Chosen by premium patron ToonJay, we're covering one of the most influential toons from the start of the millennium: Invader ZIM! We go into the seemingly impossible circumstances that led a 22-year-old Jhonen Vasquez to make a Nicktoon, how 9/11 and Columbine affected it, and how it got a second life after cancelation! Then we dig into two of its best episodes, one about time-traveling pigs and the other about a giant hamster. So grab your GIR plushy and listen in!
