Cartoon Island - A Surreal Comedy of Survival

Cartoon Island
15 episodes   Last Updated: May 13, 25

Lost on a tiny, two-tree island, hapless castaways, Jason and Bradney, struggle to make it through each strange day in this immersive improvised comedy of errors. 

Every morning, boxes mysteriously wash up on shore. The items inside are pretty useless. The island is a bit weird. 

They have absolutely no idea where they are and very little idea of what to do. 

With only the junk they unbox and a few coconuts each, simply surviving is a real surreal challenge. 

Welcome to Cartoon Island.

New episodes transmitted every other Tuesday.

Hi, Barbara here! In this first edition of my new podcast recommendation show, I present to you the first episode of the fantastic, sci-fi dark comedy, inc: The Podcast, from Wolf Mountain Workshop.In the creator's own words: Bethany and Jonas are two pencil-pushing aliens living and working on a company ship that incorporates whole planets by the dozen, tasked with organizing all of the data that is recovered from said planets. They get through the endless days by occasionally adding meaningful stories that they discover to the Extraneous But Interesting folder, all the while navigating the complex web that is friendship and life in this corpo-futuristic nightmare. A science fiction podcast where Douglas Adams meets The Office. Where Severance and Mad Men meet Robert Heinlein. After listening to this episode, follow the show wherever you listen, keep on listening to new episodes released every other Monday, and check out more about the show and the great people behind it over at https://incthepodcast.buzzsprout.com/2067661 and wolfmountainworkshop.orgUntil next time!Follow the show and reach out here: Website - cartoonislandpod.com Email- acartoonisland@gmail.comInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/cartoonislandpod/

Day 11
Freebie Willy & Freebie Willy 2.  Jason has some ideas about the nature of the island. Maybe he's onto someting. But sometimes it's hard to differentiate a good idea from a coping mechanism. Potato potato, perhaps? And Bradney's just over it. Follow the show and reach out here: Website - cartoonislandpod.com Email- acartoonisland@gmail.comInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/cartoonislandpod/

Day 10
It's just like that one Nietzsche quote.    Following the trauma of encountering the indescribable, incomprehensible horrors of his underwater outing, Bradney seems a little different today. Maybe he's finally warming up to this place. Maybe he's just completely disassociating.It's hard to say. Jason isn't a qualified...well, anything really.Perhaps Bradney can talk to his catch o' the day...  Oh and there's a pretty shattering discovery at the end too.This place just doesn't let up, does it?  Follow the show and reach out here: Website - cartoonislandpod.com Email- acartoonisland@gmail.comInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/cartoonislandpod/

Day 9
Gettin' Loopy or Felt Cute, Might Attack Later        A funny little hand puppet arrives in one of the boxes. And it doesn't exactly go well. In fact, it goes very, very badly.Also, the two castaways take turns taking a dip with their new snorkel. Their experiences couldn't be more different.Seems like Bradney's mind is really starting to break. Or maybe this is is all really happening. It's all just sort of a mess.Again.        Follow the show and reach out here: Website - cartoonislandpod.com Email- acartoonisland@gmail.comInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/cartoonislandpod/

Day 8
Bet on the dragon - it always wins.      The two castaways take a cruise down memory lane, contemplate some construction, and end their day with a bang. Well, with two bangs, actually.Follow the show and reach out here: Website - cartoonislandpod.com Email- acartoonisland@gmail.comInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/cartoonislandpod/

Day 7
Wigging Out.    On this first anniversary, Jason and Bradney have a surprise 'visitor.' They fall under her spell, become nervous, suspicious, jealous, and finally, grief stricken - all within the span of minutes. Then they have a drink.  Too much sun can really do a number on you.         Follow the show and reach out here: Website - cartoonislandpod.com Email- acartoonisland@gmail.comInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/cartoonislandpod/

Day 6
Row, row, row...  The best laid (escape) plans of mice and men often go awry. Or turn out to be cake. This cruel joke seems a bit behind trend. But time is also weird on the island. So who knows? Either way, it all goes about as well as your might have guessed it would. Maybe worse.         Follow the show and reach out here: Website - cartoonislandpod.com Email- acartoonisland@gmail.comInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/cartoonislandpod/

But in the end, Jason and Bradney patch it all up during 'un-happy hour.'          Follow the show and reach out here: Website - cartoonislandpod.com Email- acartoonisland@gmail.comInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/cartoonislandpod/
