What’s silly, blue, and might secretly know what’s going on but probably not? A lot of things, but the answer we’re looking for is The Tick. Listen in as Joe and Carlos from Life, Death, and Taxonomy come to talk about The Tick and all the insanity that comes along with that.
Learn such things as:
- What disease really should have been included to make this game more realistic?
- How did The Tick originate anyway? Because it’ actually really weird.
- Who did the cartoon manage to get as voice actors? I’ll bet you know a lot of them.
- And so much more!
