Just wanted to send out a huge thanks to you guys (and all your guests) for crafting this huge archive of entertainment, knowledge, and inspiration. Listening to this podcast really helped me focus on my portfolios this year and I just learned I've been accepted into Sheridan's Animation degree! Thank you guys so much, I've been rejected from various schools over the past few years and was super beat down, but you charged my batteries! Keep being amazing!

OH MAN, CONGRATS! That’s super awesome to hear, and I’m so flattered and honored that the podcast helped you focus and stay inspired. I know the feeling of being rejected from schools a bunch and its tough, glad you stuck with it. NOW GO KICK SOME ASS AT SHERIDAN!

Hi there! I started listening to your podcast recently and I have to say it has been a really great inspiration, so thank you guys for that. I was wondering, though, if there was anyway to get the first 51 episodes, as I can't find them in iTunes. Cheers and keep up the good work! I'll be listening.

Hey!

Thanks for the kind words, we really appreciate it. As far as the podcast eps go, I have no idea why some episodes are missing on Itunes, I think its an RSS feed thing but I haven’t been able to fix it yet. Maybe Itunes only lets you have a certain amount of eps on it, I’m not sure.

If you want to listen to the whole library you can get them on our site here, http://guyswithpencils.com/ or at out libsyn site (which is our host) here, http://gwp.libsyn.com/.

Cheers!
