Bullseye with Jesse Thorn is a production of MaximumFun.org and is distributed by NPR.

It's Bullseye, I'm Jesse Thorn.

My guest, Lisa Hannahwalt, designed the animated series Bojack Horseman.

It's a show that uses both human and animal characters, voiced by actors like Will Arnett,

Amy Sideris, and Aaron Paul.

And generally people love it.

Of course there was that one time when a viewer noticed something specific missing from

the show and decided to write a sternly worded email.

I mean, it was amusing because it was so entitled.

It was just like, no, I really do think that for the betterment of the show you should

go back into animation and add in tales and then re-release the show.

I read the email, it was amazing.

It's Bullseye.

Coming up, I'll sit down with Lisa Hannahwalt.

She and I will talk about Bojack Horseman, her new book Hot Dog Taste Test, and of course,

Martha Stewart's Horse.

The name keeps changing, the way they spell it on her blog and updates.

So it changed the band-chunch.

Sometimes it's band-chunch, one word.

And yeah, it's a real mystery.

I feel kind of like Sarah Cainer gone serial.

Like I'm just constantly trying to find out new information about this horse.
