    How it is now…

    State of the show, and state of my sanity. The technical hits keep coming, the show is under attack on Facebook, and my life outside the show is a shambles.

“THE” Show for Disney Fans!

Simply amazing: Festive, funny, informative, rich in detail and always entertaining - the stories behind some of our favourite films and a deep dive into the worlds of fantasy, folklore, history & literature (personal fav: ‘The Legend of Sleepy Hollow’...I mean, ‘The Adventures Of Ichabod and Mr. Toad’, of course!...) Been listening for a long time now. Please keep up the good work, and thanks for many great listens (and more to come, I’m sure)!

101 Dalmatians Pt 2?

Love the show. 101 Dalmatians Part 2 is missing! I can only see 1 and 3.
Help!

Well worth the listen

I love this show! It is worth more than five stars. It is well researched and insightful. I really enjoy the comparison between the original literary works and Disney’s version. It makes cleaning my house much more fun. I have also added to my book collection because of how well the original works are presented. Please keep up the wonderful work!
