August 27, 2026 Ep. 574 - The Muppets Take Manhattan (1984) (w/ Sierra Rein)
Jon wanted to do this with Sierra because she is also a Muppet expert (on top of being our Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly Correspondent). She and Jon discuss the probability of Manhattan Melodies coming to Broadway, have some costume notes for one of the humans, and just marvel at the technology the Henson Company came up with to do some truly magical filmmaking.

August 24, 2026 Ep. 573 - Jem and the Holograms (2015) (w/ Ashley Evans)
Jon really tortured himself with this one. Much like last episode, he wanted to get this one done and over with (and prays no one picks it for a Second Chance). And he thought that this was up Ashley's alley, which she gladly took the challenge of watching this without knowing anything about Jem.

August 20, 2026 Ep. 572 - Fame (2009) (w/ Samantha Blinn)
We're heading back to LaGuardia High School to check in on this new crop of Fame kids. Jon forced...umm...asked Sam to watch this movie and the two banter about how everyone treats these underage children, as well as share some fun surprises! Be sure to listen to the whole episode to get a shock of your lives!

August 17, 2026 Ep. 571 - Mulan (1998) (w/ Cullen Callaghan and Hannah Sylvester)
Jon specifically chose Hannah and Cullen to discuss this movie because he was more interested in learning and discussing the legend of Mulan. As well as how iconic this movie is, and how legendary the songs are in this movie.

August 13, 2026 Ep. 570 - Forbidden Zone (1980) (w/ Jim Evans)
While searching for topics, Jon came across this movie and by the poster alone knew that he wanted to talk about this movie with Jim. Jim loves this movie while Jon was trying to piece together his melted brain.

August 06, 2026 Ep. 568 - Firebringer (w/ Kevin Jeezy)
We're going way back in this one - 2016! Jon has brought Kevin back to talk about this Starkid musical that almost everyone knows by it's famous meme. But Jon and Kevin were entertained with this production and would like to see it done elsewhere.
