Jon is hoping that this pick was a good one for Kevin because he's been choosing really bad ones. The two get into the Henson of it all while praising the technological advances this movie did for puppeteering. Also, "Rainbow Connection."Kevin's Link: https://linktr.ee/kevinwatchesmoviesPodcast Socials -Email: [email protected]: @butasongpodInstagram: @butasongpodThreads: @butasongpodYouTube: @butasongpodNext episode: Rock-a-Doodle!

Jon invited back Kendra to revisit our Millennial childhoods with this Nickelodeon movie that serves as a way to introduce a new character to the Rugrats world. They talk a lot about the music and how this soundtrack was important to kids at the time, and Kendra makes a good point about the decline of children's entertainment trusting the comprehension skills of their audience.Crushgasm's Links: https://linktr.ee/CrushgasmPodcast Socials -Email: [email protected]: @butasongpodInstagram: @butasongpodThreads: @butasongpodNext episode: The Muppet Movie (1979)!

It's Jon's birthday week! And surprise: it's also Steven's birthday week! The two delve into the 2006 revival of Company because Jon loves this version of the show.

Happy Presidents' Day! Jon brought Matt Koplik back to the pod to discuss this very dark and very funny Sondheim musical.

Jon and Aaron head to 1950's Baltimore (by way of 1990) to discuss John Waters's big studio movie musical, and they have some thoughts on the tone of the movie, the unrealistic tears, and the gay squares.Aaron's Socials: @trueaaronchoiAaron's Twitch: @truechoistoryPodcast Socials -Email: [email protected]: @butasongpodInstagram: @butasongpodThreads: @butasongpodNext episode: Assassins!
