Episode 25 - Beauty and the Beast or… The Merciful End to Gaston’s Heart Disease

This is the tale of a very special individual, someone from a small provincial town of simpletons who stands out for their incredible drive, ambition, and literacy. Someone who finds love in the most unexpected of outcasts and will brave any obstacle to secure their love. We’re talking, of course… about Gaston. Be our guest as we proudly present Beauty and the Beast (1991). Try all the gray stuff such as:- A Boomspoon. Spoom.- Seriously, read between the lines, Gaston is a secret nerd and genius.- He’s also at extreme risk of heart disease due to his preposterous egg diet. - If your dishware gives you tasting recommendations, don’t eat that. Gross. - THE CHILD THAT DOOMED HIS STAFF TO ETERNAL TORMENT.- Belle’s uncharacteristic shows of massive upper arm strength.- Go watch Disney Movies and shows in other language tracks.

Episode 24 - The Rescuers Down Under or… A Turdy Followup to a Plop of a First One

I’m gonna level with you on this one…For the first time we attempted to record back-to-back episodes and with the combination of staying up way too late and imbibing two movies’ worth of spirits, this one got a little goofy. Honestly, it’s going to sound super edited because, well, half of it was unusable. But through the magic of post production, we are now presenting an undeservingly scathing review of a mostly forgettable movie. Think of it as free association podcast jazz, I guess. Anyway, here’s The Rescuers Down Under (1990).- Bernard and Bianca (not Rachel, not Bernice, not Valerie) are back at it again, supervising children as they rescue themselves.- Crime MacGruff the Poacher steals the boy.- Cody! No more adventures until you call your mom!- Joanna eats up movie time by eating eggs.- Nun mice have strapped down Wilbur for some very plot-heavy butt jokes.- Something something multiplane something something.- Yes, we can’t wait for Beauty and the Beast either.Featured Wine: Adelaida Pinot Noir

Episode 23 - Duck Tales the Movie or… The Aladdin Ripoff BEFORE Aladdin

You know, life can sometimes resemble a torrential waterspout. And with fast automobiles, single file photons, and aviation machines, it can create an effect known colloquially as “Duck-blur”. Solve a mystery (or rewrite history) with us as we endure Duck Tales the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp (1990). Let’s unearth Collie Baba’s tomb to find:- Our favorite outdoor recreation - tracking and hunting railroad trains.- The epic family tree of Disney Ducks.- Holy moley, this movie moves along fast.- Oh Dijon… more treasures in your baggy parachute pants? - Don’t worry, marbles and scout handbooks solve everything. - A family friendly story featuring a villain responsible for obliterating entire civilizations. - And we have discovered the absolute strongest character in the entire pantheon of Disney heroes...
