Fantastic podcast. I love tuning in to this. I would love to hear you thoughts on Ralph Bakshi’s films. I’m a big fan of his and would love to hear him on your show. Thank you so much for making these podcasts and I can’t wait to hear more.

i’m new-ish to animating, and i’m learning as much from these podcasts and comments, as from my “formal” education. thanks so much and keep up the great work!

I just want to say that it’s good to have you back in the world of podcasts Clay. Like many others, I have dreams of one day working in the animation industry. I’m 27, have a degree in graphic design, and have what many would consider a good job in that field. However, I get little satisfaction from the work I do and it’s because I settled for graphic design when what I really want to do is animate. Your podcast and the guests on your show have helped inspire me to follow my dream. I feel like I have gotten a late start, but I hope to be studying with Animation Mentor soon. Maybe someday our paths will cross and I can thank you in person, but untill then, keep up the good work Clay.

Great show, Clay!

Dale is one of my heros even though he’s many years my junior. Did you know I assisted him on Disney’s “Robin Hood?”

Dale was just a kid when I met him at Disney in the seventies. Now, he’s gone on to prove himself as a Directing Animator. The “Old Guys” who mentored him would indeed be proud of what he’s accomplished.

I know I am.

Greg - FYI, I know some of the shows are not in the Enhanced Podcast feed yet. I haven’t converted them yet but I will! Thanks for stopping by.

Glad to hear that Animation Mentor will be sponsoring this podcast, great partnership. I just noticed the Enhanced Podcast and I have switched my subscription to it. I just wanted to warn people that switching to the enhanced podcast may make you want to listen to each show one more time. I cannot wait for the AM newsletter exclusive interview. Keep up the great work!

Jason - Doing this podcast continually surprises me in different ways. The fact that Larry commented and you were moved to connect with him here - well, it just warms my heart. Thanks for that!

Dan - I think you’re referring to the Burny podcast. We were just saying it could totally be a viable short to resurrect. I don’t have any knowledge of that happening though.

Andy - That’s my favorite type of feedback. It’s cool to play my part in getting people to push themselves to take animation to a new place some day. I hope that doesn’t come off as too lofty, but it does make this rewarding.

Adrian - You’re very welcome. I love old school stories - makes me think of vikings passing down legends from one generation to the next. I’m just trying to get this generation so spill their stories for us and the next generation. Good luck at AM.

Uncle Eddie - I’m always excited when bloggers I read comment here - welcome! Thanks for commenting. Part two will be in about a week-and-a-half. Stay tooned!

Wow! A terrific talk with Dale Baer! The description of the “gentlemen’s club,” and the part where he felt alienated by the Banjo people were particularly interesting. I can’t wait to hear part 2!
