 Saturday Morning Cereal is a weekend talk podcast that celebrates the stories, characters, and themes that shaped us—from Saturday morning cartoons to the pop culture that’s grown up right alongside us.

With exclusive interviews featuring pop culture icons and the creative minds behind the moments that defined generations, we dig deep into the bowl of nostalgia (no toy surprise needed) to explore the past, present, and future of fandom.

Now in our 12th season and counting, our archive is a time capsule of pop culture’s biggest moments, people, and events—hosted by Grim Shea, Marke, and contributors Retro Cool Nerd’s Jimmy “The Gent” and Johnny Heck.

The cereal might be different, but the magic is still the same. Long before streaming queues and prestige TV, there was Saturday morning—cartoons, cereal, commercials, and that unfiltered childhood joy. We’re not just remembering it—we’re reimagining it, one crunchy, sugar-coated memory at a time.Copyright Saturday Morning Cereal

    The Gene Hackman Draft – A Tribute to the Legend Who Raised Us
    May 24 2025
    🎧 Show Description:
    Remember your first happy hour? Saturday mornings—when you’d wake up with the sun, grab a bowl of chocolatey cereal, and lose yourself in a world of cartoons, commercials, and pure, unfiltered joy. We’re still chasing that feeling, one episode at a time.

    Join hosts Grim Shea, Marke, Jimmy “The Gent,” and Johnny Heck as they launch a brand-new chapter of Saturday Morning Cereal—now on Spreaker and wherever you get your pods.

    In this hostfull episode (no guests, just your Saturday Morning squad), we pay tribute to the cinematic legend, Gene Hackman. From Superman to Hoosiers, from The French Connection to The Royal Tenenbaums, Gene helped shape the movies that raised us. To honor the man, we roll up our sleeves and draft The Gene Hackman Movies We Grew Up With—one pick at a time.

    It’s a nostalgic, heartfelt, and slightly competitive look at the films that made Hackman a household name and a generational icon. So pour a bowl, press play, and let’s Hackman it up.

    Boba Fett, Beetlejuice & Babar: A Saturday Morning with Michael Hirsh
    Apr 12 2025
    Remember your first happy hour? Saturday mornings—when you’d wake up with the sun, grab a bowl of chocolatey cereal, and lose yourself in a world of cartoons, commercials, and pure, unfiltered joy. We’re still chasing that feeling, one episode at a time.

    This week, we’re kicking off our Spreaker premiere with a true legend of Saturday morning animation: Michael Hirsh—the creative force behind Ewoks, Droids, Babar, Beetlejuice, Franklin, Little Bear, and many more. He also introduced American audiences to The Story of the Faithful Wookie, the animated short that debuted Boba Fett in the now-iconic Star Wars Holiday Special.

    What’s it like to help shape a generation’s imagination? We ask him—and he tells us.

    Join hosts Grim Shea, Marke, Jimmy “The Gent,” and Johnny Heck as they launch a brand-new chapter of Saturday Morning Cereal—now on Spreaker and wherever you get your pods.

    Plus, check out Michael Hirsh’s new memoir, Animation Nation: How We Built a Cartoon Empire—a fun, insightful look at how passion, creativity, and a little cereal-fueled magic can build something unforgettable.

  • 1984! Our Best, Year of Movies Draft!

    1984! Our Best, Year of Movies Draft!
    Dec 16 2024
    Take some time this week to remember your original happy hour: Saturday mornings as a kid, waking up at dawn, jumping on the couch with a bowl of chocolate cereal, turning on the ‘toons, tuning out the outside world, and working your way into a sugar hangover before noon. This week we start a new end of year tradition as we celebrate 40 years of 1984 movies with “Our Best, Year of Movies Draft”. That’s right. 1984 is maybe the most consequential year in movie mania history as it's the beginning of the GenX blockbuster era . The Terminator, The Karate Kid, SixteenCandles, Ghostbusters (heck, even Indiana Jones makes an appearance), are but a few of the 1984 monster hits that informed what Hollywood would become for 40 years! But because we couldn’t possibly talk about all them, we decided on an fantasy league style draft where our hostfull panel will draft their “Starting Five” best movies of 1984. Hard choices will have to be made but there are no winners or losers, just lively conversation and good cheer! Join Grim Shea, Marke., Johnny Heck and Retro Cool Nerd’s Jimmy “The Gent” Leszcynski as they dig deep into the nostalgia well to draft their best 1984 movies.
