What's up, gang? This week, Josh takes the wheel for one of the most heartbreaking mysteries in Hollywood history—the tragic story of Judith Barsi.

You probably know her voice even if you don't recognize her name. At just ten years old, Judith had already appeared in over 70 commercials and landed iconic voice roles that still resonate with audiences today. She was the voice behind Ducky in The Land Before Time and Anne-Marie in All Dogs Go to Heaven—characters whose optimistic catchphrases like "Yep! Yep! Yep!" masked a devastating reality happening off-screen.

Josh dives deep into what made Judith so special in the industry, why directors fought to cast her despite her small stature, and the warning signs that everyone seemed to miss. The gang also discusses similar cases of young stars whose bright lights were extinguished too soon, including Jonathan Brandis and Aaron Carter.

But it's not all heavy stuff—Shane and Josh also catch up on winter weather survival stories (including that infamous rice cake incident from their youth), family updates about a new baby girl, and their thoughts on period dramas getting historical details hilariously wrong.

Join us as we remember a voice that touched millions, and explore why Hollywood's youngest stars often face its darkest shadows.
