  • Episode 77 -- Olaf's Frozen Adventure
    2021/12/21

    A lot about snowmen and traditions--surprisingly little about the Mediterranean Monk Seal! Bill and Kristine talk the not terrible, but disastrously marketed and placed, "Olaf's Frozen Adventure."

  • Episode 76 -- A Muppets Christmas: Letters to Santa
    2021/12/13

    It's a bite-sized episode for a bite-sized movie, as we watch a Christmas special from the Muppets dark ages, just three years before Jason Siegel came riding in to save the brand. Celebrity cameos, utterly forgettable songs, and all the Muppets things you're used to except for the heart! Come be kind of vaguely sad with us.

    2021/12/06

    What. A. Week! We're back right on schedule with a new episode, on the 1961 film Babes in Toyland. Also, we're learning a new space, so we're sorry for the not-great audio quality! But please join us as we discuss a truly weird, why-does-this-exist sort-of-holiday classic.

  • Episode 74 -- Heavyweights
    2021/05/17

    Fat kids at fat camp, but their fatness isn't the joke, and that's so great! Also Stiller and Meara, and Paul Feig! Kristine and Bill visit the weird Judd Apatow Disney comedy they missed in 1995, "Heavyweights," and reminisce about a summer camp life they themselves only sort of ever had.

  • Episode 73 -- The Swiss Family Robinson
    2021/05/10

    Kristine and Bill talk about The Swiss Family Robinson (1960), based, as so many adventure films are, on a book written in German a century and a half earlier by a father who really liked Robinson Crusoe and had wanted to teach his four sons about ethics and nature and stuff.

  • Episode 72 -- D3: The Mighty Ducks
    2021/04/26

    With the Ducks back in the zeitgeist thanks to "Mighty Ducks: Game Changers," Kristine and Bill watch the last, most forgettable and very definitely the worst of the Mighty Ducks trilogy, the one they couldn't just call "Mighty Ducks 3" because this was the nineties and that's not extreme enough. Joshua "Pacey" Jackson! Kenan "what up with that" Thompson! We rip off Ask Me Another with some parody songs and just canNOT believe how bad this movie's sound effects are. Come on, it'll be fun!

  • Episode 71 -- The Fox and the Hound
    2021/04/20

    Kristine and Bill watch and discuss another pre-Renaissance animated classic, and one that neither of them had seen before. We talk about the book upon which it's kind of sort of arguably based (basically, they borrowed some names and the title), Pearl Bailey and Sandy Duncan, foreign variations on what seems like a pretty simple movie title, and a proto-"OK Boomer!" or four.
