This is where me and my new co-host Madzy Williams will be talking about the adult-only, French-language anthropomorphic animal puppet movie about the notorious Marquis during the French revolution and it has a talking peepee. And we discuss how I could turn that into a cut-out animated show made for late-night television audiences.
But here are a few things I would like to share.
One,...
