Toon'd In! with Jim Cummings17 Aug 2025

Tad Stones (Darkwing Duck, Chip 'n Dale, Aladdin)

This week on Toon’d In!, Jim Cummings welcomes the legendary animator, writer, director, and Darkwing Dad himself—Tad Stones! The creative force behind Darkwing Duck, Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers, Buzz Lightyear of Star Command, and the Aladdin sequels and series sits down for a no-holds-barred chat packed with passion, nostalgia, and a few myth-busting surprises (yes, we’re talking about Darkwing and Batman... again).

From his early days at Disney during the Eisner boom to crafting some of the most beloved Saturday morning staples of all time, Tad shares what it really took to bring these shows to life—story pitches, character development, late-night rewrites, and the moments that made it all worthwhile. He and Jim reflect on their collaborations, the evolution of TV animation, and why the heart behind the art still matters most.
