I kept thinking that they’re going to replace it. I just didn’t believe it. I thought, not until I’m watching it on TV am I going to believe it.
Rich Dickerson
As mentioned in the episode, Rich was so kind as to send me a few really cool behind the scenes photos! I’ve watermarked them with both his name and the podcast, as he certainly didn’t have to share them and I don’t want them circling around the internet with no credit! Take a look below.

Welcome to the Unmasked History of Scooby Doo podcast. There’s a lot of work going on behind the scenes to get the first episode out, which should be coming soon! Make sure to stay tuned for more information.
But in the meantime, I’d like to introduce myself! I’m Alexa Lawlor, and I’ll be the host for Unmasked History. I’ve been a huge Scooby Doo fan for as long as I can remember, and I’m also a bit of a Scooby collector. I have a degree in journalism, and am very passionate about interviewing people. So I’m super excited to be able to put those two things together to create this podcast!
The goal of Unmasked History is to delve into the mystery of Scooby Doo media, getting clues from people who helped bring our favourite canine sleuth to life on various platforms. I’ll be interviewing people from all corners of the Scooby Doo franchise, and posting as much behind the scenes bonus content as I can.
I can’t wait to get the first episode out, and I hope you’ll take a listen!
But in the meantime, make sure to follow the Unmasked History of Scooby Doo on Twitter, @UnmaskedSD, or on Instagram, @unmaskedsdpodcast.
