It was a nice little bonus at the end of each episode. Khalyla would do an MMA minute. I wish they would bring that back.
This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 76%. (I'm a bot)
> The imprisoned British-Australian academic Kylie Moore-Gilbert has begged the Australian prime minister to secure her release from an Iranian jail, as human rights groups urge foreign governments to take a stronger line with Tehran.
> A Cambridge-educated academic specialising in Middle East politics, Moore-Gilbert has been imprisoned in Tehran's notorious Evin prison since September 2018, after she was arrested at Tehran airport while trying to leave the country after attending an academic conference.
> Moore-Gilbert, who holds both British and Australian citizenship but was travelling on her Australian passport, was arrested by the intelligence arm of Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps, having been flagged as "Suspicious" by a fellow academic.
> Last June, Moore-Gilbert wrote to the prime minister: "I beg you to act faster to bring this terrible trauma that myself and my family must live through day after day." In the letter, smuggled out of prison, and published by the Centre for Human Rights in Iran, she said she had travelled to Iran on a university program for foreign academics, "As well as naively to conduct some research interviews".
> The Australian foreign affairs minister, Marise Payne, said the Australian government was working "Every day with our agencies here and with counterparts in Iran to secure Dr Moore-Gilbert's release".
> Ramsey said if Australia's strategy was to pursue negotiations quietly, "There needs to be a united front: with the Australian government, alongside allies that have leverage on Iran like the EU countries and Japan, telling the [Iranian] government, 'you can't take foreign nationals to use as hostages'."

I remember that a few years ago, someone on here discovered that Scott once animated films for a company called Rock 'N Learn. Geared directly towards young children, the company's films are made to educate kids on science, writing, math, or more juvenile things like Nursery Rhymes.
Back then, the only thing we got from these are the short samples that the company posted on their Youtube channel. A few years have passed and I found out today that Rock 'N Learn posted the full versions of most of their films. That's when I jumped in.
Though I will let you know of three things. One is that not all of the films are up for viewing. Second is that some of Scott's films were replaced by another animator and aren't available for sale anymore. I'm not sure why that is, but I posted the samples of those below.
The third is that Scott strictly animated them, he wasn't involved in the writing or voice acting, so the films won't have that Cawthon charm. Maybe you'll get a kick out of them regardless and have a few laughs. Besides, it's good to archive the things that creators has done for history's sake. Everyone has their start somewhere!
Science & Social Studies:
This contains that infamous digestive system song. I remember when we streamed this during movie night, the chat freaked out. Good times.
Education Related Films:
Math:
Apparently Scott worked with another person on this, and it contains a rapping hamster.
Preschool & Kindergarten:
I think this is the most interesting one because there is a fox character who is named... Freddy Fox. The replaced films seen below suggests that Scott did not create the characters, making this a really freaky coincidence. That walking animation though.

Everyone forgets that Icarus also flew.
It's the same when love comes to an end,
or the marriage fails and people say
they knew it was a mistake, that everybody
said it would never work. That she was
old enough to know better. But anything
worth doing is worth doing badly.
Like being there by that summer ocean
on the other side of the island while
love was fading out of her, the stars
burning so extravagantly those nights that
anyone could tell you they would never last.
Every morning she was asleep in my bed
like a visitation, the gentleness in her
like antelope standing in the dawn mist.
Each afternoon I watched her coming back
through the hot stony field after swimming,
the sea light behind her and the huge sky
on the other side of that. Listened to her
while we ate lunch. How can they say
the marriage failed? Like the people who
came back from Provence (when it was Provence)
and said it was pretty but the food was greasy.
I believe Icarus was not failing as he fell,
but just coming to the end of his triumph.
Had hard luck trying to find it after looking all over the web despite being an oft-cited text. Hopefully this one hits.
