    77. How Animorphs Teaches About the Horrors of War with special guest Livi Dom

    You don’t wanna get yeerked! Today we are (finally) exploring the harrowing world of the Animorphs series by K.A. Applegate, just after its 30th anniversary. None of us ever dared to read these books as kids, so we invited the best expert we know to lead us on this journey: Livi Dom! She’s read all 62 books and she’s here to make sure we get all the facts straight, even if she needs to use thought-speak to do so. So hold onto your human brains, listener, and tune in as we discuss dark yet important themes of being a child soldier, gaining empathy for your enemy, and asking “would you love me if I was a worm?” Extra spoiler alert: This episode focuses primarily on Books 1, 2, 3, 19, and 29 but also features topics and lore from the extended Animorphs canon. __________________________________________ Hosted by Michael Keane, Jino Jang-Hansen, Victoria Cheng With Livi Dom - https://www.instagram.com/dinolivi/  Produced by MouseKnight Studios Edited by Victoria Cheng Music from WOW Sound Sign up for our newsletter: https://www.patreon.com/cw/MouseKnightStudios Follow Nostalgia Club: https://linktr.ee/nostalgiaclubpodcast  Follow MouseKnight Studios: https://linktr.ee/mouseknightstudios  Support us on Ko-fi: ⁠⁠https://ko-fi.com/mouseknightstudios  __________________________________________ 00:00 Intro 03:20 Livi’s Background 08:35 Vibes & First Impressions of the World 19:39 Book 1: The Invasion 32:50 Morphing Mechanics 40:27 Where are the Andalites? 43:20 Fandom, Adaptations, and Companion Books 47:57 Taking Kids Seriously 52:11 Book 19: The Departure 1:09:57 Book 29: The Sickness 1:31:00 Other Characters Who Morph 1:37:51 Tobias 1:41:57 Choose Your Bandit 1:45:56 The Hork-Bajir Chronicles 1:51:06 The Upcoming Adaptation 1:54:11 Reading Guide 2:01:31 Favorite Morphs & Characters 2:08:00 Final Thoughts

    76. Pokémon Was Best When Everyone Was Broke

    Prepare for trouble! We’re starting off Season 6 with a highly requested dive into the world of Pokémon! This episode will focus primarily on the first season of Pokémon: Indigo League, but we also meander to other aspects of the Pokémon world. Jino reminisces about improbable evolution playground rumors, Michael recalls the secret to getting two Feraligatrs in Pokémon Gold and Silver, and Victoria shares her favorite Ditto lore. Tune in to hear our thoughts on computer phones, Team Rocket’s narrative utility, and why the show was at its best when all the characters were broke. __________________________________________ Hosted by Michael Keane, Jino Jang-Hansen, Victoria Cheng Produced by MouseKnight Studios Edited by Jino Jang-Hansen Music from WOW Sound Sign up for our newsletter: https://www.patreon.com/cw/MouseKnightStudios Follow Nostalgia Club: https://linktr.ee/nostalgiaclubpodcast  Follow MouseKnight Studios: https://linktr.ee/mouseknightstudios  Support us on Ko-fi: ⁠⁠https://ko-fi.com/mouseknightstudios __________________________________________ 00:00 Intro & Vibes 14:11 Background Knowledge - Games, Shows, Cards, & More! 34:14 Rewatch Thoughts 39:49 Trading Pokémon & Pokémon Designs 47:38 The Show’s Personality 52:03 Pokémon Tech & Logic 57:12 Favorite Moments 01:01:22 Ditto Lore 01:05:32 Pokémon Go 01:07:01 Merchandise 01:11:35 What Next? 01:13:58 Favorite Pokémon

    75. Replaced By a Minion from Despicable Me?!

    FREEZE RAY!! It’s the Season 5 finale of Nostalgia Club, and you know what that means… another cursed, animated classic! This one comes in the form of Despicable Me (2010), though according to Jino, the movie isn’t cursed so much as ~surrounded~ by cursed energy. Victoria knows this personally, and she shares her own deep lore cut from the banana-y cloth of the infamous minions! Also, Michael finally learns why Jino and Victoria pronounce “girls” as “gorls,” like, all the time. So prick up those ears, listeners! All hands to stations! Tonight… we steal… the MOON!!! __________________________________________ Hosted by Michael Keane, Jino Jang, Victoria Cheng Produced by MouseKnight Studios Edited by Victoria Cheng Music from WOW Sound Follow Nostalgia Club: https://linktr.ee/nostalgiaclubpodcast  Follow MouseKnight Studios: https://linktr.ee/mouseknightstudios  Support us on Ko-fi: ⁠⁠https://ko-fi.com/mouseknightstudios  __________________________________________ 00:00 Intro 08:47 Our Vibes 16:37 Iconic Memes 20:59 Minions at the Olympics 23:26 Plot Begins - Meet Gru 27:18 The Plan to Steal the Moon 31:38 The Gorls & Becoming a Parent 39:45 Gru’s Childhood 41:55 Stealing the Moon! 44:01 Rescuing the Gorls 49:49 Happy Ending 51:54 Victoria’s Minions Lore

