S1E58 - A Goofy Movie with Jaimie Olmstead

Published: Sept. 28, 2020, 11 a.m.

One of the most relatable animated films Disney ever made, “A Goofy Movie” is about the complicated bonds between fathers and sons, which can only be strengthened by an attack from the mythical creature Bigfoot. Joined by Jaimie Olmstead, we explore everything that makes this mid 90’s road trip movie truly “goofy”, like possum-themed amusement parks, Cheese Whiz architecture, dark nights of the soul in a hot tub, how 90’s comedies only worked due to characters lying, and why high school pranks are a gateway to state-sanctioned executions. In the words of pop star Powerline, “Open up your eyes/take a look at me/Get THIS PODCAST fixed in your memory!”
