(00:01):
Okay, hello everyone, coma openeda cartoon, no me, let's see
okay, a little better work onthe sound a little bit. So today
is a fun episode fun other catstoday. Yes, we are going under

(00:23):
the great ThunderCats. So and thisis this is cartoony not yes, this
is cartoon me. Okay, yeah, so we are current do many much
podcasts, Yes, we really do. So. You may have to look
up the information on ThunderCats real quick. While what's the look up? It's

(00:48):
undercats. It is ThunderCats, likeyeah, it was breaking bass in all
A. It was nineteen eighty sixor five nineteen eight. Yes, I
will pull up the information. Yeah, that's the saying. At least pull
up by the I M d P. We can at least do some of
the voice like Voice Cats a bitof Star Trek. The guy who did

(01:15):
the voice of Panthrow. Yes,is he played Cisco's Dan really based on
an Admiral Cartwright in Star Trek?Was it? Is it? Three four,
five and six? Hmm? Yeah? Really that is actually quite interesting

(01:36):
that it was Panthrow the black thunderCat. Yes, you can't. Panther's
black. Yeah, everybody knew Pantherwas black. That's why he was the
coolest thunder cat. So how wasyour favorite thunder cat? Let's start with
that. Well, when it cameto like, I would have to say

(01:57):
besides besides Panther, because Panther wasjust freaking amazing, I would have to
say snarf cheer, no, no, I am. I would probably have
to say it was Jaga the Ghost, the Obie one I'm talking about of

(02:24):
the cat the main cat was kindof the main cats got lion O pan
Throw. I would have to say, like, because like, let's let's
be honest for me, the wayI am, I had to figure crush
on Chitara but Bengali. Yeah,we can even add like the yeah links

(02:49):
so, yeah links so and allthat. Yeah, Like because for me,
like I would, let's say christLike, I would have to say
probably lion O was my faceavorite ofthe original ones, but nineteen jan five.
But like you, now, doyou want to make this one just
all about the nineteen eighty five ordo you want to do we can talk

(03:10):
about it in general, but likewhen you're talking about ThunderCats, you talk
about, well what eighties one thatnobody liked, the Reducts one and I
loved the twenty eleven one. Ithought the animation style was great, the
story was good, Like I waspissed off that they didn't finish it,
But the reason they didn't finish itwas because of toy sales, and it

(03:32):
left out the biggest fucking cliffhanger becausemomra one Lione is about the fucking die
and what was the girl I camein with the girl thundercap Titara No,
not Tatara No. I like,huh, I agree, uh yeah she

(03:53):
yeah, And she was the onewho like kind of leaves like Lione to
die because apparently, like during theinitial attack at the beginning of the series
when they had to flee Thundercat's kingdom, she was trapped down to a bunch
of rubble and yelling for help andnobody came for her, but she could
she could hear people walking away,but nobody would hear her. So she's

(04:15):
that's why she took it out onlike she portrayed lion oh and joined up
with Mamrock. But if we see, I didn't. I didn't care for
the new one at all. Ihated the animation style. You have an
iconic animation style with the ranking basslooking the stuff it's just got because this
is wonderful, like super detailed forits time. Yeah, it was,

(04:45):
and I didn't care for the story, like it fixed the big problem which
Snarf doesn't talk. I didn't likeit. I loved it like it.
I was sad to see it though. Now back on the on the main
characters and stuff. If if wewere like, are we going just playing

(05:06):
regular ThunderCats or or are we justdoing like the whole series that's like,
who's your favorite character period? Yeah, my character period exactly. I thought

(05:27):
it was a retard or decayed.I think it depended on I don't We'll
have to look it up because liketo do different versions, because like now,
that was a lot of fun episodeswhen it came to ThunderCats. But
the one episode that I still couldlike, I still cannot find I legit

(05:51):
think. I don't know if itwas a fever dream or not, but
they were fighting these two gigantic likestat guardian statues that they ended up where
they were either bad or good thatthey had to defeat for some trial.
I am not entirely for sure,but I strictly remember it sounds familiar.

