with Glen Rockney (@Rarecandypod1) of RARE CANDYGlen returns to BC to talk about the underrated and overlooked non-Wallace & Gromit short films of Aardman Animations in a conversation that touches on memory and nostalgia and the childhood overhearing of adult conversations. Lip Synch was a series of five animated shorts commissioned by Channel 4 covering animals, war, crime, Shakespeare, and urban claustrophobia. This ep is a spiritual successor to the Peter Gabriel episode of Rare Candy.Listen to RARE CANDY
