THE PRETTY LITTLE PODCAST!
Join Deadbeat Chad, Chucky Sleaze and Just Jess in this pop culture catch-all show as we break down and discuss everything from movies, cult classic TV shows, video games, music, tier lists, anime, and other freakishly weird topics that our deranged little minds are drawn to.

Once again we pull from the animation well of MTV to discuss The Maxx, a strange animated series based on comic veteran Sam Keith's (Wolverine, The Sandman, Ojo) 35 issue comic series of the same name. This stream of conscience psychedelic road trip of an animated series has a lot going on...like, a whole lot. Although muddled down with a convoluted plot that is loosely strung together with questionable character motivations, The Maxx still holds up strongly to the test of time in the visual department of animation history, even pioneering some of the tricks we would see in cartoons that came out after this. Can plot and character development take a back seat to visual appeal for something this ambitious to succeed, or did it underperform on every fundamental level to remain relevant in the modern zeitgeist? Chad and Jess are back to talk about their experience. Bon Appetit!
