Bill Plympton

[laughs] This one was crazy.

Week 37, Bill Plympton week.

Bill Plympton, for anyone who does not know, because I did not know, he is an animator of, like, surrealism and...

I don't- It's like the...

It's so hard to describe his art.

Yes, yes, yes.

Boss Bill, Laia, and Sugar Steve are with us.

Woo! Apparently, unpaid Bill met a woman named Lady Sunshine.

Whoa!

And he left us a Dear John note that said he ain't never coming back.

Sing

it, Steve!

And I'll be honest, I think Bill can agree with me, Boss Bill can agree that the Gems of Discovery, for this episode alone, rates a 10 on the OSHIP meter.

And I wouldn't be at all surprised if he was influenced by this.

But I almost felt like I was watching a Bill Plimpton film.

Yeah, yeah.

You know, it's got that same kind of, you know, short little humorous vignettes type of format.

I was, I was reading this Cartoon Brew article about it.

Bill Plympton did part of it.

I'm like, "Hello."

Oh, that, that makes actually a lot of sense.

I guess my personal animation journey is, like, while we were doing the fish stuff, I applied to, like, a million animation jobs.

And then I eventually, um, got a pr- producer job for, uh, Bill Plympton, who's, like, this old independent animator guy.

Oh, wow.

Um, and, uh, and so yeah, I pr- was a producer for Bill Plympton for, like, about a year and a half on his, um, latest feature called Slide.

Um, and so yeah, you know, I learned a lot from Bill.

He's a genius.
