Connor & Jon bring in Elise Yeomans to crack open the Disney vault and discuss The Black Cauldron. The hosts think the film should be locked away, while Elise makes some good cases on its worth and originality. It's a fascinating story of a media giant's darkest time and the road it paved to create some of the greatest animated films of all time.
