Trigger/Content Warning for strong language and discussion of violent racism.
This episode is sadly but proudly dedicated to James Horner, who we didn't talk about nearly as much as we should have.
It's a rather special one this time, as the Disnerds are joined by TWO - count'em - TWO guests! We are joined by both Tanya AND Kiva, and a lovely time's had by all. There's actually even a surprising amount of Disney talk in this episode, along with Don Bluth, Dreamworks, and...Kid 'n Play's House Party??

First off, please excuse any slight audio oddness, and also no offence is meant towards any known or unknown Chads! Except the princes.
This time around, Emily & Mike are joined by social justice comics artist extraordinaire Kiva Bay, who was gracious/hyped enough to join us to talk about 1973's very furry Robin Hood. After returning to the present, there's some discussion about Cinderella, Marvel and (*shudder*) Descendants, and you know what? It's all Quite Good. We think.

Another full episode!,
This time around, Emily and Mike are honoured to be joined by the originator of the I Need Diverse Games hashtag initiative, Tanya! We do, of course, discuss videogames and diversity - there is some Disney in there, too - as well as the un-reality of some holiday destinations, the loveliness of Chicago, the strange fear some folks have of diversity, and why YOU should go ahead and do a podcast.
Yes, YOU.
Only if you want to, y'know.
