ACOFAE Podcast Presents: Tomb of the Sun King: "Yes, yes tiny anchors." ACOFAE said that there would be more Egypt in their future and Tomb of the Sun King is exactly what Laura Marie and Jessica Marie were talking about. Remembering that advertising works, Laura Marie in particular (for reasons) is thrilled to jump into this delicious adventure story that reunites readers with Adam and Ellie and gifts readers Constance and Neil. Adorable and hilarious nicknames aside, this time our historical heroes are in Egypt and things are afoot again with our villains from book 1. Full of exploring, learning, shitting on Neil, relying on the strength of women, and shitting again on Neil, Tomb of the Sun King is one of the most delightful books ACOFAE has read in 2025.

We also touch on the legacy of Howard Ashman and the subtle little touches that almost made it into the first film, how Return of Jafar feels lesser and how King of Thieves ends the series of films on a better note.It's time to head to a land in a faraway place where the caravan camels roam with the Aladdin Trilogy.It's another TWIG Loose Cannon.

Renato fährt mit seinem E-Cargo-Velo von Belp nach Biel, lässt sich vom Veloladen-Michel fast auf den Chasseral jagen, schreit beim Abwärtsfahren britische Weihnachtslieder in den Wald hinein und meint, das sei ein Durchbruch in seiner Therapie. Dann geht es um den Zuzüger*innen-Apéro in Belp, wo die Blasmusik Billy Jean von Michael Jackson spielt, Vater und Sohn Müller aus dem Gemeinderat ein Belp-Lied auf die Melodie von Aladdins „a whole new world“ schmettern und das so gut machen, dass Renato auch ganz ohne Therapie fast weinen muss. Und Jane sich überlegt, selber auf's Land zu ziehen. Aber bis das passiert aktiviert sie das kindliche Ich, das erwachsene Ich und das Selbst, hält diesen Fiebertraum von Podcast souverän, ehrenamtlich und freiwillig zusammen wie die Feuerwehr, stark.

Diana and Susan meet in person and unpack Disney's new live-action Snow White. They compare it to the animated classic, talk through the movie's biggest changes, and debate when remakes should honor nostalgia vs. reflect today's values. You'll hear thoughts on Snow's independence, the Prince “pauper” twist, the Dopey moment, the Evil Queen casting, and why certain iconic scenes were left out. It's an honest, funny conversation about what worked, what didn't, and what Disney should do next.00:00 Welcome back, recording in person, quick catch-up02:00 First reactions to the movie and why Sarah sat this one out05:00 Early beats and familiar vibes: Beauty and the Beast, Cinderella, Aladdin parallels08:30 Prince as pauper: empathy, morality, and the “Robin Hood/Flynn Rider” energy12:00 The seven dwarfs debate and how the film approached representation15:30 Dopey speaks: character growth vs. losing that classic charm19:00 Making Snow White more complex and independent without the “housecleaning” scene23:30 Nostalgia vs. updates: what to keep, what to change, and what to create new28:30 Homages that remain: the Huntsman, the mirror, and the “fairest of them all” throughline33:00 Music talk: new songs, “Waiting on a Wish,” and which live-action soundtracks land36:00 Recasting the Evil Queen and the case for Emma Stone40:00 Final thoughts: what this remake gets right and where Disney should go from hereThe movie gives Snow White clearer agency and a defined point of view, which modernizes her character without fully rewriting the core.Turning the Prince into a pauper adds empathy and aligns his morality with Snow's, even if it echoes other Disney archetypes.Letting Dopey speak is a bold swing that some will read as growth and others as losing an iconic silent charm.Removing the housecleaning sequence aims to avoid dated gender roles, but it also trims a beloved bit of texture.The film nods to the original with the mirror and the Huntsman while expanding backstory around Snow's parents and the Queen's motives.Biggest miss: the Evil Queen performance never fully sells “menacing,” which drags on key scenes.The larger question isn't “Should we remake?” but “When do we preserve nostalgia and when do we create something new?”“Disney is embracing bad bitches. Prince Charming is an addition, not a requirement.”“If it's not broke, don't fix it. Or better yet, make a new story that fits today.”“When Snow stands up, that's when the mirror finally sees why she's the fairest.”“Dopey talking breaks the mold for some and breaks the magic for others.”“I'd keep Snow White's casting and swap the Evil Queen. Give me Emma Stone in that headpiece.”If you enjoyed this episode, follow the show, leave a quick review, and share it with a friend using #DisneyMomsGoneWrong.

