Sad It’s Done

This podcast is great. I’m not really a Disney fan, but I have really enjoyed the critical analysis and history deep dives provided here. Sad it’s finished. Hope to hear more from the hosts in other ventures.

P.S. Rachel has a great podcast voice!

Fun and interesting Disney discussions

Fantastic, thought provoking discussions that take deep dives into important topics while applying them to our favorite Disney movies! Sam and Rachel do an incredible job of researching the topic and bringing in knowledgeable guests to give the listener tremendous insight into each topic while also discussing why they are important not only to Disney films but also to our society! Viewing these films through an academic lens is such a fresh take from those of other Disney podcasts, and it is truly a different kind of Disney magic!
