Aural Favours

Two massive, simultaneous deadlines are kicking my sexy behind right now, so this one'll be brief. Just to say that April's Skwigly Podcast has gone up, with one day of the month left to spare.
Midst chat of Disney layoffs, LucasArts nostalgia and unexpected TV show cancellations Steve chats to Brian Cosgrove, one of the UK animation world's most important luminaries, as well as Kevin Schreck, director of "The Persistence of Vision", a documentary exploring Richard Williams and his doomed passion project "The Thief and The Cobbler".
Continuing in the vein of gifted youngsters chronicling troubled productions, I chat to Thad Komorowski, author of "Sick Little Monkeys" (the book I've championed previously, which tells the tumultuous story behind "The Ren & Stimpy Show").
We also have an update from Dan Greaves of Tandem on his Kickstarter success and a competition where you can win a copy of "The Art of Short Films", a fabulous collection of independent animated shorts artwork. Listen to the podcast for specifics on how to enter and get liking and sharing on our Skwigly Facebook page!
