What is literally everyone’s problem in this movie? This week Raven and Campbell discuss plot holes, bad educators, and possibly the worst dialogue known to humankind in the 2022 musical film, The Magic Flute.

Queen of the Night aria used for the playtime segment was performed by Rainelle Krause with the English National Opera for a 2023 run of The Magic Flute. Listen on your own at Queen of the Night | The Magic Flute ǀ English National Opera.
