Silvio E. Dolphin Is Going to Singlehandedly Stop the Russian Invasion of Ukraine

You're familiar with the likes of Smokey the Bear and McGruff the Crime Dog. When we need a problem addressed in this country, we turn to cartoon mascots. Now we're going global.

Enter Silvio E. Dolphin: the fun-loving, Italian-American dolphin here to tell you that it's not ok to invade Ukraine.

Vladimir Putin has not listened to anyone else. Nothing seems to stop him. If he won't listen to literally the rest of the world, maybe Sil E. Dolphin will change something within his heart. This dolphin is cool as hell and doesn't put up with any geopolitical nonsense.

I'm not sure if we have any statistics on the efficacy of Smokey and McGruff producing their desired results, but Silvio only needs to convince one man. We've already tried vinegar with Putin, now we're going to try honey.

And as far as public service cartoons go, we crowdsourced a pretty elite one in about five minutes. Just look at this dude. That's a dolphin you're hanging out with 11 times out of 10.

The rest of this week's episode on the secrets of Disney — as well as four hours of other topics — is the best we've recorded in a while, so check it out on YouTube as well as wherever you listen to podcasts.