(06:12):
I guess we'll just have to watchevery single episode. Yeah again, because
like the funny thing was, likeI had the exact same problem when it
comes to the episode Tiger Tiger fromBatman, the animated series, where I
would explain this episode the episode,and nobody was like, I do not
remember that. I think you're justmaking things up. Ah. What was

(06:41):
what was your one of your favoriteepisodes? Uh? It was a oh,
let's see of the earlier episodes.I loved that episode where King Arthur
comes to I remember that one.Yeah, the the Undercat's Layer and it's

(07:03):
Momraw and disguise. Yeah, becauseI have an affinity for King Arthur.
Yeah, huh, I wouldn't havenot guessed that, mister Pendragon. But
probably that episode when the you know, the Luna tacks the lunattacks, Yeah

(07:28):
they okay, you remember, okay? Yeah, it was Momra and the
mutants, you know, slithe andall, and they just fucked up and
they could never be undercats and somam raw Unleasha's he releases from their captivity,
the Lunatas and they're from each oneof them is from a moon of
pun Dar. You remember them atall vaguely? Like, because I think

(07:51):
we talked about it before, andI had to look them up. I
vaguely remember each had like a separatepower and they had almost defeated them wrong
years and years before, and thenhe encased them in lava and he went
to them to get them to defeatthe ThunderCats for him after he released him,

(08:13):
and they must did beat the undercats. But my favorite lunattack is Gouy
named tug Mug. He had newlegs. He had like these his torso
like stopped right at his waist,and then he had this like rounded he's
like rounded the orbs as legs.And the moon that he was from had

(08:35):
extremely high gravity, so tug Mugwas ridiculously strong and he shattered the Sword
of Omens, and BiONO was like, I don't know what to do now.
That's my whole personality, is thatfucking sword. They had like an
existential crisis and then he had tohave Oh, wasn't being it was the

(09:00):
White Tiger one, yeah, men, the Sword of Omens, the Blind
one, yeah, the blind yeahno no, no, that was link
so Lins was the blind one?Yeah, but uh, let me see
here, I'm a cast of characters. Bengaly. The one episode that sticks

(09:22):
out to me a lot Bengaly.Yeah, that's his name. He's the
blacksmith one. And I really remembera lot And that's thing. It's it's
a very early on episode. Okay, who was the one who was the
big warrior up in the mountains thatlike had the cat? Oh what was
his name? The cat was snowme out, snow out? What was

(09:46):
his name? Here's a great warriorand he shows up periodically in Whoop's ass
every time. Yes, he does. I need to go to there's a
ThunderCats fan side. I need togo to the wiki. No, this
predates the wiki. Then there waslet's see her. It was into the

(10:11):
good episode. Yeah, did youever read the comics? I did.
I did read some of the comicbooks. I mean there's nothing marveled at
him, like what about because likefor me, I read the uh because
the the end of the series endedon the cliffhanger where he goes into the

(10:33):
Sword of like the Book of Omens, and like apparently during that time in
the comics momar one he ends uplike enslaving all the ThunderCats and like basically
put Wiley Kid and wild Cat ashis personal slaves. No, yeah,

(10:54):
no, I remember that. Yeah, and then like when Lionel came back,
he's shining, you know, todo everything you can to you know,
save the day, like to bringlike you know, to defeat Mamar
and all that stuff. Apparently Iguess it did. And then it just
turned back to the norm. Yeah. It was like amazing comic. Seriously,

(11:15):
Like I loved ThunderCats until they leftThird Earth and went to New Thundera
because every fucking episode somebody had stolenthe gyroscope at the center of the planet
and we gotta go get him orthe New Thundero's gonna spin off until oblivion
every episode. That's saying I vaguelyread job. This female counterpart was like

(11:41):
the guardian of the gyroscope. I'mlike, lady, you you stuff at
your job, but you had ghostno, because I vaguely remember it like
when it came to like especially likewhen we get like talk about that at
your house and love them. Ahserious, like it is. It was

(12:03):
decayed. It like Mamutt. Everybodyloves Mammut baby dog. I just okay,
now I just need to see JimJustice. Just I was fucking Momro.

(12:26):
Ancient Spirits of West Virginia transform thisObeese form into governor thee ever Ruin.
Oh god fucking love it. Itwas a What are some of the
other characters that showed, Well,you know, let's go with the villains.

(12:48):
Who is your favorite of the mutants? M h, I guess probably
the leader. Well yeah, theywere all like they were all completely bumbling,
like they were like except for Slide. Even Slide was probably the most

(13:09):
competent of them. Yeah, Likethat was the big Also, the big
thing I loved about two thousand andeleven about it because they fixed the villains
to where they were actually competent andlike legit, like the little attacks were
competent. Well, I'm talking aboutyour main villains. Also, like with

(13:33):
the sort of Omen's origin, itwas a little different in the really like
different in the twenty eleven series whereapparently, like it was originally supposed to
be meant for mom Raw that hewas about to destroy because he had everybody
in slight. He had the cats, dogs, all the other species enslaved
and sect for them. But thecats followed him like religiously, and then

(14:00):
they rebelled, except that the tigers, and that's why the Tiger plans were
banished, Like, that's why Idon't like about the new one, like
Lufender was destroyed, and then youknow, wander through space crygenically frozen,

(14:24):
and then land on Third Earth whereMamra Like, really, Mamra is a
little justified because these cats come outof nowhere and start telling him how he
should rule Third Earth and he's beenthis was my home before you all showed
up. That's if you don't likewhat Mamra's doing, go to the other

(14:48):
side of New third third and livewith Mamraan Okay, Now that was a
good, good one, right.She was weaker than Mamra, but it
was it was ancient spirits of good. Yeah, got a white pyramid,
I remember. Let's let's see whatwas some of the native species besides the

(15:16):
roboburbals hating them? Oh no,wow, burbos sounds like waspernador? Mm
now that's why Master the Strong.Who did the voice of the roboburbals?

