Drawing Controversy

About Drawing Controversy

Cartoons, drawings, animations, and mere doodles always run the risk of upsetting people due to their explicit imagery, their attacks on the very powerful, or for just being so wacky and subversive! Drawing Controversy interviews pop culture critics, animation experts, and professional cartoonists to discuss the world’s most interesting art form. Hosted by Jordan LHH.

   Cracked.com writer, Mark Hill, joins Jordan to examine the downward spiral DILBERT creator Scott Adams has gone down in the last few years.

    2. Luke Y. Thompson on BEAVIS & BUTT-HEAD and the Long-Lasting Relevancy of Mike Judge's Creations

    For a special DRAWING CONTROVERSY encore episode, Jordan is joined by film critic, Luke Y. Thompson, to make sense of MTV’s idiotic, destructive, and yet somehow lovable duo, Beavis and Butt-Head. Topics of discussion include the origins of Beavis and Butt-Head, the real-life outrage the cartoon generated, the related works of Mike Judge (B&B’s creator), and the strange way these two relics of 1990s culture have aged. Jordan and Luke also review the 2022 film, Beavis and Butthead Do the Universe, and ponder the new Paramount+ revival series. Find Luke (@lytrules) on IG (https://www.instagram.com/lytrules/?hl=en) and Twitter.
