Ottawa's Norm Macdonald Learns About Ottawa's John Kricfalusi @ Nerdist Podcast (2016)

John Kricfalusi (/ˌkrɪsfəˈluːsi/; born September 9, 1955 in Chicoutimi, Quebec), better known as John K., is a Canadian animator, voice actor, producer, writer, and director best known for creating the Nickelodeon 90's cartoon series The Ren & Stimpy Show.
After a decade doing no-glam jobs like TV commercials and Internet cartoons, Kricfalusi finally moved his studio, Spümcø International, from Los Angeles to a 100-year-old Victorian farmhouse on the southern fringes of Ottawa, Canada. It was a homecoming for the flamboyant cartoonist: he lived in Ottawa from nine until he left for Toronto's Sheridan College to study animation about 10 years later. (He had quickly dropped out and headed for Los Angeles, realizing that's where he'd really get his education. Smart guy.)
