A Cat. A Dog. Two Microphones. What could go wrong?
WNYC Studios teamed up with kids' television veterans Adam Peltzman and Koyalee Chanda (WallyKazam!, The Backyardigans, Blue's Clues) to create the top audio programming network's first-ever children's podcast: This Podcast Has Fleas. Rhumba worked on recording, sound designing, and mixing the series here at Dubway Studios. We are proud to present the series as its first episodes premiere this week! Take a listen to a preview via WNYC below:
This Podcast Has Fleas is a six-episode children's comedy show starring Jay Pharoah (SNL) as Jones, the trash-talking cool cat with a fondness for auto-tune, and Emily Lynne as Waffles the dog, who is eager to please and loves a good sleepover party. The two silly animals not only live under the same roof, but are also rivals with dueling podcasts! With unpredictable but amusing storylines, the show features original music and some familiar voices as recurring characters, including Alec Baldwin as the goldfish Mr. Glub, and Eugene Mirman as Benny the gerbil.
This hilarious new 'pawcast' is the first installment of WNYC's new kids' programming division, and is sure to make both children and adults laugh.
