Life's But A Song

Welcome to Equestria! Blanche takes Jon into the realm of My Little Pony where the two discuss the latest movie in great detail. The blatant message/theme of the movie isn't missed by them, and Jon discusses how Hasbro is just trying to sell toys.

We close out spooky season with a foreign film centered around murderous mermaids. Jim is back to remind Jon to not think too hard about the fantasy science, and also complain about how this isn't an opera (which Jon agrees with). All the while, they discuss the L-O-R-E of mermaids. Happy Halloween! Film Rage Socials: @filmrageyyc Podcast Socials - Email: butasongpod@gmail.com Facebook: @butasongp...

We go to what Lauren calls the "in between" this episode to see a chamber choir from Canada compete to come back to life...like Cats.

We turn to a classic tale and a classic Disney short this episode. Shady introduces to Jon one of her favorite spooky season films. And there's a lot of speculation for this open ended movie.

This is a long episode because John and Jon needed to talk this one out. Are Jon's theories logical this episode?

Arianna enlisted Jon and Sierra to take a trip to the Haunted Mansion. Jon has never experienced the ride, so Arianna and Sierra helped him understand the Easter eggs in this movie. Plus, the three talked all things Muppets. Also, Jon made a mistake at the end, but it worked out in everyone's favor.

Well this didn't go as planned, and it's not Jon's fault for once... Aaron's Socials: @trueaaronchoi Podcast Socials - Email: butasongpod@gmail.com Facebook: @butasongpod Instagram: @butasongpod TikTok: @butasongpod Twitter: @butasongpod Next episode: I Kissed a Vampire!

We continue our journey into spooky season by heading to 1980s Hawkins, Indiana with those Stranger Things characters but in a parody musical. Joined by Mary and Steven from From the Top, the three praise the writer, laugh with the references, and are just in awe of "Barb's Turn."

Dan comes back with his first pick being the GWAR cult classic Skulhedface. He's a little trepidatious because he doesn't know how Jon feels about it because this is new territory for him.

Space, the final frontier. And the last place one would expect a musical. But Captain Sierra Rein is here to discuss her two favorite passions with one special episode. Meanwhile, Jon keeps comparing it to the musical episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

So because of a suggestion during our Kiss Me, Kate episode, Marc is back to prove (thanks to his Fozzie Bear how-to book) he's Top Banana.

We continue our other series on the podcast (A Stars is Borns) with the 1976 Barbra Streisand led remake. Jon and Roland discuss the relationship between Barbra and Kris Kirkpatrick's characters and their chemistry, as well as their singing, although Barbra wins hands down with his.

Please welcome back to the pod, in her new job title, Battles as our Don Bluth Correspondent. We travel back in time with an adorable mouse named Fievel and his adventures immigrating to America. Jon and Battles try real hard not to just talk about "Somewhere Out There," while trying not to cry.

We finish Back to School theme episodes, Tommy introduces to Jon the semi-educational TV film Free to Be...You & Me. They break down each vignette and (mostly Jon) give their strong thoughts on the songs. Also, does anyone know why there is an ellipsis in this title?

We continue with another Back to School theme episode with Rock 'n' Roll High School, where most of the lines for The Ramones had to be cut but man this movie was (mostly) hilarious! Jon and Shady have a wonderful time talking about this silly movie.

School's back in session, and Jon and Dustin follow the kids at East High (in Utah) as they put on the stage version of High School Musical. They talk about the original songs, praise how stupidly talented these actors are, and can't get over how amazing the song "Born to Be Brave" is.

We close out The Magic Flute series with the Kenneth Branagh version that is wacky, but not wacky enough. With the high concept of this movie, Jon and Aaron figure out if it helped or hurt the storytelling. But we're done with The Magic Flute...for now.

Aaron is back to talk about a very pure show that may or may not have some...undertones (Ratty and Mole are "just friends"). However the design of the show is really cool and minimal, but Aaron has some notes on the book and the music.

To close off Jon's Picks, Jon managed to coerce Nick to watch this one season show that is very interesting...on paper. They compare it to its competitor at the time (Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist) and just wonder why they decided to make this a musical?

Jon reached out to fellow podcasters Danielle and Tony, who host Point Your Toes, to discuss the iconic 1933 film version of 42nd Street. The trio discuss the histories of tap dance, theatre histories, the movie's "modern" commentary, and the period of the film's release, while also talking about the stage version.

Even though it's not Pride Month, this episode is super gay. Jon picked this masterpiece of a film to share with Jayson, and the two giggled their way through this episode because the movie is insane.

Jon brought on a new guest, and thought he was giving Dan a treat. Turns out, Jon (once again) misremembered the movie. But the two managed to talk through some of the things, and maybe figured out what the movie is about?

The reasoning behind this Jon's Pick might have been because of false information, but Jon and Sierra still enjoyed this movie. And the two come up with a great concept for a future production!

We're staying in the 80s this episode to talk about break dancing (which is oddly convenient because the Olympics just had that event). Jon brought Shady back on because of the Turbo rotation room dance, but also to discuss how cool the dancing is in this movie. And Shady is brings some of Canon Films' history to the episode.
