Hear that school bell ringing? Drop those textbooks and pick up a tetherball, it's time for RECESS! We talk about the joyful highs and shocking lows of Disney's sociopolitcal school simulation, talk about the charismatic power of Spinelli, pin down the politics of the Ashleys, and give our best pitches for Recess's version of modern political events! What a show, and what a podcast!
