Episode 220 :: Lightning Dogs Play Dead!

THE LIGHTNING DOGS RETURN!

The Lightning Dogs are everything we ever loved about sci-fi animation. Tune in as we brainstorm our 80s-inspired, post apocalyptic, action figure-ready, cartoon universe!

This episode brings our two part Lightning Dogs adventure to a close... and that's not all! We embarked on this grand experiment two years ago; taking a crazy, nostalgic notion to epic extremes. Now, the first leg of The Lightning Dogs' conceptual journey comes to an end. But before we announce what comes next, we're taking one last ride through The Wasteland.

Join Cap, Tony, and Doug as they elaborate on The Lightning Dogs' mission to Earth. What did they know and when did they know it?! Venturing to the planet of your gods is not a mission to be taken lightly. We also look for inspiration in building the world of The Wasteland - both the expected (classic rock album covers) and the unexpected (apocalypse prophecy). What pop culture characters do The Lightning Dogs take after? When does Glampire show his nefarious hand? And what's the deal with that "plant guy", anyway? These and many other mysteries will be mulled over in this furry finale! HOOOOwwwwl!
