We're joined by Eric Michaud (@theaterbear on instagram) as we enter into ANOTHER musical franchise! It's— you guessed it, Romeo and Juliet, but this time it's ALSO an allegory. Our Zombies face some nasty discrimination in a town that fancies itself perfect, yet is actually so closed minded that it won't accept a character who...has white hair. We are also unsure of what zombies actually are... because these zombies are different from what we thought zombies were. From how they're created to how they behave (even before they use z-bands)...we're confused. Please explain to us what zombies are @ITDVPodcast on twitter.

You voted and we made a minnie Disney afternoon! We discuss the pilot episodes of DuckTales (1987), Chip 'n' Dale Rescue Rangers (1989), and Gargoyles (1994). Tell us which show has the best theme song and which shows we should cover next @ITDVpodcast on twitter!

We return to Aurodon with Oman Najam (@OmarNajam) to check in on our quartet of villain children as they get used to life at their new school. Mal's having doubts about her new life, while some truly rotten to the core kids on the Isle of the Lost have big feelings about being left behind. Some great dance numbers and a Hook style pirate fight ensue and we're left on a cliffhanger as Ursula's daughter Uma teases that this still isn't the end of the Descendants' story! Tell us which couples you ship on the ship @ITDVpodcast on twitter.

We go happily ever after with Sammy Smart (@sammyyysmart) to watch a movie (?) about what happens AFTER Tangled (2010) and BEFORE Tangled: The Series (2017). We hang with some old characters, meet some new ones, and mostly wait for something exciting to happen. Tell us what storylines you think should have been included in this petite transitional film at @ITDVPodcast on twitter.

Never met no-BOD-y...like YOU! Yet we HAVE met a fantastic moment in time where tamagotchis thrived and boy bands ruled our hearts. Fortunately, not much has changed since 2002, when Turning Red is set. Meilin is changing...but not in the way most 13 year old girls do, she becomes a giant red panda. Although her relatives fight to tame Mei's panda, she and her amazing friend group have a little fun with it and invent a moneymaking scheme to fund their trip to see 4*Town, the hottest boy band since...EVER!??!?!? Tell us how many more 4*Town songs should have been featured @ITDVPodcast on twitter!

It's a body swap, y'all and fortunately Jason Saenz (@jasoncsaenz) is here to dissect this simple story made bonkers and confusing. Old cell phones act as totems which accidentally SWAP Ellie and Jack's bodies. GET THIS, they each have a big event coming up that is IMPERATIVE they do well for. Fortunately the pair figure out pretty quickly the mystical magical logic that they have to help each others' lives to improve their own and do some real healing. Tell us what your totem would look like @ITDVPodcast on twitter.

We have a ton of kids to babysit this week, fortunately Voice Actor Triya Leong (@triyp on instagram) joins us to help break apart one cRaZy night! A remake of the classic 80s film, this movie offers not one but TWO babysitters! Jenny and Lola both find themselves babysitting on the same night, not before long, the two households combine to go on an all night adventure where everything that can go wrong DOES. The two sitters do all they can to take care of the kids, while not letting on to their parents that many many many things have gone awry that require parent attention. Tell us your craziest babysitting stories @ITDVpodcast on Twitter!

We're going back to the 90s when Presidents and their kids were all the rage in movies! Duncan really wants a date and Hallie really wants to get away from her Secret Service detail. Duncan manages to run into her and has NO idea she's the first kid (not to be confused with First Kid (1996)) and asks her out. An exciting night of hijinks ensues after they eschew the suits. What hors d'oeuvres would you snack on? Tell us @ITDVPodcast on twitter.

We're joined by comedian Roland Mechanik (@roland_mechanik in instagram) for a freaky Halloween! Smart gal Cleo feels invisible, until she actually turns her sister Molly invisible with science!!! Naturally, Cleo has to pose as Molly all day and not a soul questions that it's a different human living out very important activities specific to Molly's life and future. It's ALSO Halloween and boy do we get some invisible antics and amazing CG graphics. What would your immediate plan be if you turned your sister invisible? Tell us @ITDVPodcast on Twitter!

We have a ball with H. Alan Scott (@HAlanScott) and strangely don't GO to a ball in this sensation inspired by almost every Disney classic imaginable. A huge moment in DCOM history, some of our favorite villains' offspring find themselves in a land far away from their own land of outcasts. Will their "wicked to the core" personas fit into a school of princes and princesses? Will their parents get revenge? Will family drama prevail? Will there be a sequel? To all, YES. Tell us if you think Descendants is a musical @ITDVPodcast on twitter!

Teen Beach 2 comes to life inside the vault as CheeChee herself, Chrissie Fit (@chrissiefit), joins us at the beach for a very Wet Side Story.

We're joined by actor and comedian Alexia Dox (@alexiadox) for what starts as a bad hair day and continues as unrelated chaos. Super coder Monica can't make a decision without polling a very attentive follower base, on prom day all her plans go awry as she's met by a suspicious "FBI" agent looking for a necklace she recently bought. The two go off on a madcap adventure and there are about one hundred more plot points where those come from! Let us know what kind of hair day you're having @ITDVPodcast on twitter.

We take a trip to the Silly Symphony for one of Walt Disney's first cartoon shorts. Tell us what you thought of the short @ITDVPodcast!

Danielle Perez (@DivaDelux) ventures into a secret lab with us... that's very easy to escape from. Mae and Gabby just want a date for the dance, so they use ~the internet~ to design one, unknowingly hacking into a top secret government system. Things begin to look up when Mae's new super-hunk arrives at school, however the gals have no idea where he came from or that the army is looking for Albert (him), who isn't actually human, but IS a robot designed to be used as a weapon. Tell us what your bot-friend would be like @ITDVPodcast on twitter!

Tell us which role you'd play in the HSM universe @ITDVPodcast

Another year, another SPOOKY DCOM!
