1990

Welcome to episode 21 of "Cowabunga Corner" Season 3. In this episode I sit down with Renae Jacobs, who voiced April O'Neil for the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series. She shares her stories from when she worked on Ninja Turtles as well as other parts of her history as a voice actress.

Welcome to episode 20 of Cowabunga Corner Season 3. In this episode I review the second TMNT Magazine. This is my third review of the Magazine as I've touched it at least once per a season. These Magazines came out in the early 1990's, with great art and fun stories.

Welcome to episode 6 of Cowabunga Corner Season 3. In this episode I get to sit down and interview Michelan Sisti who is best known as Michaelangelo from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1 & Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2 : The Secret of the Ooze.

He also played the pizza delievery guy in the first movie and April’s neighbor in the second movie. So both movies we know him in and out of costume.

Welcome to episode 2 of Cowabunga Corner Season 3. In this episode I get to interview Pat Fraley, the voice of Krang, Baxter Stockman, and many many more characters. A very talented actor who helped make the original cartoon series as great as it is!

Earlier this year Cowabunga Corner was able to get in touch with Sara Seidman Vance, a crew member from two of the live action Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles films. Sara worked on TMNT 1 as the costume dresser for Donatello and did make up and stand in work for TMNT 2.

Sara was nice enough to agree to an interview about her time working on the Ninja Turtle movies and giving us a little update on what she's doing now. 

In this episode I talk about the first issue of the TMNT Magazine. Going over the stories in the magazines. I've always liked the Magazines, so through Cowabunga Corner I hope to be able to go over each issues to share with everyone.

In 2005, Eric Anzalone from the Village People took time to be interviewed for his work he did with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Here on Cowabunga Corner we’d like to share this interview for the first time, as a lead in to our 12th episode for season two, a video interview with Eric.

Cowabunga Corner:
How did you first hear of the Ninja Turtles?

Eric:
That would have to be the 1st Movie?

CC:
Did you watch the cartoons or movies?

Eric:
I watched the movies. By the time the second film came out, I was already involved with the TMNT, so I would try to catch the cartoons as well- you know character work; trying to make everything consistent.

CC:
Before being a Turtle did you have a favorite Turtle, if so did it change after being in the Tour?

This episode the video was recorded in November 1990 as my dad made a Krang puppet, we called a hall costume. It’ll sit on our shoulders as we walk around and the mouth moves.

In this episode I talk about the Coming Out of Their Shells Tour, that went around in 1990 through 1991. A fun show, made for children. Picked on by many fans, though it was never intended for the older fans. Seeing it live is far better than watching it on TV.

If you have stories to share about the Coming Out of Their Shells Tour, please do share!
