Kidflix With Ross Weisman

Hope you pronounce this right! On today's episode, guest Angelina Meehan (@thelindayellis, Thank You Places) takes Ross on a journey of the Disney Renaissance, craps on Jason Alexander, and can't believe the existence of The Lion King 1 1/2! Angelina comes to the table with intense knowledge of everything Disney with zero notes; Ross goofs around and raps a little bit.

Note: the audio is a bit iffy from mic placement. Myth! Myth! On our very special 25th episode, we invite one of our favorite guests back for a discussion of the classic ‘70s Muppet Movie (not that Jason Segal jag). Guest Elyssa Epstein and Ross play Fuck/Marry/Kill with the Muppets, agree on how old Kermit must be in the movie, and do way too many impressions once that Pandora’s Box opens up! Later, Elyssa and Ross play a Muppet-style version of 20 Questions after surviving a jarring fire drill.

What's up, doc? On today’s episode, guest Shannon Hutchinson and Ross (@misterweisman) discuss gag overload, all the better movies that came out in 2003, and the hot mess express of the film’s production history!

On a very special episode, both host and guest keep forgetting to talk about the property they agreed to talk about. Guest Vito Scutti and Ross (@misterweisman) start things off my discussing poop and hyper specific landmarks from suburban Philadelphia! Then they try to wrap their heads around Uncle Grandpa, the complexities of fandom, and the Disney Vault! No segments, no nothing! Just two friends goofing around and having rich discussion! FYI: there is a bit of background noise at the beginning and there are occasional loud bits.

Is it Halloween in August? Animation extraordinaire Josh McMaster (joshua_mcmaster on Instagram) spews off his almost-encyclopedia knowledge of Miyazaki films.

Hide your candy stashes because guest Evan Connolly (@Finding4000) and Ross (@misterweisman) are talking the classic Disney film Heavyweights, but the boys get distracted by telling stories about their experiences at camp (including some bad campfire jokes)! How does Heavyweights stack up to Meatballs and Wet Hot American Summer? Who told Jeffrey Tambor to sport a mustache? Why the hell is the movie poster that way?? We also mention ill-timed jokes we made at camp about dead celebrities.

Oh man, this is some major league stuff right here. Guest Esther Rosen (@erosencrantz) proves how more prepared she is for the podcast than Ross (@misterweisman)! Seriously, it’s kind of freaky. Then they sing some classic instrumental tracks by the totally alive Michael Giacchino, look at their butts in the mirror, and Ross breaks his record for different mediocre impressions in a single podcast!
