Recurring shorts
The program includes several recurring short series. ADHD U, short for ADHD University, serves as a parody of Schoolhouse Rock! with songs about different organizations and topics not often discussed in Schoolhouse Rock!, sung by Nate Clark, Matthew Davis, and Katie Molinaro. Desert Folk follows the Desert Folk boys: an anthropomorphic lizard named Lizard (voiced by Trevor Moore), a rattlesnake named Snake (voiced by Sam Brown), and an anthropomorphic scorpion named Scorpion (voiced by James Pumphrey) as they live in the desert and have various misadventures. Gothball, a spin-off of Stone Quackers, features a bicolor cat named Gothball (voiced by John O'Hurley) interacting with his owner Dottie (voiced by Heather Lawless), Whit (voiced by Whitmer Thomas), Clay (voiced by Clay Tatum), and Barf (voiced by Ben Jones); the cat was originally named Gothfield in Stone Quackers, and Ben Jones created both series and provided the opening narration. Hamsters on Rollerskates involves hamsters who wear rollerskates and have non sequitur conversations about just about anything, created by Matty Smith and voiced by Matty Smith and Jack Allison. Hulk, a parody of Hulk from Marvel Comics, depicts Bruce Banner (voiced by Stephen Hale) going through mundane activities upon turning into Hulk (also voiced by Stephen Hale) like running errands and joining a gym, which always results in Hulk causing damages; when ADHD stopped production, the shorts were continued on AOK.
