Disney Dummies x Pixar Pals PodCavern

It’s time to get back to basics, back to foundations, back to…dare we say…the elements? The Pixar Pals are following the fiery young Lumen family to Element City as they build a new home, business, and life in a completely unfamiliar land that’s less than friendly to fire types. But when sparks fly between the Lumen’s daughter Ember and city inspector Wade, Elemental really starts to heat up.

Have you ever wanted to know more about your favourite space ranger? Turns out it doesn’t matter, because Pixar is going to tell you anyways, as the Pixar Pals blast off with Lightyear - the fictional-turned-actual movie about a fictional astronaut turned fictional-turned-actual toy. Are you confused yet? Not to worry, the Pals have already sent an SOS to Star Command about where in the universe things went wrong, and as soon as they get the hyperspace fuel crystal right we’ll escape the effects of time dilation! Also, there’s a cute cat robot.

Some might argue that a mother’s love is the greatest power of all, but in Turning Red, a teenage girl’s boy band obsession will give that love a run for its money - that is, if she can make enough money to afford the concert tickets. While the Pixar Pals learn pretty quickly that there’s Nobody Like U, their fellow 4*Townies Meilin and friends navigate the complicated and often contradictory priorities that come with familial responsibility, extraordinary friendship, and growing up a tiny bit different from everyone else.

They say everything’s better down where it’s wetter, but what if the seagrass isn’t always greener? The Pixar Pals are following the current of a curious young sea monster who’s about to learn a thing or two about wanting to be where the people are - as well as where the pasta, Vespas, and gelato can be found - while a village is turned upside down forever as Luca lands on, well, land, and discovers what it means to accept and be accepted for exactly who you are. It’s a heartwarming tale that’s cold blooded - in the best way.

A little spark can be a handy thing for lighting a fire, but what’s a soul to do when they can’t seem to find theirs? Enter Joe, a not-quite-dead man walking who’s looking for any possible route from the great beyond back to Earth - but preferably one that’s going to get him to his gig at 7 tonight. As Joe encounters many a misadventure in his attempts to find his way back, he and the Pixar Pals are about to learn a valuable lesson about finding your spark, discovering your purpose, and living every minute.

In a world of dungeons, dragons, and classic teenage high school drama, it’s tough being an elf who just wants to fit in - and as the Pals will learn in Onward, overenthusiastic older brothers don’t exactly make things any easier. But while it can take a lot of imagination to get past a sibling’s seemingly embarrassing hobbies or odd quirks to embrace them for who they are, in the end, their own extraordinary imagination might turn out to be the best thing about them.
