Episode 236: “With His Hand in Goofy’s Pants”

This week Host Dave Bledsoe goes to far and attacks another beloved cultural icon and is banned from the Times Square Disney Store for life. (Goofy knows what he did!) On the show this week, we keep up our vicious assault on beloved media companies by telling you all the reasons why Disney sucks! (We are definitely getting sued!)

Along the way we talk Walt, who was objectively a pretty horrible person and explain to you why. (Daddy issues.) Then we examine the myriad ways Disney has screwed over creators from it’s very beginning! (Names are named, just like the Black List) We take a long and not a little disturbing look for animated private parts in Disney flicks. (We’re not bad, we’re just drawn with need to look at cartoon poon.) Then we take you on a deep dive of all the reasons why the modern Disney corporation is WAY worse than Amazon and Google combined. (Still not as bad as Facebook, fuck you Zuck!) Finally, we wrap up with a partial list of all the looted portions of your childhood currently enriching Disney stockholders. (Don’t worry, Liz Warren is gonna get ‘em back!)

Our Sponsor this week is The Mousedela Effect, all that racism you thought you saw, you totally didn’t see! We open with George Carlin wishing Mickey a happy birthday and close with the Subhumans who come to not praise Mickey but bury him.

15 years ago, Congress kept Mickey Mouse out of the public domain. Will they do it again?
