The Tenth Anniversary Special: A Panel with John D. Beck, Ron Hart, Betsy Sullenger, and Andy Fickman

To celebrate 10 years of Liv and Maddie, we are joined by four of the most important people involved in bringing this show to life. Join us as we discuss several aspects of the show, from its early beginnings to the final moments filming. We'll go over how the story of Twin-a-Rooney was developed, what they remember about the day itself (July 19, 2013), and how the premiere being paired with the premiere of Teen Beach Movie was a driving factor in production. Plus, we even uncover a mystery about Paulie the Porcupine.

It's our first new episode of the year! First, I'll give you an update on what's been going on during our hiatus and what to expect from the future of the podcast. Then, enjoy an interview with Jody Margolin Hahn, director of six episodes of Liv and Maddie, in which we discuss individual episodes, her experiences on other Disney Channel shows, Liv and Maddie's similarities to Side Hustle, and more!

Johnathan McClain wrote four episodes of Liv and Maddie with his writing partner, Kali Rocha (better known as Karen Rooney), and is here with us today to tell us about his experience on the show! Hear what it was like for him to help create iconic characters, craft more mature storylines, and more!

I've always believed that one of the things that sets Liv and Maddie apart from other shows of its kind is its plethora of Easter eggs: fun little nods and in-jokes hidden throughout the show. In today's episode, I go through every Easter egg I've been able to gather, from reference to notable names to special cameos and everything in between!

Today, we are joined by Aunt Dena herself, Jolie Jenkins! Hear all about her experience on Liv and Maddie from funniest moments to emotional memories, as well as what it was like returning to Disney Channel to guest star on Sydney to the Max!

Today, we're ranking each of Liv and Maddie's seasons! I've broken each one down into five categories to decide where they rank: the twins' relationship, Liv's development, Parker, the season arc, and recurring characters. See what ends up on top!

The original Linda and Heather are here with us today! Both co-executive producers, they share what it was like working on the show, their experiences writing several episodes, how their namesake characters came to be, and how Linda ended up with the two kittens who played Stacy!

Much like how each season of Liv and Maddie has its funniest/"chaos" episode, I've noticed that each season has a "feminism episode," each with messages involving positivity towards women but each tackling a different subject. Today, I'm diving into each of these four episodes, analyzing them, and talking about how powerful and important they are for the children watching Disney Channel.

You've heard me go on about how much I love Josh Wilcox, now it's time to talk about Josh with Josh himself! Lucas Adams joins us to dive into his time on Liv and Maddie, what his audition process was like, his favorite and funniest memories from working on the show, and everything in between!

Just as each season has its standout strongest episodes, each has its standout funniest episodes! Today, we go through each of the Liv and Maddie episodes that have made me laugh the hardest from each season and talk about why, including a concept I like to call "the chaos episode."
