Infinite guilt trips, innocence lost, and a donkey trafficking scheme... Oh lawd, it's about to get pretty dark! In their first episode of 2023, these ‘90s kids close the book on pop culture’s most renowned puppet (through both the novel and the Disney film), explore the social and political context from which the original story emerged, and follow the threads of its impact all the way through our collective millennial childhood. Get ready, y'all, we're going to Pleasure Island!
