500 employee layoff at Dreamworks, The Oatmeal Kickstarter 'Exploding Kittens' raises 3mil dollars in 3 days

Layoffs, lawsuits, and cats — OH MY! Stephen and Rob talk about the tough subjects of foreign VFX subsidies and the troubles fighting them, the abrupt closing of PDI/Dreamworks Redwood City campus, and a Kickstarter campaign so ridiculously popular it brings up the topic of how democratic is the internet really. But with all the negative subjects, we also got a few questions from you listeners so we end on some positive thoughts! Oh also, it’s my (Stephen) birthday and we totally didn’t mention it once… so there’s that. Enjoy!