    74. Join the School of Rock and Stick It to the Man - with special guest Mitra

    We pledge allegiance to the School of Rock, the 2003 movie that taught us that a little crime is fine as long as it inspires the kids. Joining us is Mitra, a professional Jack Black appreciator who basically has this whole thing memorized. She leads Victoria, Michael, and Jino in their analysis of these incredibly talented kids, their secretly sad substitute teacher, and a principal who really deserves a vacation. So grab your guitar (or keyboard, or drumkit, or cello) and prepare your soul for a heartwarming tale that rocked so hard it changed the world. __________________________________________ Hosted by Michael Keane, Jino Jang, Victoria Cheng With Mitra Produced by MouseKnight Studios Edited by Victoria Cheng Music from WOW Sound Follow Nostalgia Club: https://linktr.ee/nostalgiaclubpodcast  Follow MouseKnight Studios: https://linktr.ee/mouseknightstudios  Support us on Ko-fi: ⁠⁠https://ko-fi.com/mouseknightstudios  __________________________________________ 00:00 Intro 03:53 Our Vibes 14:56 Plot Summary 17:44 The Students 20:14 Dewey’s Impact on the Kids 27:21 Some Favorite Kid Arcs - Tomika, Lawrence, Freddy 33:50 Favorite Ms. Mullins Moments 42:13 Childhood Takeaways 45:37 Music Licensing 48:51 The Look of the Movie 49:59 Gordon! 51:49 Dewey’s Songwriting Skills 54:13 How does money work?? 55:51 Sticking It to the Man 57:34 The TV Show 1:00:18 Dewey’s Sadness 1:03:16 The Final Song 1:08:07 Opening Credits 1:10:55 Michael’s Own School of Rock Experience 1:13:35 Enya Mention 1:15:56 Billy! 1:17:40 Other Memorable Details

    73. Haunting the Narrative In The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes

    The show’s not over until the mockingjay sings. Today, we’re diving back into the world of The Hunger Games, but this time from the twisted perspective of Coriolanus Snow. Victoria loved rereading this book and picking out even more details that call back to other installments in the series. Jino was initially hesitant to read about a bad, bad man, but found value in following the journey of someone you’re not supposed to sympathize with. Michael was completely captivated by the brilliant character work that Suzanne Collins did in this book and presents us with his ever-thoughtful analysis. Join us as we discuss the early development of the Games, what we think happened to Lucy Gray, and how (unfortunately) Snow lands on top. __________________________________________ Hosted by Michael Keane, Jino Jang, Victoria Cheng Produced by MouseKnight Studios Edited by Jino Jang Music from WOW Sound Follow Nostalgia Club: https://linktr.ee/nostalgiaclubpodcast  Follow MouseKnight Studios: https://linktr.ee/mouseknightstudios  Support us on Ko-fi: ⁠⁠https://ko-fi.com/mouseknightstudios __________________________________________ 00:00 Intro 01:53 Our Vibes 12:54 Snow’s Character 18:27 Climbing Back Up the Capitol Ladder 22:26 Making the Hunger Games Entertaining 26:09 Tributes Treatment 28:44 Dr. Gaul (and the Snakes) 34:45 Propaganda Machine 41:25 Helping Lucy Gray Win 47:18 Coriolanus’ Mindset Throughout the Games 53:29 Sejanus & the Natural State of Humanity 1:05:51 Peacekeeping in District 12 1:12:06 Literary Influences 1:14:37 Snow’s Final Turn 1:23:43 Lucy Gray’s Fate 1:27:00 Back to the Capitol 1:29:40 District 13 Theory 1:31:15 Recontextualizations for the Original Trilogy 1:37:05 The Covey Legacy

    72. Dunking on the Cavalry with Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron

    Get off of my back! And go watch Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron. Especially if you’re like Victoria, and enjoy watching this unbreakable horse do a lot of breaking men’s bones! But, you know, comedically! Jino and Michael track his many breaks from captivity, and countless more viewers feel the break in their hearts - for Spirit will submit to no rider, no matter the emotional bond. Unless, of course, there are sequels to be made. Whoops, hahaha. Was the West won or lost? You decide…. __________________________________________ Hosted by Michael Keane, Jino Jang, Victoria Cheng Produced by MouseKnight Studios Edited by Victoria Cheng Music from WOW Sound Follow Nostalgia Club: https://linktr.ee/nostalgiaclubpodcast  Follow MouseKnight Studios: https://linktr.ee/mouseknightstudios  Support us on Ko-fi: ⁠⁠https://ko-fi.com/mouseknightstudios __________________________________________ 00:00 Intro 03:01 Our Vibes 15:56 Plot Summary 28:21 Historical…Accuracy? 30:07 Sequels & Deeper Themes 35:18 The Music!! 38:43 Victoria’s Emotional Connection 43:50 Little Creek’s Role 45:21 The Ending, Movie Structure, & Final Thoughts
