Nicholas Ybarra and Bella Efstratis reunite to dive into the whimsical world of animation on this week's episode of the Gimme Three Podcast!
Join us as we explore six amazing short films that highlight the magic of both stop-motion and 2D animation. Each film offers a unique style and concept, making this episode a must-listen for animation lovers and anyone looking for a powerful experience in under 20 minutes.
Here's what we have on the docket:

- The Hole (1962)
- Affairs of the Art (2021)
- Mémorable (2019)
- Twenty Something (2021)

From realism to claymation, from the serious to the fun, these animated shorts have something for everyone! (Had to throw in a rhyme because you know Nicholas loves his rhymes!)
