POPULARITY
Robert Valley is an Academy Award nominee for short "Pear Cider and Cigarettes", an Annie winner for the "Tron: Uprising" animated series and an Emmy winner for his work on popular program "Love, Death + Robots". He returns to "LD+R" with a new short for Vol. 4 called "400 Boys". It stars John Boyega and premieres this Thursday May 15th on Netflix.
In their mission to prove that cider is as approachable as beer yet nuanced as wine, Bivouac Cider kicks off a week of Last Call with their Albright Dry Pear Cider. It's dry and crushable but also holds on to a very subtle sweetness thanks to Pear that will keep you coming back sip after sip!
This episode originally broadcast on February 22, 2024. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2024/02/binary-system-podcast-399-wtnv-242-the-new-branch-and-the-oscar-nominated-animated-shorts/ On the latest episode of Night Vale the Librarians broke out of their cages but some heroes saved the day andnoweverythingisfineTheEnd SO! HOW ABOUT THOSE OSCAR ANIMATED SHORTS? (Kidding, it was a fun episode of Night Vale, we're just really excited to talk about cartoons.) Anyway, massive spoiler warnings as we discuss our favorite Oscar-nominated animated shorts, which were as surprising as they were upsetting, just how we like them. (This episode of VagueCast is brought to you by the 2024 Oscar Animated Shorts Collection: yiiiiikes.) And before we wrap up, we also have to go over the latest Hugo-Award-Clusterf*ck news, which was outdated even before we finished recording because it KEEPS GETTING WORSE. This week's outro is a clip from Illusion by Darkfluxx. Correction: we said passenger pigeon several times, when we meant carrier pigeon. Homing pigeon would've been even better. Correction 2: War Is Over isn't a Beatles song, John Lennon released it outside of the band. Elizabeth apologizes to all the John Lennon fans out there. For that and for saying the cartoon would've been better if the song wasn't in it. In case you're curious, here's the list of all the Oscar Winning Animated Shorts. Turns out yes, some years the winner wasn't particularly family-friendly (2021's "The Windshield Wiper" has a lot of sexy content) but 2015's "Bear Story" beat "World of Tomorrow", and 2016's "Piper" beat "Pear Cider and Cigarettes" and that's when Elizabeth decided family-friendly beats edgy-and-cool most years. As of today the Oscar-nominated animated feature Nimona is still up for free on YouTube! Here's a good write-up of the Hugo Awards debacle. (Short version: the board self-censored anything they thought MIGHT upset the Chinese government, and were as stupid about it as you can possibly imagine.) (And the post doesn't mention the fact that the board did business with a Chinese company that's been sanctioned by the US Government, but we're still waiting to hear how all that turns out.)

Original broadcast date November 2, 2023. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2023/11/binary-system-podcast-383-loki-season-2-episode-4/ Fall is well and truly here, and all we want to do is curl up with a scary movie or TV show, which is why we were delighted to get an episode like Loki season two, episode four. Never mind our quibbles about the bonkers pacing, clunky dialogue, and stupid hot chocolate; we got a scene (yes that scene) that's so disturbing you just have to laugh because it's FREAKING HORRIBLE, in the best possible way. After we finish discussing spaghettification and very small boxes (...lordy that still makes us cringe...) we also talk about the Pear Cider and Cigarettes commentary that's available for free on YouTube. If you haven't seen the short animation you may want to skip the last part of the episode, because we do spoil everything, but if you haven't seen the short animation you really, really should because it's available for free as well. This week's outro is a clip from Bustling Sunrise by Brylie Christopher Oxley. Looking for a present for that hard-to-shop-for person?

Yesterday Lara from Bivouac was explaining the difference different types of cider, tonight we'll flirt with something that is almost a perry but not exactly with Albright pear cider.
This week, we bring you your second (albeit late) dose of holiday fun by talking about Santa's Little Helpers. That's right, elves! First, Cody tells the fascinating story of a real elf-like specimen (that Chris thinks looks like Watto) known as The Gnome of Girona. Then, Chris talks about a type of house elf - known by many names - that uses hay as a brutal weapon. Next, Cody takes us to Iceland to talk about protests against road construction due to elves living on the land. Finally, Chris discusses Malaysian elves called Oran Bunian, who almost stole one young boy from his family. Drinks this week are Pear Cider (recipe below), and mini bottles of champagne.
It's this week's review preview show with Russ, Nick and Dave L. You know the drill by now, innit. All the stuff you'd expect (and a lot that you wouldn't) including playoff disappointment, retained players, Blue Peter time capsules and the moral implications of wearing a Man City shirt to a County game.In the second half we welcome comic, performer, Bradford fan and friend of the podcast(er) Ben Schofield, who joins us to talk formative football experiences, England then and now, and we share our thoughts on the first few days of high-end Euro soccer.All that plus Keith Allen's cock, commentator woes and Dave's discovery in the New World. www.scarfbergarawore.co.uk--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/tsbw/message Subscribe to our Patreon to get exclusive episodes!

Tonight I'm joined by narrator Josh Horowitz and author Maximilian Gray to discuss their experience working together to create an audiobook. Josh and Max knew each other back in high school. When Max finished his novel, Alvin Baylor Lives!, he contacted Josh about narrating the audiobook. We discuss why Max chose to have more of a radio drama feel to the audiobook, how and why Josh approached this book a little differently than he's approached other audiobook narration projects, and how they collaborated during the process. All this over a Wyder's Pear Cider, a Kentucky Mule, and a Gin and Sin! You can find Josh at http://joshhorowitz.com, and on Twitter at @uclafalcon. You can find Max at https://maximiliangray.com.

WELCOME BACK TO SEASON 2! This week we chat to Robert Valley, an animation director based in Canada. Robert has worked on a variety of projects from Aeon Flux, to The Gorillaz, to Tron Uprising. He has also produced comics and short films, including his Massive Swerve series, and his latest film, Pear Cider and Cigarettes. We talk to him about his career, including what it's like working with directors such as Peter Chung, Pete Candeland, and Alberto Mielgo. We get into the trials and tribulations of producing an independent animated film, and the story behind the film itself. Spoiler Alert!

SEGMENT EPISODE! It has been 2 full months since our last one of these so if you don't remember, these are explicit episodes... thar be swears! And there's kind of a lot to swear about. The Fine Brothers really pissed off the internet last week when they tried to trademark "React" for title use, and Marvel yanked fanimation series "X-Men: Danger Room Protocols." On the fun side, Robert Valley finished animation on his animated short film "Pear Cider and Cigarettes" and is using Kickstarted to finish post-production, but what we've seen so far looks awesome. We talk about all the trailers we missed in our time away from animation news discussion, our first animation battle has concluded and was awesome, and we return for RAPID FIRE!
