Every episode, Nate and Jenni watch and discuss a different Warner Brothers animated short (or related media). What can the Tunes teach us about comedy, life, and entertainment? At the end of each episode, they rate the short on gags, art, whimsy, and storytelling.
Nate and Jenni discuss Space Jam in 16 fewer minutes than it would take to watch the film. The power of the human cast, the stillness of the toons, and nineties corporate whatevers are all discussed in this loosey-goosey change of pace.

Hair Raising Hare
Jenni and Nate enjoyed this Chuck Jones short from 1946 in which Peter Lorre has the role of a lifetime, introducing our favorite monster. However, this short begs the question, is Bugs his best self when he's in danger? Or just when a sexy robot is involved?
