The legendary filmmaker and satirist joins me for a fun conversation to talk about some of his recent works including a new free mockumentary posted at his website plymptoons.com "Hitler's Folly", which imagines the dictator never giving up his art and following a path of animation and amusement parks. As Plympton says he sees the similarities of conquering the world thru warfare, and Hollywood's publicity machine.  We talk about the way Bill raises money for his animation thrucrowdfunding, and collaborations with fellow animators like Jim Lujan, and talk about his many animated and live action films including his famous 25 Ways To Quit Smoking which was shown many times in the 90's on MTV.
