    On this episode of Toon Travel Paul and Faith go back in time to 1984 to look at the incredibly weird fall preview special “Laugh Busters” featuring a combination of animation and live action done the cheapest way possible. Featuring a confusing plot, D-list celebrities, and horrifying mascots this show baffled our hosts in ways that no program has before. But hey where else can you see The Smurfs, Alvin & The Chipmunks, Mr. t, and Kitt the talking car all in one piece of media?

    It's a bittersweet moment on the T.O.O.N (Temporal Observation & Orbital Navigation) machine as we've reached our first semester finale! Nolan Duncan joins Paul and Faith as we look back at one of his nostalgic favorites: “Darkwing Duck!” It's not just any episode of Darkwing Duck, no it's “Time & Punishment” a surprisingly dark time travel episode that's also a warning about authoritarianism.We also discussed the history of the larger Disney Afternoon, Darkwing Duck's robust voice cast, and Nolan's unusual connection with the show.

    We also discuss a new batch of headlines and in place of our sponsor a very unusual (but catchy) PSA. Finally we round things out with a super villain guessing game and some closing thoughts on the series thus far!

    2025/04/10

    Toon Travel returns with a new episode! Faith is back just in time to take a look at “Tales From The Cryptkeeper” a show which has no right to be as entertaining as it is. I mean think about it it's an children's adaptation of a late night R-rated horror series based on a comic book so controversial that parents burned it in the street! Yet as crazy as this concept sounds our hosts found a lot to enjoy about this show including a pair of endearing protagonists, a witty script, and a cool art style!Elsewhere we explore the headlines for 1993 including the real reason we don't have more outdoor boxing events and Paul embarks on an ill-fated sponsorship deal. Finally we play a rousing round of the new game show that's sweeping the nation: “Crypt, Dark, or Creep!” So hop aboard the T.O.O.N (that's Temporal Observation & Orbital Navigation) machine, grab some cereal, and kick back & enjoy the ride in the latest episode of Marshall University's favorite time traveling retro-cartoon podcast!
