146 - Wicked: Part 1 (2024)

Mikey and Ben are back this week due to POPULAR demand to talk all things Wicked (Part 1). How have the boys been these past two and a half years? How much space have they been holding for the lyrics of Defying Gravity? What is this feeling, so sudden and new?! Find out in this special one off return of Once Upon A Scream.  Follow Once Upon A Scream podcast on Instagram: @uponascream Follow Ben/Beary Poppins on Instagram: @thebearypoppins Follow Mikey on Instagram: @mykemyday

This week, Sam joins Ben to resurrect a mid-00s classic/car crash – House of Wax (2005); you know, the one with the "See Paris Die' marketing campaign and Chad Michael Murray's gratuitous pectorals. WARNING: This episode is more 2005 than Tom Cruise jumping on a sofa, jeans and a nice top on a night out, and Mr and Mrs Smith. Listener discretion is advised.  Music by purple-planet.com.

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.... someone made a horrible mistake. A horrible, horrible mistake that could never be undone.

One more time for Disney at the back: "GAY!" This week, Mikey and Ben share their views on Disney's latest controversy, get their teeth sunk into cult horror/comedy hit, Lake Placid (1999), and celebrate Mikey's birthday in virtual reality. Cause we're what? Current – and very gay, Disney. Gay. Gay. Gay. Gay. Gay.  "I'm rooting for the crocodile. I hope he swallows your friends whole. You might want to arrest me for that too. Is that a crime? To wish the chewing of law enforcement?" - Betty White. RIP.

Stop the bloody car and put it in C minor, because this week we've gone totally rogue – that's right, we're covering Shrek 2 on a Disney week, darlings, OGURRR! Come at us – especially if you look like human Shrek (fire emoji). This podcast episode is definitely not sponsored by Caliwater; but, if you're reading this, V-Hudge... perhaps, it should be?
