    Deep Dive: Inside Out 2

    This week on the Deep Dive we're talking about Disney Pixar's newest film Inside Out 2. Joy and all the other motions are back, and they've got some new friends like Anxiety, Embarrassment, and Ennui? Join us as we discuss the movie's themes, and the ways it explores the inner workings of our minds and our emotions. Also, is Envy an emotion? In the Shallow End, we discuss The Acolyte on Disney+ and the Tony Awards. Also, this is our last Deep Dive for a couple of months as we take a bit of a break over the summer.