(15:46):
You look it up on the wikieslegit just a picture of what sperator?
Okay, so who did the voicesof Like, who do we have the
voices of ThunderCats? The voices?Oh yeah, let's go with the voice

(16:06):
acting mainly. I mentioned no name. I probably don't do much anymore.
Most of my probably dead. Let'ssee that I am. I wish I

(16:29):
had my tablet so it would beeasier to do this. I'm sorry.
Here we go. Let's see SchnarBob McFadden. Let's see who he did.
Uh so he died in two thousand, Okay, he did. He

(17:00):
did some voices and some of theranking basses Christmas stuff, some of this
additional voices or yeah, like l'sand stuff. Uh, he did,
he was, he did. Hewas the head alf from He was commander
of Star Gazer in the Silverhawks,which was another ranking bass thing. Yeah,

(17:25):
oh he did. Uh did youwatch The Flight of Dragons. I'm
gonna say it. It was aranking bass movie. It was No,
Oh, you need to watch it. It's not the best ranking bass movie.
It's based off of a book calledThe Dragon and the George, and

(17:45):
it's like, it's a really interestingThe book is really interesting because it follows
this whole premise of all dragons dragonscall all humans Georges bye because of the
night George George. Yeah, becausethey assumed that that that's what that was

(18:06):
a human and his name was George, and he slayed a dragon that we're
all called George's. Conversely, wecall all of those dragons dragons because the
dragon quote unquote that Saint George slew, his name was just dragon. So
it's a humongous misunderstanding. Oh okay, very interesting. Yeah, he does

(18:33):
a voice on their Sir sir oronNeville smythe The animation is like as much
as all like I love ranking Bassanimation, this was like I felt like
the leit low budget. Yeah,there's low budgets. Ranking bassoms dragons look
ridiculous. Instead of like a smog, they have like these big, huge

(18:56):
balloon torsos. So we're talking aboutthe relock dragon from Disney or Peach Dragon's
sort of it's it's it's good forwhat it is. I enjoy fighting dragons.
Who else do we go? Let'ssee, that's about all that I
ever did. That's notable. Yeah, seriously, Like his most notable thing

(19:19):
is schnark snark. Oh, Idon't know, and then oh, my
mistake because they sound so similar thatit's not The guy that played animalcarthurright is

(19:42):
panther Bill Cosby's dad from the CosbyShow. They sounded a lot alike.
Erl Hymen is panthera really? OK? Yeah it is is? Yeah,
that's that's that's pan throw in PhillCosmy's dad. That's it. That's yea.

(20:06):
As well as we get here,let's see who uh Larry Kenney was
lying, Oh that's it. Ohyou think you probably got a lot he's
he's lying out just ThunderCats, nothingelse. He's Jaga and ThunderCats roar,

(20:26):
which is kind of funny. Iforgot thundercatch for was the thing? Yeah,
have you seen thundercatch for No?Yeah, he does some extra voices
and video games here and there.Nothing nothing like he does some voices and

(20:48):
tiger Sharks and silver Hawks. Yeah. No, that's Bano is his biggest
credit. Earl Hammond was mam.He died in two thou two. Yeah,
about to think there's probably a goodchunk like is that the same?

(21:10):
Normally if you're the villain, youget a lot of good voice rolls.
Nothing nothing. I mean we're talkinglike and be knockoff movies that came out
after big movies, like the Secretof Anastasia came out after Anastasia. Moses

(21:30):
Egypt's great Prince came out, probablyafter a Prince of Egypt. Yeah,
yeah, that's that's sad. Nothing. I mean, this is a very
very sad. And these people didn'tdo much after that. Let's see who
did. Let's see guitar. You'sactually got a picture of the on IMDb,

(21:53):
so it's they have more success there. Huh. Nothing. I really
interested. Some TV here and there, some grand theft auto, I love
ponytails and a baby, Law andOrder, nothing like this voice. Guy's

(22:23):
dead, nothing Tigra. Let's sayPeter Newman as he do. He's still
alive. Oh, there's some hope. He's major Nikolai Yakhov on Archer.
Oh ship, well he's dead,his character tied. So have you seen

(22:45):
Archer here and there? Yeah?Oh he's the Duke of Zil in the
Felix the Cat movie. Really,I love that fucking movie. And then
it seems like everybody has it seemslike it was in their contracts. You
must do a voice in Tiger Trucksand silver Hawks. Not a lot.

