Description

A podcast that lives in the land of musicals. I'm joined by a new guest each episode to discuss either musical movies, musical TV series, or the musical episode of a show.

In a very special episode, Jon got in touch with the director of this docu-film, Shannon Walsh, to discuss that this isn't a musical but should be a musical. It's truly a movie about love, and Shannon gives some behind the scenes stories about the process of making this film.And we got SLee on the pod!Shannon's Links: https://linktr.ee/shannondawnwalsh?utm_source=linktree_profile_share&ltsid=e36123ac-6a46-4cdf-a25e-f9a1aee6532aSLee's Instagram: @justcallmesleeAdrianne & the Castle Links: https://linktr.ee/AdrianneAndtheCastle?utm_source=linktree_profile_share&ltsid=d2332228-0d79-4fbd-a542-0c37eb539a6ePodcast Socials -Email: butasongpod@gmail.comFacebook: @butasongpodInstagram: @butasongpodThreads: @butasongoidTikTok: @butasongpodTwitter: @butasongpodNext episode: An American Tail: Fievel Goes West!
Colden brings us a long forgotten by most people (not Colden, obviously) epically long Disney movie about an eccentric millionaire in Philadelphia who owned alligators. That's a better summary than the one on IMDb in our opinion.Colden's Social -Instagram: @coldenlambWebsite: www.coldenlamb.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ColdenLambA Marc Blitzstein Archive YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BlitzsteinArchivePodcast Socials -Email: butasongpod@gmail.comFacebook: @butasongpodInstagram: @butasongpodThreads: @butasongoidTikTok: @butasongpodTwitter: @butasongpodNext episode: Adrianne & the Castle!
Jon got two-thirds of The Love of Cinema Podcast to talk about this epic movie! Jeff and John share personal stories they have associated with this movie, and the three keep giving the Coen brothers and Roger Deakins love for their brillianceThe Love of Cinema Socials: https://linktr.ee/theloveofcinemaPodcast Socials -Email: butasongpod@gmail.comFacebook: @butasongpodInstagram: @butasongpodTikTok: @butasongpodTwitter: @butasongpodNext episode: The Happiest Millionaire!
Not a musical, but still very important to talk about. Jon gets on his Judy soapbox, while Tommy tries to reel him in to discuss the movie. Also, this is one of Jon's favorite novels, so he brings it up a lot. Like, A LOT.Tommy's Socials: @spectroplutoPodcast Socials -Email: butasongpod@gmail.comFacebook: @butasongpodInstagram: @butasongpodTikTok: @butasongpodTwitter: @butasongpodNext episode: O Brother, Where Art Thou?
We're heading back to the early days of television to visit I Love Lucy.

Welcome to Equestria! Blanche takes Jon into the realm of My Little Pony where the two discuss the latest movie in great detail. The blatant message/theme of the movie isn't missed by them, and Jon discusses how Hasbro is just trying to sell toys.Blanche's Instagram: @serpentsharkladyThe Afictionados Links: https://linktr.ee/theafictionadosPodcast Socials -Email: butasongpod@gmail.comFacebook: @butasongpodInstagram: @butasongpodTikTok: @butasongpodTwitter: @butasongpodNext episode: I Love Lucy - "Lucy Goes to Scotland"!
We close out spooky season with a foreign film centered around murderous mermaids. Jim is back to remind Jon to not think too hard about the fantasy science, and also complain about how this isn't an opera (which Jon agrees with). All the while, they discuss the L-O-R-E of mermaids.

We turn to a classic tale and a classic Disney short this episode. Shady introduces to Jon one of her favorite spooky season films.

This is a long episode because John and Jon needed to talk this one out. Are Jon's theories logical this episode?John's Linktree: https://linktr.ee/johnflynn99?utm_source=linktree_profile_share&ltsid=fe3657de-b941-4ca6-97cd-56cd0d46c45dPodcast Socials -Email: butasongpod@gmail.comFacebook: @butasongpodInstagram: @butasongpodTikTok: @butasongpodTwitter: @butasongpodNext episode: The Legend of Sleepy Hollow!
Arianna enlisted Jon and Sierra to take a trip to the Haunted Mansion. Jon has never experienced the ride, so Arianna and Sierra helped him understand the Easter eggs in this movie. Plus, the three talked all things Muppets.Also, Jon made a mistake at the end, but it worked out in everyone's favor.Arianna’s Socials -Instagram/TikTok: @ladyaria_Website: www.ariannaarmon.comSierra’s Instagram: @sierrareinMarquee Five: @marqueefivePodcast Socials -Email: butasongpod@gmail.comFacebook: @butasongpodInstagram: @butasongpodTikTok: @butasongpodTwitter: @butasongpodNext episode: The Happiness of the Katakuris!

We continue our journey into spooky season by heading to 1980s Hawkins, Indiana with those Stranger Things characters but in a parody musical. Joined by Mary and Steven from From the Top, the three praise the writer, laugh with the references, and are just in awe of "Barb's Turn."From the Top! link: https://linktr.ee/fromthetoppodcastPodcast Socials -Email: butasongpod@gmail.comFacebook: @butasongpodInstagram: @butasongpodTikTok: @butasongpodTwitter: @butasongpodNext episode: The Toxic Avenger: The Musical!
Dan comes back with his first pick being the GWAR cult classic Skulhedface. He's a little trepidatious because he doesn't know how Jon feels about it because this is new territory for him.

Please welcome back to the pod, in her new job title, Battles as our Don Bluth Correspondent. We travel back in time with an adorable mouse named Fievel and his adventures immigrating to America.

We finish Back to School theme episodes, Tommy introduces to Jon the semi-educational TV film Free to Be...You & Me. They break down each vignette and (mostly Jon) give their strong thoughts on the songs. Also, does anyone know why there is an ellipsis in this title?
