Welcome to your new favourite podcast all about online animations: Rogue Pixels! On each episode, you'll get to hear us chat to your favourite creators about some of the biggest cartoons on YouTube. This week, we're talking to Tom Jenkins and Ben Michael of Mashed about one of the internet's most-beloved Sonic the Hedgehog cartoons, Secret History of Sonic & Tails. Over the past seven years, this Sonic cartoon has taken on a life of it's own. A lot of that, of course, is down to Sonic's best friend. It's fair to say that Tails (voiced by Mick Lauer and animated by Zeurel) is one of the most recognisable characters from the Mashed archive. Fans have created art, video game mods, and more based off this version of Miles Prower. Tom and Ben break down the origins of the character on this episode, as well as how they decided to bring him back for There's Something About Amy.
