Cartoons for Grown-Ups

The Animashow - Episode 10 - Season 6 Annecy Festival - 2025 Special Edition SUMMARY A talking horse, really?! In this new episode of The Animashow, my guest is Raphael Bob-Waksberg — the brilliant mind and showrunner behind the groundbreaking animated series « BoJack Horseman », and now the creator of « Long Story Short », his brand-new Netflix animated show premiering at Annecy Festival 2025. With wit, depth, and disarming honesty, Raphael opens up about animation as a powerful medium for adult storytelling, the delicate balance between humor and heartbreak, and why embracing absurdity often leads to emotional truth. A bold and inspiring conversation with one of the most original voices in animation today. A special retrospective celebrating Annecy Festival 2025! Enjoy the podcast!
