Bestie of the pod Lauren returns with a non-Disney film The Swan Princess, and Jon hates his life for picking it. They do come to an agreement that some of the stupid moments in the movie are fun/funny, but there is some problems with the story, too many plot holes, and Jon wants answers to the magic.

Next episode: Thumbelina!

Today’s episode is a very special one because Jon is joined by one of the actors in this movie: Ray Shell! The movie is WILD! However, Ray steps on his soapbox and makes a compelling argument on how important this movie is because of the never ending cycle of life imitating art imitating life. Plus, he has some great stories from shooting the film, and his career path. BIM is the way. Also: drugs.

Jon is joined by a new special guest, and new friend of the pod, in today's episode: Barrie Kealoha! Barrie literally brings us to school while discussing Moana by taking the time to discuss every subject. Math, English, Science, History, Foreign Languages - literally every subject, and Jon's here for it. Also, be on the lookout for a special Valentine's Day post in the near future.

Next episode: The Apple!

Joined today by composer/Bob's Burgers super fan Gregg Nekrasovas, Jon learns about the world of Bob's Burgers while trying to understand why they're doing musical versions of Die Hard and Working Girl (he's not mad about it, but feels like an 11-year-old won't know those 80s movies). They explore the pseudo-metaphor of the episode, discuss other musical moments in the series, and enjoy Carly Simon's cameo. Gregg is also creating Bob's Burgers The Musical (BBTM) which is amazing! Check out his socials for more information.

Next episode: Moana!

Sam found her way out of the department store and transported herself and Jon to Russia in order to find Anastasia, or at least learn of the real girl who inspired the not Disney movie. They discuss why they think the songs slap harder than any Disney song, and touch upon the stage version that neither saw. Also, Jon breaks down the color lime green.

Jon heads to Red Hook (which is not in Jersey as he learned) to meet up with Shady and DSpeeds at a closing record store to discuss the father/daughter relationship in Hearts Beat Loud. They talk about their emotional attachment to the movie, how much they love the original songs, and then things get weird at the end. Enjoy!

In an episode dedicated to Fan of the Pod Nicole Marie Loftus, Christina Barnes returns to travel to Paris with Jon, where everyone has a British accent (except for Gerard Butler) and the lead needs to learn about red flags! Jon tries not to be a sour puss the whole episode, and Christina is so happy to be talking about this sloppy mess of a movie. Plus, Jon has some tidbits from Wikipedia to share!

Next episode: Hearts Beat Loud (for real this time)!

It needed to be talked about. And who better than friend of the pod Tony Guerrero! Tony and Jon have a lot of thoughts and feelings about this movie - they're left with the question: Should this have been made? 5! 6! 7! 8!

Let's talk about sex, baby. But really: let's sing about sex! Super friend of the pod Jayson comes back to bow down to Audra, break down the scenes in Hello Again, and just enjoy his time again on the pod (thank god Jon didn't break him). And everyone should love this movie, and help Jon get Audra McDonald on the pod!

EPISODE 50 EVERYONE!! WE DID IT!!

Months ago, Jon created polls for people to vote for their favorite Musical Moments in Non-Musical Movies/TV, and found people to talk about the winners. Some new friends were made, but Jon brought an all stars cast of friends of the pod to this episode. Also, it's a long episode because IT'S A MILESTONE!
