The Songs of The Muppets

YOU'RE TRASH, JUST LIKE ME Happy Birthday! That's right we are 3 years old and that means we are contractually obligated to cover another Toy Story movie. And this one is the big one. It's Toy Story 4! Will Ben blow a fuse? Or will he convince the world that the movie is, like Forky, trash. Randy Newman returns for his Disney Pixar paycheck with "I Can't Let You Throw Yourself Away" and we also briefly talk Chris Stapleton's "Ballard of a Lonesome Cowboy". Ben is bragging about his 4K steelbook blu-rays again, Dietrich knows exactly how the youthful Randy Newman talks behind the scenes and Alex has seen so many movies.

ONCE UPON A DREAM Have you been caught napping? Was that because you were actually tired or because some fairy Godmothers have put you to sleep against your will? If it's the latter, than we know the movie just for you: Sleeping Beauty. Whilst this Walt Disney classic may be a triumph of animation, do the songs stand up? We cover: "Hail to the Princess Aurora", "I Wonder", "Once Upon a Dream" and "Sleeping Beauty". Dietrich really challenges the guys with his opener, Alex does his Harry Styles impression again and Ben goes postal (codes). Follow us on Twitter: @TSFTMpod Like, snore and subscribe.

ENGLAND WILL BE PLAYING 4-4-2! Didn't that quote used to have a swear word in it? Anyway, it may not be the most popular of movie but it allows us to gift to you our FIFA World Cup special: Mike Bassett: England Manager.

WALKING DOWN THE STREET We have a rare case of That Movie From That Song on this week's episode of That Song From That Movie, as we are covering the romcom Pretty Woman. So obviously (for some) the song we are covering is "Oh, Pretty Woman" by Roy Orbison. Dietrich has the squeakiest chair known to mankind causing him audio issues, Alex's microphone stand is slowly breaking causing him audio issues and Ben is speaking into a tin can causing him audio issues.

IT'S SHOWTIME! Evil laugh! Welcome to the 2022 Halloween special of That Song From That Movie. This year we are trying to avoid repeating ourselves when whilst we break down Beetlejuice. Not spooky enough for you? Well, what about a ghostly possession to the calypso vibes of Harry Belafonte's "Day-O (The Banana Boat Song)"? Alex's knowledge of the Baldwins is pushed to its limits, Ben rejects the news and Dietrich peels back the layers of the Glass Onion. Follow us on Twitter: @TSFTMpod Like, share and subscribe. Boo!

IT'S HAPPENING... Do I hear wedding bells? No, this is typed text. However let's still get excited for our breakdown of the 2011 comedy classic: Bridesmaids. But the titular tribe of bridesmaids are not alone, they are joined by 90s pop group Wilson Phillips and their hit song: "Hold On". Ben wants to stick with just the two dogs, Dietrich lays down a challenge to the bigwigs in Hollywood and Alex absolutely remembers but also absolutely doesn't remember.
