Dan & Swampy redefined animation for Gen Z via Phineas and Ferb & Milo Murphy’s positivity & ingenuity! With Candace Against the Universe & Disney+ on the way, we’ll talk crossover secrets, timelines, and animation industry changes! Every fan of Phineas and Ferb, Milo Murphy’s Law, Pete the Cat, and animation in general will see something special in this one! We’ll even get into some talk about earlier projects Dan and Swampy worked on, such as The Simpsons and Family Guy! There’s a bit of backstory to why this interview was so important! We can’t even being to tell you how infinitely MeGa-Special this interview is to us! This is the 10 Year Anniversary of our very first interview with Dan Povenmire and Swampy Marsh. Back in February, 2009, 8 year-old Piper Reese, on her 2nd day in LA, made her first trip to the Walt Disney Animations studios to do an interview at Phineas and Ferb’s headquarters in the Frank G. Wells building on the Disney Studios lot. After a smile from Courtney Thorne Smith on the way into the building, Piper was greeted by every single member of the Phineas and Ferb team. She was treated like a visiting princess (everyone there knew her name when she arrived). Dan and Swampy took the time to answer every question, show her all around their studio, and introduce her to every person she walked by. Dan explained the animation process and showed her his earliest sketches for Phineas and Ferb. Swampy showed his his shark-chomped Phineas & Ferb surfboard. They even gave her a tour around the Disney Studios Lot and through the special underground passageway where Walt had animators carry their hand-drawn cells to keep them safe from the elements. In our 12+ year history, it’s still at the top of our list of special days. Every time we’ve seen Dan or Swampy, they’ve taken the time to do an interview or ask how she’s doing. In an Industry that can be rough (to say the least), Dan and Swampy have been two shining examples of great people who love what they do and have constantly reminded us of the good side of the entertainment Industry. At an early age, Piper got a great sense for how the animation side of the Industry can often be a very special and different end of the business. We’ve seen that repeat through the years with others in the animation field, whether we’ve been at Disney Animation, Nickelodeon, or Dreamworks. There’s something different that isn’t always as easy to recognize in the live-action side. So, flash forward to 10 years later. It’s been years since we’ve had a chance to interview Dan and Swampy together (the last one was probably on the red carpet at the Phineas and Ferb Across the 2nd Dimension premiere). With ten years having passed since the first one and the success that Phineas and Ferb went on to, we really wanted to do a new interview and give a little extra focus on Dan and Swampy themselves in addition to getting into details about Phineas and Ferb and Milo Murphy’s Law and Surfer Jack Productions, Swampy’s own production company that is producing an animated version of the Pete the Cat book series on Amazon. For this one, we did an intro on the spot at the studio instead of a separate recording. We’ve got some graphic and sound thrown in, but this interview is about the shows, answering some fangirl/fanboy questions, learning about animation, and sharing the visit with you guys! Piper Reese (imdb) (host) is a high-energy, real, down-2-Earth 19 year old actor, MPAA accredited show host, and GenZ / Millennial Internet personality. She's conducted over 950 interviews with A-listers, producers, directors, studio execs, etc. Piper covers large scale events and on-set publicity for theme parks, corporations, and every major studio in Hollywood. As an actress, Piper is recognized from her recurring-turned-lead role on Nickelodeon/CiTV’s Deadtime Stories and multiple guest starring roles.

Navia Robinson is here! She’s Nia Baxter on Raven’s Home D’Asia in Being Mary Jane Janie on The Vampire Diaries & Rosie in Free Rein! Plus Piper talks Michael Poryes (co-crator of That’s So Raven) and makes an appeal to Disney Channel to bring back more awesome shows from the kids live action Golden Age. (Yes we’re very excited about Terri Minsky’s Lizzie McGuire reboot too!) So this all went down on the red carpet at Universal Studio’s Halloween Horror Nights 2019! We actually didn’t know that Navia would even be there until checking in so she was a pretty kewl surprise! Navia Ziraili Robinson is one of many talented Disney Channel young actors from the Atlanta area (including Raven Symone). Tip for actor who think they need to be in LA to get started: So many actors actually get their start in the South! Jennifer Stone, Leighton Meester and Selena Gomez are from Texas. Bella Thorne, Bailey Madison, Johnny Depp, Adam Sandler (and Piper Reese) are all from South Florida. Demi Lovato is from New Mexico. You can start anywhere! Debby Ryan actually got started acting in Wiesbaden Germany! Yup! Ya need to get to work guyz! OK…back to Navia! So Navia Robinson was in a bunch of commercials before being invited by Disney execs to a two-week acting intensive boot camp in LA. From there she went on to appearing with Gabrielle Union in BET’s Being Mary Jane the Netflix series Free Rein and eventually Raven’s Home in 2017! In this interview Piper and Navia get into the fun questions: wardrobe who messes up most on set (and Navia doesn’t go with the standard answer we usually hear) and what’s coming up for Raven’s Home season 3! So sit back and relax for all 3 minutes and check it out guys!

We’re talking CW’s Arrowverse MeGa-Crossover Crisis on Infinite Earths, Tom Welling & Erica Durance from Smallville & our unseen Ashley Scott interview! Yup! Huntress Helena Kyle from Birds of Prey! This is a major HuMoNGoID geeked-out DC Comics episode and we’re getting into everything we know about the guests in Crisis on Infinite Earths to date! We’ll start off with Brandon Routh! Piper was five years old when we took her to see Brandon in Superman Returns at a movie theater in Miami! We would have never thought that after all these years as Ray Palmer / ATOM from DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, Brandon would “return” to his roots as Superman in an Arrowverse crossover! Seriously!? That’s really going all-out! Next, Smallville! OK - Adam here. This one is my all-time favorite show. There were a few of quirks episodes over the ten year run, but overall, the writing, cinematography, and acting were just awesome (especially those discussions between Lex and Lionel Luthor! (We still joke about when Michael Rosenbaum (Lex Luthor) was known as “Sexy Lexy” in the early Smallville days). The Berlanti team has said more than once that without Smallville, there wouldn’t have been an Arrowverse. They’ve payed homage here and there in the past, but now…they’re bringing Tom Welling and Erica Durance, Lois and Clark, back together! We’re going to revisit the Kent Farm and see what they’re up to 10 years later! I’m super-excited about this one. If you like Superman lore and haven’t seen Smallville, you’re seriously missing out! Definitely get a hold of it and start watching! We’re not finished yet! Next, we’re jumping over to an exclusive, unseen interview we did with Ashley Scott, aka The Huntress, Helena Kyle, about her role on Birds of Prey. (YES! She went by “Kyle” in the cult classic series instead of Helen Wayne.) Helena is the daughter of Batman and Batwoman…Bruce Wayne and Selena Kyle! She’s from the bronze storyline (for those comic geeks out there). The new Birds of Prey movie with Margot Robbie involves a different iteration of the Huntress, Helena Bertinelli. Birds of Prey was a cult classic that only got one season! We highly recommend picking up the DVD! It’s got a cartoon mini-serious featuring some of the villainous women of the DC universe! So, there’s a LOT of info in this episode and a super-special and rare interview with a younger Piper! Let us know whatchya think of this retro-style Piper’s Picks intro and what’s happening in the CW DC Arrowverse! Thank you so much for watching, guyz!
