The first Simpson’s clip show was entitled “So It’s Come to This…The Simpson’s Clip Show.” Well, here’s my version of that. Of course, when they do a clip show in animation, it’s essentially done to build in an easier show in the middle of the season, sort of as a break for the animators. That’s not exactly how it worked out for me…I’ve been gathering the clips and editing this thing for a couple of weeks! I’m sure it’s horribly self-indulgent, so I apologize for that…but I wanted to showcase the amazing artists and guest I’ve had in the past year, so hopefully it’s a quick and enjoyable listen. All of these episodes are available in the archive, so be sure to go back and take a listen to the ones that pique your interest.
And, of course, you’ve all been waiting for the chance to hear me do a rap as Captain Jean Luc Picard, and at the end of this show, your dreams will all come true.
Big stuff awaits Tall Tale Features in the coming months, and I’m lining up some great guests. Thanks so much to the amazing stable of artists who gave their time to be a part of my little slice of the podcast world, and especially to you all for listening. The show is growing nicely, and it’s a privilege to have such a great group of listeners! Keep your comments, emails, and tweets coming!

That was excellent. It was so great hearing all those clips! Reminded me of the ones I enjoyed listening to, and the ones I missed!
And that rap. Just… woah. That’s an instant classic.
Great compilation of clips, Tom. And the bonus material was quite … um … disturbing. I mean “entertaining.”
Hi Tom..Happy New Year…hope it is a good one for you….just wnated to say how much I love your podcasts…I have downloaded them all and listen to them constantly while I work…not only are they entertaining but I have learnt alot as well as being encouraged in keepin’ on cartooning….just wanted to say what a great end of year podcast…it was so interesting hearing all those opinions back to back….cheers from Australia….Phil
Nifty! I didn’t know about this podcast site…I need to stop in and give it a listen!
It’s a beautiful site I must admit and a wonderful podcast. I too hope to be at that level of Tom’s one of these days
Thanks for all the great comments, folks! It was a blast to edit that show, if not a gigantic pain in the butt. About halfway through, I was convinced I was creating something terribly self-indulgent and crappy, but people seem to have liked it! Next year, I’ll just start earlier.
Chuck: What, Jean Luc Picard rapping is disturbing? Wait til you hear my Sean Connery Metallica tribute.
Phil: It was a nice new year, and you can see that we have an all new site, so thanks for coming! I’m thrilled my voice is bouncing around down under! You do great work yourself, so thanks for all your support.
Pam! I hope you do come back for more…there’s 70 other episodes with some great artists out there. I’m going to dig through the House of Muses archive…it looks stunning, and I’m a huge history buff!
Kurt: Phooey…you do amazing work over at TGT…live podcasting is an art in and of itself, and you guys always put on an entertaining show!
