations of animation style by diving straight into the deep end.
