Trust Fund Challenge #6: Clutch Cargo (1959) "Operation Moonbeam"

The latest installment of Trust Fund Challenge features a series of Clutch Cargo shorts from the late '50s. The show featured the creepy "Syncro Vox" technique of superimposing live action human lips over the mouths of animated characters' faces. It was basically done to save money but man, is it disconcerting. Years later, Robert Smigel revived it to hilarious effect on Late Night With Conan O'Brien, but Ric and I have some fun with it in this episode.
