Spooky season keeps rolling on, podcast fans, and we're back with a Halloween DCOM about a rockin' mummy who can hip hop, be-bop, dance til you drop, and so forth. You get the idea. This week, Andy and Luke are talking about Under Wraps, the first ever DCOM, in which a group of young friends accidentally resurrect an ancient Egyptian mummy, who they must return to his sarcophagus before midnight on Halloween, lest his soul be lost forever. Will the kids reunite the mummy with his lost love? What is going on with that one kid's mom? How is the best part of this movie a filthy, screaming five year old? Let's find out! If you've watched Under Wraps and have your own thoughts, email them to us at momcantcookpod@gmail.com for a chance to have them read out on the show. New episodes every other Monday!

Under Wraps

Join Luke Westaway and Andy Farrant as they talk about cinema's greatest achievement: Disney Channel Original Movies. From X-TREME rollerblading, to Mermen, to homicidal smart homes, there's something for everyone in these brilliant, baffling films. Also, usually the mom character in the film is unable to cook, and this is considered richly comic. Hence the name.

How many great bands have never found mainstream success because their lead singer stands there singing, instead of rolling around on the floor doing yoga and the splits and stuff? It is literally millions. That's the predicament the band The Zettabytes find themselves in in Disney Channel Original Movie Pixel Perfect - that is until they meet Loretta Modern, who can sing, dance and is, regrettably, a sex hologram made by the world's worst boy. Will the band's original singer adapt to being usurped by a hologram? Why isn't the boy in prison? And how is this film accidentally full of trenchant observations about the perils of generative AI?

Frankie Muniz plays Justin, a plucky kid searching for a sport in which he can compete at the same level as his athletic brother Seth (So Weird's Patrick Levis). When he discovers soap box derby racing, it seems like Justin has found his calling, but will the set in their ways derby association allow him to compete with his modified car? Will crusty local misanthrope Old Man Vic share his wealth of soapbox knowledge with this wannabe racer? Is the driver essentially ballast?

Can Johnny save his increasingly large family from the poisonous influence of these bad dudes and their strikingly terrible extreme sport? Why won't his tiny uncle stop slipping through the fabric of reality? And is Johnny Tsunami a business genius, or is he just really high?

Johnny Kapahala: Back on Board

Apes. What are they all about? Can we trust them? Are they going to go ballistic and destroy our houses? If only there were some way we could ask them. Well friends, there is: sign language, the communication method that can be learned by apes. Unfortunately the ape in this movie, Jennie, isn't really interested in learning sign language, and is more interested in ape carnage and killing the mailman. Will Jennie be able to adjust to living with a human family? How quickly is she going to destroy all of their relationships? And can an ape go to prison?
