In this quintessential 90s movie, an 8 year old boy is left home alone. No one notices until their entire extended family is on an airplane to Paris and then burglars are thwarted by the shenanigans of a child.

This is our Home Alone episode! We discuss everything that went wrong for Kevin to be left alone, which burglar we would rather be, and the logistics of getting back to Chicago from Paris.

Pour yourself a cocktail that will leave you feeling like you were hit in the face with an iron the next morning, and join us for this festive movie!

To perfectly sandwich the Halloween to Christmas transition, we brought out friend Jill on to talk about her favorite movie of all time, The Nightmare Before Christmas. And while Sav and Jill both are obsessed with this movie, Piff isn't the biggest fan. We discuss different aspects that we love (and hate), the artistry behind the claymation, and the one thing that we can all agree on, that Jack and Sally's "love story" does not exist in this film.

Come along for the chaos of deciphering the holiday doors with a "What's This" martini on this nostalgic journey.

In this episode, we are joined by one of Piff's oldest friends and fellow Disney lover, Tori to discuss one of her childhood favorites, A Goofy Movie. This was the first time Piff had seen it and the list of things that surprised her was extensive, and included the fact that it is a musical, the fact that Max isn't Powerline, and the fact that the plot wasn't about Max becoming a famous rockstar.

We paired this chaos with a Powerline cocktail courtesy of the blog Reel Fancy Dinners. So grab a glass and join us as we go on a road trip across the country.

Today, we are sitting down with Cedric Gegel, an actor, writer, director, and my childhood best friend’s little brother to discuss, what he calls “A Perfect Film”, The Lion King. This year also celebrates 30 years since the movie's release, which felt perfect for our 30th episode. From dynamic cinematic choices to the utter lack of cheetahs in this movie to which animals Cedric could not beat in a fight (spoiler: it’s most of them), this episode has it all.

Pour yourself a pineapple cocktail, say Hakuna Matata, and join us on this journey!

There are a lot of lessons to be learned from Disney Pixar's Ratatouille, the most popular is obviously that a great cook can come from anywhere. But there are also less popular lessons like "don't steal" and "a glass of wine is the solution". All of this and more was discussed when I sat down with Caitlin to discuss Ratatouille. From Hallucination Gusteau (HG) to the use of weaponry and violence in Disney films, we discuss it all as we drink the wine from our homes.

The Hunchback of Notre Dame was originally a novel by Victor Hugo, the same man who brought us Les Misérables. In 1996, Disney took this story and made it into a movie, and that is what we are discussing today. From the intention behind Quasimodo's name to Frollo's obsession with Esmeralda, we discuss our way through the movie with a spooky purple cocktail.

This week, Kari is back to discuss the sequel to the cult classic, Hocus Pocus. In this episode, we discuss the true victim of this movie, Mayor Traske, who just wanted to enjoy his caramel apple in his pumpkin sweater but was consistently thwarted. We also decide that we need a buddy cop spin off with Billy during his 29 years of accidental consciousness, because what else was he doing???This movie was the over the top, exaggerated, campy vibes that we loved in the original, brought to life more intentionally almost three decades later.In honor of Mayor Traske, we paired this with a Spiced Caramel Apple. So pour one out for him, and then make a second to enjoy with us!