(23:08):
He does a video game here andthere. This is extremely, extremely sad.
I'm afraid to say, what,Why the can Why the cat does
the drugs nobody even there, noteven a picture. He don't even exist.

(23:30):
What's the all cast and crew?I manna voice actress altogether. Oh
let's see. Like the guy didschnarf, he did slide and linkso and
Schnarfer and tug mug and campin bragand driller and I mean a destroyer.

(23:52):
Yeah. So they are legit havingto do mama. They are legit having
to overwork themselves. Yes, herethere's one for you for guitar. Were
you a guitar and lina or tutarand tiger? Mhmm oh tuitar and tiger

(24:17):
Like that's that's why I would preferto be together, okay on line know,
yeah, he's an adult, he'slike mentally twelve years old. Seriously,
he's like this great leader, buthe would just be like obies bbies.

(24:37):
Yeah, huh, Wiley cat,the dumb by, the guy does
tiger, Huh, the lady didtuitar s Wiley kids. This is a
very very sad nine voice CAUs that'sit. This is a very very sad,

(25:03):
very sad cat. Like. Youknow what, I can't understand why
they didn't do anything else because afterThunderCats are like fuck this never again,
mamra, Is that you Why doyou just just specifically sound like so and
so good question. Why Snowman,Yeah, yeah, just Snowman. No

(25:30):
man, our original anything to sellthe toys, lives in the snow.
He's a guy, is a man, yes, Snowman. And he drives
on a big cat, snow meout. That's the thing is like,

(25:52):
no, we can't be too obviouson this one cat. What do yeah?
What noises do cats make me?Snow Meal? Yes, kind of
like they're friends with Snowman and heworks, you know, with them periodically,
and he rides on Snowmow yeah,which is a giant cat. And

(26:18):
the Fender cats are like totally okaywith this. I mean they would be
like if if I came up tosomebody and found out they rode on a
giant, like on Dring the Giant, they rode on on the giant all
four us and he didn't talk,and I was just like, that's not
weird at all. Maybe it's maybethe cat's a gimp. Maybe snow Meow
is like a just like it's afetish for him. Snow Meow is a

(26:41):
gimp. Because like there was apoint like if you remember in the episode
where Snowman shows up, it's likeLiono takes over snow meals, is a
rebel against your owner, like riseabove the oppression and told me I was
just like the Lunatags. Yeah,I remember, Oh God, like these

(27:08):
guys almost took out the ThunderCats becausesome for the longest time, the thunder
Cats would be like, you know, fight the mutants were idiots, and
then occasionally mom La would be like, all right, fine, yesterday blah
blah blah, you know, andthey were just chasing back to his pyramid.
But like the Lunatags showed up likebeat the ship out of him fast.

(27:30):
It was like, oh, wecan't play around with these fuckers.
It was a nice change paste story. Now, what was your like,
how did you first watch ThunderCats CartoonNetwork? That's how That's how we found
out we had camper because when Iwas back in the old age, we

(27:52):
didn't have cable. We had anantenna. Yeah, very in degrees of
success of holding the rabbit ears withten point on stuff. But we can't
remember. We came home. Istinctly remember this. This is like a
cool remembory coming home from school oneday, my dad is home and my
dad's never home the other day backthen, and he had it on Cartoon

(28:18):
Network and ThunderCats was on, andnot only it was like a lot of
people didn't have cable. Cartoon Networkyou had to pay for separately. You
didn't just get that with your cable. You had to pay the busy channel,
HBO. Cartoon Network you had topay for. Yeah, so my
dad had paid for Cartoon Network andhe just didn't know about it or no.

(28:45):
No, he surprised us cable andCartoon Network and cable was only it
was only like thirty three channels,but it was like a step up from
like the eight that we got wereover there. But the network goes on
and you know fer cast on courtyou network. Ass was like immediately enthralled

(29:07):
and like as soon as I camehome the next day, fer Cats was
on. And then that's when youknow Tunami. Yeah, that's back when
Moltar was no, and I wasimmediately hooked. I love the art style,
like the lore. I loved theThunderCats. Sadly, we're gonna have
to cut this thirty minute episode becausewe are still currently at work. So

(29:36):
that was thirty minutes. I know, well, the time flies when you're
when you're ThunderCats home. We didn'teven get to the lunatics that much.
Just tough mug. That's saying we'llhave to I'm saying like, depending on
what our schedules are, we'll haveto come over and we'll do a recording.
So that's such enough for this episodeof Car Card Up.
