Love this podcast! The hosts play off each other so well, and I adore the format of the episodes! It’s so cool to learn the history of these movies and how that plays into how they were made, as well as getting personal accounts of how the films affected people!
Apple Podcasts5Zanna .United States5 years ago - Great Research, Great Friends, Great Time
An exquisitely researched, critically engaging, and downright fun Disney podcast. It always makes me want to revisit these films and consider the history and people that made them possible. Also, there are good jokes and nice people talking about what they love (and don’t love)??? A five star podcast for sure!
