The witches are back, because we're talking about 1993's (now) Halloween classic, Hocus Pocus! Amber Morey returns to talk to us all about the Disney Halloween movie that released in the middle of summer...for some reason. We also talk about how Hocus Pocus rose from the ashes of box office failure to become a Halloween staple widely seen today, despite it not aging the most gracefully.

What's this? Our OCTOBER HALLOWEEN SPOOKTACULAR officially kicks off with Disney's 1993 Halloween/Christmas mashup, The Nightmare Before Christmas! John Hansen (Gamepur, Pixel Street) joins us to talk about the Disney film that wasn't even marketed as a Disney film! We go into the film's famous soundtrack, the way it so effortlessly combines two polar opposite holidays, and if we'll ever see the long-rumored sequel.

Time to talk about feelings! Artist Aliana Manteria (alianamantertia.com) joins us to talk about the acclaimed 2015 Pixar film, Inside Out. We talk about how it makes a complicated topic plateable for children, how it cleverly makes us understand the purposes of each emotion, and how Aidan almost thought Bing Bong was a villain! Get your tissues ready, because we're about to unpack a lot of emotions.

It's getting chilly out there, because we're talking about Disney's 2013 smash hit, Frozen. Katie Hébert joins us to talk about the film that flipped Disney tropes on their head, created a soundtrack we're still trying to get out of our heads, and defined a generation! We try to answer the question: why was Frozen the one to break out? Through a lot of rambling, we try to get to the bottom of it all.

Happy Día de los Muertos! Armida Flores (queenlatina_ on TikTok) joins us to talk about Coco, Pixar's love letter to the Mexican holiday. We talk about how it almost portrayed the holiday from an Americanized perspective, the numerous controversies the film faced, and, despite being an authentic and respectful portrayal, how representation shouldn't end here.

We're not talking about a movie this week—instead we're talking about a short, one Disney apparently wants to keep hidden. Lucas White (Prima Games) joins us to talk about the infamous 1995 Mickey Mouse short, Runaway Brain. We talk about its radical departure from the Mickey Mouse we all are familiar with, how it's only one instance of Disney continually trying to refresh its mascot, and the surprising ways its influence is still felt today.

It's time to set sail on the high seas to talk about the first movie in Disney's massively successful Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, The Curse of the Black Pearl. Wesley LeBlanc (IGN) joins us to talk about this film's theme park roots, its rocky road to the screen, and how it holds up today—especially compared to its sequels. With the future of the franchise seemingly in limbo, it's time to look back at this franchise's relatively humble beginnings.

It's time to let our hair down to talk about the revolutionary 2010 film Tangled. Tangled superfan Tara Muldoon (The Punderful World of Disney) joins us to talk about Disney's first computer-animated fairytale. We go into its troubled history, how the film transformed numerous times, and Kristin Chenowith was almost a Disney Princess. A film that's both traditional and modern at the same time, Tangled set the stage for a new, incredibly lucrative era for Walt Disney Animation Studios.

We're going digital to talk about the 1982 film Tron, one of Disney's most unique productions. A film that has been hugely influential to the film industry yet still struggles to break through to the mainstream, it is perhaps the perfect example of how much of a riskier company Disney was in the 80s. Writer Peter Glagowski (TheGamer, Flixist) joins us to discuss whether the film holds up today, its surprisingly restrained use of CGI imagery, and why Disney keeps trying to make this franchise happen.

Our first episode is here! And we're kicking off this show with one of Disney's (and the animation genre's) most important films. Created during a time when the Disney company was in disarray, The Little Mermaid defied odds to kickstart what is now known as the Disney Renaissance. The Little Mermaid superfan (and Aidan's longtime friend) Amber Morey joins the show to discuss how a Tom Hanks film almost killed The Little Mermaid before it even got started, how this film almost starred Roseanne Barr, and its lackluster theme park representation!