In the sixty-first episode of Making Mt. Rushmore, host/moderator Steve Riddle welcomes James Gruenberg, Andy Atherton, and Mirandia Berthhold to discuss which Disney Animated Films deserve a place on their respective lists. Is the Lion King a no-brainer? What about Aladdin? Does the Princess and the Frog grab a spot? Does Beauty and the Beast and Peter Pan deserve a place? After that, they discuss which Pixar Films will be part of that grouping. Can you argue that Toy Story shouldn't get a spot? Will WALL-E be included? Is Finding Nemo in the conversation? What about Up or A Bug's Life?
On this episode of Remy's Roundtable: The Florida Theme Park Podcast, your hosts Remy, Mike, and Nicole gather around the roundtable to bring you another exciting mix of theme park news, nostalgic Disney deep-dives, foodie finds, and nerdy coaster science!The Latest Theme Park UpdatesRemy kicks off the episode by covering the newest big announcement out of SeaWorld Orlando-SeaQuest: Legacy of the Deep, a thrilling new attraction set to make waves when it opens in 2026. The team unpacks what we know so far about this experience, speculates on the ride system, and discusses how it could reshape SeaWorld's growing lineup of attractions. Will it live up to fan expectations? We'll dive into all the details.The crew then debates which Disney animated films deserve another look. Should we revisit them for their groundbreaking animation styles? Or are they ripe for the live-action treatment like we've seen with The Lion King, Aladdin, and The Little Mermaid? From underrated gems like Treasure Planet and The Black Cauldron to emotional favorites like Brother Bear and Meet the Robinsons, we explore the stories that could shine again on the big screen.Ride of the Week – Carousel of ProgressRemy brings his spotlight to a true Disney classic: Walt Disney's Carousel of Progress at Magic Kingdom. We dive into the history of this attraction, which debuted at the 1964 New York World's Fair before finding its home in Tomorrowland. The team discusses Imagineering details, fun facts, and even the shocking number it cost to build back in the 1960s. Plus, we share why this timeless show remains such an important piece of Disney history.
In the final chapter of our Disney Trilogy, we step into the glory days — the Renaissance era that gave us The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, The Lion King, and more. It was a decade of unforgettable music, groundbreaking animation, and cultural dominance that made Disney feel unstoppable. But what happens when a studio (or any empire) grows too big for its own good? From direct-to-video sequels to mega-franchise acquisitions, we explore how Disney's growth brought both triumph and trouble — and what that teaches us about pride, purpose, and faith. Join us as we celebrate Disney's brightest moments, reflect on the dangers of bigness without depth, and connect it all back to the biblical call to faithfulness over fame.

It is a privilege to welcome Max Bartos and Chelsea Turbin as guests for a special edition of The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast. On Sunday, September 21, Max (from Sing Street) and Chelsea (from Off-Broadway's Little Shop of Horrors) will join an all-star lineup of performers at the New York City-based 54 Below to celebrate the 21st anniversary of Green Day's iconic album, American Idiot, and its subsequent Broadway musical. Max co-produced this tribute concert with director/producer Laura Pietropinto and actor Matt DeAngelis. The two explosive shows mark over two decades since the band released the Grammy and American Music Award-winning album, and a decade since the curtain fell on its musical counterpart. With music supervision from Moulin Rouge and SpongeBob SquarePants alum Julie McBride and music direction by Sean Pallatroni, the shows will offer unforgettable performances of classic tracks, storytelling moments, and a nostalgic journey through the themes of rebellion, hope, and the quest for identity that American Idiot so brilliantly encapsulates. In addition to Max, Matt, and Chelsea, there is Tony Award-nominated and Green Day superfan Derek Klena; Van Hughes, a member of the Original Broadway Cast and the first national tour who starred opposite Billie Joe Armstrong; and other American Idiot Broadway and tour alumni, including Gerard Canonico, Nicci Claspell, Francesca Granell, Carson Higgins, Brian Charles Johnson, Brandon Kalm, and Johnny Newcomb. Broadway standouts such as J. Antonio Rodriguez (Hadestown), Taylor Iman Jones (Six), Teddy Grey (The British Invasion), Dillion Klena (Jagged Little Pill national tour), and Trent Saunders (Disney's Aladdin, Hadestown, and Dead Outlaw) are also involved. On this special edition of Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, Max Bartos and Chelsea Turbin preview the 54 Below celebration, the first time they heard Green Day's American Idiot, and share their most memorable moments from participating in the regional and touring productions.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/jake-s-take-with-jacob-elyachar--4112003/support.

During this time, he produced acclaimed projects including "SPRINTER" (ABFF winner, African Academy Award nominee), "HALA" (Sundance and TIFF selection), Disney's "ALADDIN," and Netflix's "AMEND." At Monkeypaw Productions, Watson continued championing diverse voices through projects like the "SCARE TACTICS" reboot and upcoming film "HIM", which opens in theaters on September 19th. He also launched a music label imprint with Interscope Records, expanding his influence across entertainment sectors.

