Cartoon fans from all over Los Angeles gathered at Flapper’s Comedy Club Monday night to get “Animan-y” and “Totally Insane-y” at the return of Rob Paulsen’s hit podcast, “Talkin’ Toons”.
Paulsen, best known for his roles in Animaniacs, Pinky and the Brain, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, began “Talkin’ Toons” as labor of love to give back to all the young artists that are passionate about voice acting and want to join the the business themselves. Each week, Paulsen meets with one or more guest actors to talk about their careers and what they did to get where they are today. Since it’s inception, “Talkin’ Toons” has undergone various transformations including an audio podcast, a live comedy show, and even an on-camera web-series.
Getting back to the roots of performing the show live, Paulsen gathered a slew of guests from the cast of “Transformers: Rescue Bots”. Guests included Lacey Chabert, Maurice LaMarche, Shannon McKain, Steve Blum, Parvesh Cheena, DC Douglas, Imari Williams, and LeVar Burton. Each of the actors shared stories from their recording sessions, what is was like to work with one another, as well as what a family they’ve all become. They also each shared their experiences on other shows individually and what prepared them for each.
All in all, Talkin’ Toons still proves to be a vibrant, funny, and insightful podcast guaranteed to satisfy, and maybe even educate, any aspiring voice actor.

Transformers Rise Of The Beast will definitely be a movie I’m going to watch repeatedly.

This was an epic movie overall. What else can I say without giving spoilers? Not a lot else, unfortunately, but I will try. So the start was interesting as it takes place in 1994, Transformers: Rise of the Beasts takes the audience on a globetrotting adventure with the Autobots and introduces a whole new faction of Transformers – the Maximals – to join them as allies in the existing battle for Earth. There are quite a few hidden gems to look for. The humor in this one was excellent definitely the 90s were everywhere in this movie.
The action was awesome as a Transformers movie should be and it does have a decent storyline. The film also has Great references to the older Transformer properties as well. As a major fan of the beast war series, it was awesome to see that version of the universe brought to the big screen. However, there were some moments of eh, been done many times. But just a couple despite being another Transformers movie. but this one did give more life to the series for me to be intrigued to see where it goes. The movie is a good 2 hours long so it goes at a good pace.
But with that being the only bad thing, in my opinion, it is a great theater movie. I think it added some freshness to the franchise. That with a nice blend of the 90s nostalgia. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. This is Chris, an honest review writer until the next movie, see you next time.
