PODCAST EPISODE 003: Jymuloxx Cortribbonz (Director-Producer For Nickelodeon)

For those who noticed, yes, Jymuloxx Cortribbonz is a character invented by Jon Schnepp. He was most known as a director and original character designer for Metalocalypse, and for his own documentary film The Death of Superman Lives… What Happened?

This is the first creative thing I ever did with Jon. I picked him up at his place, we went to a coffee shop, he ate a muffin while jotting down ideas, then I drove him to my studio where we recorded his fake character. I had a great time playing the straight-man and asking sincere questions.

Jon Schnepp was an unstoppable creative force, until he was finally stopped by a sudden illness in 2018. I hope someday there is a documentary or museum dedicated to his creativity. And here is just one small piece of it…


Who here doesn’t remember the 1980s show Real Gibbons on Nickelodeon? I’m not afraid to admit I still have a worn-out (and now autographed) VHS tape with the first 3 episodes, but still haven’t been able to find any clips on YouTube. Well, here’s the man who started it all. After 12 years of being inspired by his shows, I’m honored to present this candid interview with the temperamental director-producer, Jymuloxx Cortribbonz. Guess where Adult Swim got all their animation techniques? You guessed it.

  1. I’m not sure how I feel about Jymuloxx Cortribbonz. I’ve heard he takes a weird pride in strange acts, like putting glue all over his windows so that when it dries clear, it just looks nasty.

    And something about how he can’t understand Australian accents for anything. He literally thinks its a non-English language and he sues Australian interviewers if they don’t provide a translator.
