After we recorded that line, we both were getting that little song stuck in our head and were saying it over and over and over again. Finally, we were like, "All right, let's just go record that song." One line from a cartoon turned into the song, and then became its own other cartoon.

-	'''MATT CHAPMAN''': You can tell much bigger stories. I went to film school and tried to write features here and there. There's a part of me that wants to tell bigger, grander stories, whereas these are tiny little nuggets of humor, of emotion or whatever. And we can make them go from our brains to them existing in a week. I wrote on that show Gravity Falls, and there are episodes that I wrote on that won't air for months, and I worked on them two years ago. Animation's done overseas, and there's editing and revisions and all that stuff. It takes so long, but it is satisfying when I get to see those finally. It's like, "Oh wow, look, that thing finally came to life." We'd like to tell bigger stories with grander animation someday, but this seems to be what we're good at.
