Kevin Saint

After tackling their favorite cartoons last week, it occurred to your intrepid co-hosts that an integral part of the animation experience was the music. Every episode of Saturday morning TV not only had action, humor and engaging characters — it also had a theme song. And, let's be frank: some of them absolutely SLAPPED. So even though the music was PART of the experience, the opening themes to our favorite cartoons took on a life of their own over the decades. Think about it: you stop any rando on the street and ask them to sing a few bars of "The Flintstones" theme, and eight times outta ten, it's going to happen. So it's time once again to dive into the colorful world of cartoons. But this time, Saint and Jim are playing the hits. CONTENT WARNING: there are some sensitive subjects covered in the news segment. So nobody will be hurt if you skip ahead to the bouncy part.
