The PowerPuff Girls and Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends Executive Linda Simensky

It's safe to say without Linda Simensky, that we wouldn't have the level of animation that we have today. With shows like Powerpuff Girls, Courage the Cowardly Dog, Rocko's Modern Life, Ed, Edd n Eddy, Rugrats, Doug, Ren and Stimpy and as well as so many more. Well, we might still have those shows, but they wouldn't be the outstanding cartoons and spectacular animation that we know and love today. She fostered a playground for these creators to work in that exuded the best material during the animation renaissance from the early 90's until now. The aforementioned creators of the shows up above know just how hard Mrs. Simensky worked and went to bat for them on a regular basis. And in Some cases as she details it (PowerPuff Girls) was so close to not getting made, but with her tutelage, never give up mentality and pure adoration for this median (animation) is the reason we can look back so fondly over the last 30 years of animation and say, my childhood was great! Linda is the head of Animation at Duolingo, as well as a professor at the University of Pennsylvania with classes like, the history of American Animation, The Animation of Disney and so many other fantastic courses!Follow Linda: https://www.facebook.com/linda.simenskyFollow Us:Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/whats-in-my-head-podcast/id1604643239Amazon: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/8aa4eb77-f313-490e-88fe-9368559a6635/whats-in-my-head-podcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/nmyheadpodGoogle: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9tZWRpYS5yc3MuY29tL25teWhlYWRwb2QvZmVlZC54bWwInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/nmyheadpodSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7lKoC7V7kfuNUhCxKZSxsL?si=ZnoyUEYmTmy8ES2PDPMFNATwitter: https://twitter.com/nmyheadpodYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/c/WhatsInMyHeadPodcast/featuredDon't forget to subscribe and follow us across all social media platforms.

Ruth Clampett: Author and Daughter of Legendary Animation Director Bob Clampett!

Ruth Clampett is this weeks guest! Ruth, an author, co owner and founder of Clampett Studio Collections and daughter of the legendary Warner Brothers animator and director, Bob Clampett. I’m this episode we talk about her dad, Bob, how he got into the business, working with the other legendary Warner Brothers directors and so much more. It’s hard to state just how important Bob Clampett is. My earliest memory of any cartoons was “The Great Piggy Bank Robbery”. Until this chat I have had very vivid dreams of this cartoon for many weeks leading up to this and not realizing it why. It wasn’t until talking to Ruth that this was my first cartoon experience and I’m so thankful that it was a Clampett cartoon. Out of all of the directors, I truly feel like Bob and Tex are my guys. I truly hope that you enjoy this episode, I know I sure as did!Follow Ruth: https://m.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1390057254 Follow Ruth: https://www.instagram.com/ruth_clampett/Follow Ruth: https://mobile.twitter.com/RuthyWritesFollow Ruth: https://clampettstudio.comFollow and Subscribe to the What's In My Head Podcast across all social media platforms and wherever you listen to podcasts!Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/whats-in-my-head-podcast/id1604643239Amazon: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/8aa4eb77-f313-490e-88fe-9368559a6635/whats-in-my-head-podcast Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/nmyheadpodGoogle: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9tZWRpYS5yc3MuY29tL25teWhlYWRwb2QvZmVlZC54bWwInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/nmyheadpodSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7lKoC7V7kfuNUhCxKZSxsL?si=ZnoyUEYmTmy8ES2PDPMFNAStitcher: Check out What's In My Head Podcast https://listen.stitcher.com/yvap/?c=sharelink&af_dp=stitcher://show/704938&af_web_dp=https://www.stitcher.com/show/704938&deep_link_value=stitcher://show/704938Twitter: https://twitter.com/nmyheadpodYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/c/WhatsInMyHeadPodcast/featured Don't forget to subscribe and follow us across all social media platforms.
