    Hanging Out with Dana Snyder, Matt Maiellaro, Jay Wade Edwards, and John Brestan
    Jan 5 2026
    Today on the podcast we're joined by four certified* Aqua Teen legends: Matt Maiellaro, Dana Snyder, Jay Wade Edwards, and John Brestan. Without these guys, Aqua Teen would suck ass - and this podcast episode would be a lot lonelier. In this buffet of an episode, we're talking about the dead tech that Aqua Teen was founded on, adult swim pilots that never got finished, standards and practices being angry about Spacecataz, and why none of us are opening up Al Roker's cookbook. I mean, come on. How good could it be? Anyways, make like Jeff Goldblum and get as close as possible to being a fly on the wall at adult swim.*Legend status certified by the Dancing Is Forbidden Committee in Aqua Teen Excellence and Legacy FoundationR E F E R E N C E S• Stomp!

  • Creature from Plaque Lagoon with Todd Redner

    Creature from Plaque Lagoon with Todd Redner
    Dec 1 2025

    Don't try and get any sort of nest egg going, because all it'll do is get your teeth knocked out. That's the lesson I've learned from this episode. Aqua Teen art director and character designer Todd Redner joins the show to give us invaluable information behind the creation of Creature from Plaque Lagoon — he'll trade one fact for every tooth you'll offer him. We're talkin' Tooth Fairy lore, Todd seeing his 2D characters in 3D on Zombie Ninja Pro-Am, and making Wongburger — oops, sorry; Chatterman — in his new tooth form. Other topics discussed include how real life doesn't always look real in art, corporations only wanting to make cartoons for as cheap as possible, and getting in trouble with your mom for posting cartoon wieners on your blog. I also think I figured out who is actually voicing Wongburger, but.... I just don't know anymore, man.
