//podcastplus.net/feed/hyperfixation-station~a4facb4c Choo-choo motherfuckers! Here at Hyperfixation Station, hosts Matteo Boyd and Margaret Gorman take a close and critical look into their shared hyperfixation -- cartoons! But don't picture yourself in a CalArts classroom: these two gays have taste AND class. M&M will have you cracking up along the way, from insisting on discussing each cartoon's "vibe" to accidentally putting themselves on blast via the characters they're obsessed with.Subscribe for in-depth discussions of animated movies and TV shows, as well as special episodes about influential creators and the history of the medium.
