Rileigh felt a need to introduce her siblings to a movie she watched incessantly with friends in high school, neglecting to remember just how ridiculously sad it is, so she's sorry about that. Also, discussion on weird British party games takes up a good amount of this episode, so buckle in.

We've done it, we've found and discovered and dissected the meaning of the 80s cartoon movie: "The Last Unicorn." It's not all rainbows and unicorns, but it IS full of mystical scenes and musical numbers.

Even though Sydnee brought this one to the table, it's a movie that the Smirl siblings have long associated with their mom, and there are a lot of reasons why. So, to celebrate only one week until Mother's Day AND MaxFunDrive, let's talk about Cher!

She was making some of the world's most popular pop music of the early 2010s, when Rileigh was probably too young to be listening to some of it, but that didn't stop her from becoming one of her biggest fans; it's Katy Perry! She had some huge pop hits, and some big spinning peppermints on her bras, she was everything Rileigh wanted to be, obviously.

As usual, Teylor has introduced their siblings to a really great anime they had never heard of before, and this time it's a spoooky one! Well, more so unsettling and thrilling than spook, but great nonetheless.