When two podcasts collide, the conversation gets wild — and that's exactly what happened when Mike Abrams of The Wrong Cat Died joined me for this crossover episode with actor Ian Knauer. We cover Ian's journey through Broadway, the West End, regional theater, and even his time performing on Disney Cruise Line. Along the way, Ian shares the perseverance it took to finally land Cats after years of auditioning, what it was like stepping into the role of Jafar at sea, and how those experiences shaped his career both onstage and off. Of course, with Mike in the room, we couldn't resist diving headfirst into the eternal Cats debate — was Grizabella really the right choice, or did the wrong cat die? Ian makes a compelling case for Old Deuteronomy, and things only get livelier from there. From cruise ship lore to Broadway memories to a game of “Did the Wrong Cat Die?” reimagined with iconic stage and screen deaths, this episode is equal parts thoughtful and hilarious. Ian Knauer's career spans Broadway (Anastasia), the West End (Dirty Rotten Scoundrels), national tours, regional theater (Cats, White Christmas), and concert and film appearances. A University of Michigan graduate, he has also performed with Disney Cruise Line as a Broadway guest artist, where he delighted audiences as Jafar in Aladdin and beyond.

I've covered digital and practical effects in film and TV, but creating special effects for live theater is a whole other challenge. J&M Special Effects has been up to the task for 40 years. Their crew has worked on shows from Hadestown to Harry Potter and The Cursed Child to Disney musicals like Frozen and Aladdin. I get a behind-the-scenes tour of their Brooklyn warehouse, where failure is part of the process in figuring out how to make the magic work. I talk with partner and designer Jeremy Chernick, along with pyrotechnician Bohdan Bushnell, about how theatrical effects have evolved with new technology -- and why they can sometimes be too good at their jobs in making the impossible seem possible.

The Book of Travels Ḥannā Diyāb: A Conversation with Johannes StephanThe Book of Travels is Ḥannā Diyāb's remarkable first-person account of his travels as a young man from his hometown of Aleppo to the court of Versailles and back again, which forever linked him to one of the most popular pieces of world literature, the Thousand and One Nights.Diyāb, a Maronite Christian, served as a guide and interpreter for the French naturalist and antiquarian Paul Lucas. Between 1706 and 1716, Diyāb and Lucas traveled through Syria, Cyprus, Egypt, Tripolitania, Tunis, Italy, and France. In Paris, Ḥannā Diyāb met Antoine Galland, who added to his wildly popular translation of the Thousand and One Nights several tales related by Diyāb, including “Aladdin” and “Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves.” When Lucas failed to make good on his promise of a position for Diyāb at Louis XIV's Royal Library, Diyāb returned to Aleppo. In his old age, he wrote this engaging account of his youthful adventures, from capture by pirates in the Mediterranean to quack medicine and near-death experiences.Translated into English for the first time, The Book of Travels introduces readers to the young Syrian responsible for some of the most beloved stories from the Thousand and One Nights. Johannes Stephan is a postdoctoral researcher in the ERC-funded project Kalīlah and Dimnah—AnonymClassic at the Freie Universität Berlin. He studied Islamic and Middle Eastern Studies in Halle an der Saale, Damascus, and Bern. Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand.

Boomer tells us that he and Matt Martin took the kids to see Aladdin on Broadway but there were a lot of ‘mutants' walking around outside the theater.
In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I share one of the coolest pieces in my collection, an original 1925 signed set of The Book of Life by Robert Collier, and the magalogue (Magazine + Catalogue) ad that sold it. Robert Collier wasn't just an incredible author in the personal development world; he was also one of the best direct response advertisers of all time, selling more than $200 million worth of books through the mail in the 1920's! That's INSANE! I break down the ad that sold this book set and why the same framework still works today. From the way he used visualization and storytelling (think Aladdin's lamp and your own personal genie) to the powerful risk reversal and trial offer, this magalogue is a masterclass in how to sell with words. Key Highlights: How Collier's ad opened with a powerful hook and visualization to grab attention immediately The way he layered storytelling, case studies, and benefits before ever introducing the product How he transitioned into the offer and made the book set feel like a “genie in a lamp” that could fulfill the reader's deepest desires The risk reversal structure that made the offer irresistible (free trial, easy return, and low payments) Why the same hook–story–offer framework Collier used in print still applies to funnels, webinars, and sales letters today When you study ads like this, you see how much thought great marketers used to put into their offers. Collier couldn't just throw up a page and run Facebook ads… He had to make the message and the offer so good people would literally mail back a postcard with their own money.
