Gillian. Hey Gillian. Pssssst…  Wanna know a secret?

We stole your DVD of PETER PAN. 

Yes folks, we have pulled off the heist of the century. In true pirate fashion, we have stolen someone’s possessions in order to provide you with that sweet podcast content you all crave.

In this episode, slap on a spanking of Pixie dust, think of happy thoughts of story foreshadowing and join us for a trip to Neverland, led by everyone’s favorite rude dude with attitude. Here we discover the Darling boys’ oddly non-existent memory functions, Wendy’s constant uphill battle for any crumb of respect, and the Crocodile’s inability to keep his food down. Odd’s fish, this is a long one, but there’s plenty to discuss!

New Year Surprise! Bonus Content!

For this very special bonus episode of Wine You Wish Upon a Star, we welcome longtime fan and family member to the show, Avery O’Neal. Having recently turned 21, she has been invited to dive into our world of cinematic tipsiness and recount a film of her choosing:

Tinkerbell: Secret of the Wings

Here we explore the magic of fairy sisterhood, forbidden love among seasons, some conveniently missing Sun Fairies that could have solved everything, and our own invention of magical creatures: Tinklebells and Tinkerbears.

Yes, we’ve strayed from the format; this film wasn’t released in theaters and is not part of our chronological roadmap. But that’s the beauty of Bonus Content! Skip over it if you’re a purist. Or don’t. Be the captain of your own internet browsing voyage.

We gather here today to mourn the loss of Bill, our favorite chimney sweeping salamander who was rocketed from this existence by a gargantuan sneeze. In Bill’s memory, let us recount the full story surrounding his disappearance, that of his oppressor:

ALICE IN WONDERLAND

That’s right, we go down the rabbit hole (see what we did there?) and follow Alice’s insatiable desire to find a rabbit party. Listen as we discuss Alice’s schizophrenic self-mumblings, the length of time dedicated to falling, the Carpenter’s culpability in oyster-cide, some very self absorbed flowers, the King of Hearts’ very specific ruling style, and drugs... lots of drugs.

Featured Wine: King Rabbit

We did it, folks! We're past the doldrums of Disney's wartime propaganda machine and into the era of CLASSIC DISNEY PRINCESSES. Get ready for a string of beloved classics, starting with 1950's Cinderella. We marvel at the extended slapstick of literal cat-and-mouse chases, our hero's comical mood swings, so many tiny clothes, and a romance that takes longer than two seconds to blossom.

Featured Wine: True Myth

Of all the stories from human history, these are the greatest mankind has to offer: a speed junkie toad and a very hungry schoolteacher.

Join us as we dive into Disney's jazzy reimagining of two classic tales in THE ADVENTURES OF ICHABOD AND MR. TOAD. Watch as humans and woodland creatures in 3-piece suits coexist like it's no big deal at all. Hear the very worst of Scottish accents. Beatbox along with Toad as he gets the dreaded "mania".

Following that, take a trip with us to upstate New York to see Brom Bones and his Sleepy Hollow Boys pranking up a storm. Join in the feasting with Ichabod Crane (no seriously, don't, you'll die). And experience the most terrifying 5 minutes ever put to celluloid film.

All this and more on the latest episode of Wine You Wish Upon A Star.

Featured Wine: Meritage by Kiamie

Noble families fight for control over the mythical lands of the forest, while an ancient enemy returns after being dormant for years.

No, it's not Game of Thrones. It's Bambi!

In this episode we discover a newfound love for everyone's favorite young prince and all his woodland friends. Seriously, guys, this movie is beautiful. We talk about that wisdom factory that is Thumper's unseen father. We uncover the secret of Bambi's magic dragon shout. We see slightly pinker versions of animals swoop in to twitter-pate our heroes. So come along with us to the forest. Hurry! Run! And don't look back!
