Presenting the first episode of a brand new season of Intimate Animation!

Join Skwigly’s Ben Mitchell and Laura-Beth Cowley as they explore, discuss and interview the talents behind animation that deals with adult themes of love, relationships and sexuality.

In this episode we meet relative newcomer Caitlin McCarthy whose recent work as part of London’s Strange Beast – including animation for Vox/Netflix and the independent short films Paraphilia and Coldsore (screening at Bristol’s Encounters Festival next month) – has been making a splash.

Also discussed in this episode: The curiously short lifespan of Lisa Hanawalt‘s promising new adult sitcom Tuca & Bertie as well as ongoing Netflix shows Big Mouth and Love Death + Robots. We also pay tribute to the late great animation legend Richard Williams whose body of work includes the iconic modern animation ‘bombshell’ Jessica Rabbit.
