The Ninth Annual Cartony Awards

Welcome back to the Cartony Awards! This year featured some heavy hitters and surprising dark horses (but not a real dark horse that’s cruel). And as we round the corner toward our final year, we’re left to ponder the big questions. When are they going to fire Great Teacher Onizuka for sexual harassment? How many Sheldons are there? And just what is it about Flo from Progressive? It’s a jam-packed year of equally stupid conversations from the Cartoncast, and we humbly invite you to listen in.

Our categories this year:

  • Best Intro

  • Show That we Like the Best Despite Hating a Good Half of it

  • Best Callback

  • Best Example of Random Humor

  • Worst Teen

  • Best Conspiracy Theory

  • Best Voice Actor Spotlight

  • Character Most Immune from Consequences

  • '“We’ve Been Meaning to Get to That” Award

  • Best Hot Take

  • Best Show

Well, it’s that time again to celebrate the holiest of holidays - Cartony season. Sure, this past year was a bit of a struggle at times, with many contenders for the spot of New Ben before the original came back to claim his title. But amongst the strife came clarity on the true nature of Santa Claus (the answer may surprise you!) as well as a higher than recommended dose of dithering about with various guests. Join us as we debate whether or not most of the things this year happened.

Our categories this year:

  • Most Interesting Nonhuman

  • Best Musical Number to Worst Episode Ratio

  • Best Santa

  • Best Boy

  • Best Intro

  • Best Adoption of an Earlier Art Style

The Sixth Annual Cartony Awards

Ahh, the exalted Cartony awards. The envy of every cartoon-related self-aggrandizing navel-gazing podcaster for miles around. An opportunity to purge the bitter bile from our minds, to start another year with a clean slate by acknowledging the worst, best, and hairy chest of the past year. So take a load off, reminisce about why these cartoons am so horny, and try not to fall prey to the wandering kunai with chain.

The highly coveted Cartony Cup (a large glass that you crack eggs into before whisking) is up for grabs again this year, with hosts Ben and Zane presiding. It's a real menagerie of animated contenders this year, and we intend not to stop until everyone, including the ourselves, the cartoons, and even the audience, is disoriented and ashamed. It takes about five minutes this year.

Welcome to the Second Annual Cartony Awards! We might not have shown up to the right place for the second year in a row, but no one's pulling our strings when we talk about our favorite cartoons of the past year! We might not have as robust a roster as last year, but the contestants this time around are some serious contenders. And just so no-one confuses us with a puppetry-themed show, we have a new slogan: "The Cartoncast - Better than a Hand up your Ass."
