As a special treat, for the next 5 days, we’ll be sharing the Encore Presentation of Beary Poppins! Yes! That’s right! EVERY DAY we’ll share 4-5 episodes of this beloved Holiday Classic starring Frank in the title role, and the pandas of the DC Panda House (Pinky: I thought I was da star!!!)
So here we go!!!
Oh boy! Oh boy! A NEW story!!!!I can hardly stand the suspense! Who will play Beary Poppins???A spoonful of frosting makes the medicine go down, the medicine go down, medicine go down!The ad is mailed, but Mittens is up to some dirty tricks….But wait! Look who found the mail box!!!Bears are VERY curious!
Oh my! What do you think is going to happen??? See you TOMORROW!
Be the Bear! Bob T is making it up as we go along! Panda
Don’t forget to check out the Panda Chronicles books and stuff on Redbubble for your holiday shopping!
The best laid plans and all that. For a change I had today’s ‘toon done in plenty of time, but we had a surprise power outage. (a likely story!) At first they estimated it would be back on by 4 PM, which turned to 8PM which turned to 10PM, which ultimately came on at 9:33PM.
Whew!
There was not heavy wind, but something fell somewhere on the lines which took out about 400+ houses in my area.
Well, as Pinky would say, “enough about YOU! Let’s get these pandas rolling!“
I’m sure there will be no trouble in Trenton! Frank, Mikey, and Ping need to get home in time for dinner on Thursday!
The bears return to the Panda House, I have returned to my cottage in the 100 acre wood, and returned to the drawing table with a new ‘toon for your enjoyment and a little escapism from reality, which really, really stinks right now.
Yes, Mittens has decided making millions of people suffer and starve is a worthwhile trade off for …what? not having the Epstein files released? Not getting his own way in Congress? Being shown to be a big whiney law breaking baby?
But we are here to bring you all the bears you need to get through the day. By the way, Frank and Mikey are pretty sure that this video is AI and it totally was not one of them.
An interesting thing happened while I was gone (okay, you might not think it was interesting, but I do). Readership appeared to be up while I was gone and not reposting ‘toons, since I always take something of a social media break when I go on the road. A fluke, perhaps? A bunch of Russian bots trying to take over panda satire? Some influential social media personage boosting this website? A couple of bears who think Frank and Mikey are hilarious? Who knows! If you are one of the above and are new to The Panda Chronicles, hop on into the comments and introduce yourself.
And if you haven’t already voted, GET OUT THERE AND VOTE BEFORE YOUR POLLS CLOSE!
So, obviously I am “with” the bears” in the best sense of the words, that is, watching them chow down on donuts, ice cream and wedding cake, and looking through the archives to find some suitable Encore presentations for you while I finish today’s the next ‘toon.
I hope you enjoyed this encore presentation of ‘toons celebrating Fat Bear week!
Be the Bear! Bob T we prefer to call it well insulated Panda
Frank and Mikey are having their moment in the spotlight…okay, well, actually, they are lost in the dark forest as they try to find their way to Fat Bear Fest, but to encourage them to finally find their way to the falls, I thought they might need some new Frank and Mikey merch!
Inspired by that “Winter is Coming” graphic from Game of Bears, I think this would add a little zing to your coffee cup, a tee shirt, or a tote bag! Stickers! Who doesn’t need stuff with bears on it? It’s on other stuff too!
Fat Bear Season is upon us, as the Katmai bears scoop up salmon to get ready for another wild Russian Alaskan winter, and more importantly, compete in the annual Fat Bear Contest! Will this be the year Frank or Mikey takes the prize? Is there a residency requirement or can any bear just barge in? I guess we’ll find out!
In the meantime, Frank and Mikey are almost ready to hit the road!
When at least a dozen people alert me to a NooZ story about bears AND all the major networks, major noozpapers and Youtube cover the story, you know that either the bears have eaten someone important (don’t get your hopes up), or some bears have done something adorable but naughty!
Young Pookies Mish and Lucy, a brother and sister pair rescued in Albania in 2021, had gone to live at an animal sanctuary in Devon, in the UK. A wild release had been attempted when they were a couple years old, but, ever the smartie bears, Mish and Lucy knew a good thing when they saw it, and refused the offer to “be free bears!”
While all the major NooZ outlets had the story, ONLY ZooNooZ got the interview!
The keepers referred to them as “naughty bears” in one story, and said if they ever see those other bears again, you know, the one with the hat and the other one with the fuzzy dice hooked over his ear, they will shoot them on sight.
“They appear to be a bad influence on our sweet, innocent bears,” said one keeper. “We can’t have them corrupting our young bears with their thieving ways.”
Frank and Mikey were unavailable for comment.
Be the Bear Bob T I thought we needed a fun story Panda
