It's a Shit World After All

Bridger has never seen a Disney movie, and Jackie grew up watching and loving them. The two friends (re)visit these animated films and discuss them, aiming to answer the question: are the worlds that Disney Animation Studios created shit after all? New episodes every two weeks.

We discuss Alice in Wonderland (1951) and end up talking about an absurdist movie we like more, Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022), as well as a range of topics from Bridger’s love of Buffy the Vampire Slayer to Jackie’s hatred of the transatlantic accent and insistence that this movie had meaning.We’re going on hiatus again because the world is a dumpster fire. But we’ll be back some day next year maybe. Byeeee
