Nathan Churney and Joshua Mullinax know how to get the Aqua Teens moving like none other... literally! Today we're joined by these critical ATHF animators who sacrificed everything (and then some!) to create the brilliant show we love today. Well maybe not everything, but they definitely worked their asses off, ya dig? Having touched damn near every bit of ATHF content from S02E01's Super Birthday Snake all the way thru S12E05's Anubis, these fellas are sharing their 20 years of Aqua Teen experience right here, right now... or whenever you listen to this. We'll wait. We're getting into the impact Matt Maiellaro and Dave Willis had on the animation process, Nate and Josh's experience writing on an episode of Aqua Teen, and how great season 3 of Twin Peaks is.
