Hey everyone! Welcome to the official blog for Cel Block, the animation podcast. Each week, we, your hosts, Arthur "Big-Z" Thomas and Matt "Microschneck" Schneck, will be talking about animation of all types, be it from TV, movies, video games, the internet, or wherever else we find stuff to talk about. Some weeks, it'll just be the two of us, but we'll also have guests in from time to time to weigh in with their opinions.

Cel Block is for you young at heart fans of cartoons...but not for kids. Big-Z has a potty mouth.

Let your voice be heard at celblockpodcast@gmail.com and suggest future shows, or just tell us how you like the podcast. And, of course, don't forget to tell your friends!
