Episode recorded: June 14th, 2025 (06/14/2025)
This is where me and my new co-host Madzy Williams will be talking about the adult-only, French-language anthropomorphic animal puppet movie about the notorious Marquis during the French revolution and it has a talking peepee. And we discuss how I could turn that into a cut-out animated show made for late-night television audiences.
But here are a few things I would like to share.
One, Meredith will be back next month. We will be talking about a movie that she has mentioned in the end of the first episode.
Two, the composer of this podcast’s intro and outro music, Pupceleste, is soon moving out and need some money. I would like you all to donate some to her moving expenses. Her ko-fi link address is: https://www.ko-fi.com/pupceleste.
Three, there are protests going on around the world. And we recorded this during the NoKing protest on June the 14th. If you are still planning to go outside and participate in local demonstrations, here are my advice: Have your mask up, have your goggles on, bring a water bottle, carry some extra cash, don’t take photos of protestors, have your phone airplane mode on, and write down emergency contact and legal counsel numbers on your arm. Stay safe wherever you are.
Finally, this will be a very special episode in a way that it’s perhaps our first NSFW episode. We will be talking about the lowest of the lows in the history and it will contain some triggering subjects.
To list most of CONTENT WARNINGS: the mention of both actual and alleged sex offenders – such as the Marquis de Sade, Roman Polanski, Bill Cosby, Justin Roiland, and John Kricfalusi, sexual assaults, rape jokes, coprophilia, fascism, furries, a talking penis, and live-action remake of Disney animated movies.
And also, this podcast is not sponsored by Raytheon.

I would like to give a shout out to French YouTuber Nicolas Delage for spending 4 years to make a video on this movie and meeting with people behind it. His video was very helpful for my research.
