On this week’s episode, we’re joined by the excellent Reese (@DarthGuerrilla) of Gaming Buzzed to tackle the “kid-friendly” animated emotional trauma of 1988’s The Land Before Time and 1987’s The Brave Little Toaster. We explore depictions of loss, abandonment, and grief in kids media, the existential horror of tar pits, and whether The Brave Little Toaster is anti-capitalist or just anti-repairman.
