Dan Povenmire (Phineas and Ferb, Hamster & Gretel, Family Guy) spent some time in the studio with Wayne and Jonathan talking about all things animation! Since the age of 12, Dan always knew he wanted to draw. From his start on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and the Simpsons, to his writing and animating days at Rocko’s Modern Life and Family Guy, all the way to creating his own hit show Phineas and Ferb and Hamster & Gretel. Together, they discuss his early days of unknowingly meeting George R.R. Martin, losing his southern accent from Mobile, Alabama and transitioning from “Y’all” to “You all,” and improvising a brand new animated show with Wayne and Jonathan that will surely be greenlit at Disney Channel anytime now (with some minor adjustments).
