Silly, campy, sometimes heartwarming, and all times a feast for the senses, this movie passes in a dream that you may or may not register but all that matters is you tune in for the final dance. Lana Schwartz (writer, and author of 'Build Your Own Romantic Comedy') joins Celey and Nora to talk about one of her favorite movies, high school popularity paradoxes, and how in love ARE these friends?
We expected to love the puppies. We were NOT expecting to covet all the fashion (Debbie Mazar is a VISION?!) in this movie! Is it a pretty silly & goofy & loosely plotted children's movie? Yes. But DANG something about these dogs and the over-the-top adult performances is incredibly charming. Guest Joyah Love Spangler, (actress/choreographer/director/dog owner) sums it up in a word: PUPPIES!
It was really hard to talk about anything other than the treehouse. We thought we loved this movie but really we just LOVED that treehouse, or to put it simply: "Look, I'm not an ostrich expert." It is a weird outlier for this podcast but both Celey & Nora were obsessed as kids and we just had to revisit this Disney flick from 1960. Spoiler: the animals and many humans are not treated...great.
We ALL watched this as kids and we have NO idea if kids today would like it at all? But we do know that watching as adults makes us feel...weird about gender roles and small small kids pretending to be adults. Comedian Renee Santos is back after almost 6 YEARS to reprise her role talking about Spanky, Alfalfa, and the whole gang!

This movie is one of the rare few that is MORE relevant now than it was on its release. There are a few odd things that bother us (or break our damn hearts) more now than when we were kids, but honestly, this one rules. And made us THINK. Oh also, made Celey, Nora, & special guest brother Bram talk about reality TV too much!
It's a crossover episode! Celey is joined by Becca Roth & Lani Harms, hosts of They Thought I Was You, the Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen retrospective podcast. We watched Switching Goals and while you should definitely just re-watch the Carly Lloyd highlights from the 2015 World cup, this conversation is EXCELLENT. Were the Olsen twins really ever given a shot? How would living that life have been? And what food should you never eat on a date. It's all here!
We're back for our new season, and what a way to kick it off, Wildcats! Were we a little too old for this movie? Absolutely. But what better way to illustrate the ineffable and inexplicable charm and chemistry of this cultural touchstone?! Childhood bestie Sarah Pearl joins Celey & Nora to bop to the top!
