In this week’s episode, Albert Tate sits down with Phil Vischer. As an author and filmmaker, Phil Vischer has had a significant impact on American culture. His groundbreaking children’s series, VeggieTales, has sold more than 65 million copies, been in major magazines and newspapers and even spoofed by Saturday Night Live and The Simpson’s.
Phil created Bob the Tomato and Larry the Cucumber as a 25 year-old Chicago based computer animator, searching for ways to integrate his faith with his filmmaking. With the help of his wife, Lisa, his college buddy, Mike Nawrocki, two art school grads and his church’s music director, Kurt Heinecke, Phil landed VeggieTales in a third of all American households with young children. Hear about how the acclaimed, “Walt Disney of the Christian world” built the concept of VeggieTales from the ground up and learned how God cares more about your relationship with Him than what you do for Him.
