  • 19 - Seize the Pape [a.k.a. Newsies]
    2024/11/21

    Extra, Extra! We hope you were able to finish that giant turkey leg from last week, because today’s headline says that it’s time to take on our first nostalgic musical — Newsies! While Jeff feels pretty familiar with the musical genre, this one actually came from Josue’s past. And he is pretty sure we will all love it. There’s only one way to find out. But before we do, Jeff guides all of us through our first No-Look Art Studio. So grab a paper and pencil and play along. Chances are you’ll do better than Josue.


    Scroll down and vote on the Spotify poll to let us know what you think of Newsies. Do you have a suggestion of a future musical we can revisit? Let us know in the comments or email them to ideas@WDYT.show⁠.

  • 18 - A Boy, an Alien…and Also a Cat
    2024/11/07

    Today we look to the stars, but not before we clean the lasagna out of the litter box. That’s right, we are covering two nostalgic throwbacks! One is widely considered a classic, and the other flies a little below the radar. See if you can guess which is which. But lucky for us, both feature some candy, candy, candy, candy.

    We’ll begin with a short, animated special that follows Garfield the cat on his very first trick-or-treating adventure. And he’s invited Odie, you and us along for the ride. After that animated appetizer, we revisit the Steven Spielberg + John Williams juggernaut, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. He may be ugly, but he’s endearing. Also kids in the 80’s were crazy. The era did bring us some iconic, cinema soundtracks, so we also have an audio quiz to get us in the mood.

    We also mentioned a few links on the episode that we’ll include below. And if you scroll down a little further you can vote on the Spotify poll to let us know what you think. Do either of these hold up?! If you have suggestions for future episodes, we’d love to hear them at ideas@WDYT.show⁠.
