As the calendar flips to a brand-new year, Jim Hill and Lauren Hersey kick things off by looking ahead to what's shaping up to be a massive 2026 for Disney merch fans. From milestone anniversaries Disney rarely shouts about to a packed slate of films and park changes, this episode breaks down why collectors should start paying attention now. And later in the show, Jim dives deep into a Disney history lesson about a beautifully ambitious animated film that failed spectacularly - and how that misfire accidentally paved the way for one of Disney's most merch-friendly franchises ever.

Welcome to PTBN Pop's Movie Review of The Day! Every weekday we will be reviewing a movie whether it be currently in theaters, featured on streaming or just a film that we hold near and dear to us. On today's episode, Steve Riddle is reviewing “Zootopia 2” from 2025 starring Ginnifer Goodwin, Jason Bateman, Ke Huy Quan, Fortune Feimster & Andy Samberg.
In this episode, we share our honest reactions and thoughts on Zootopia 2, breaking it down from both an entertainment perspective and through the lens of reptile keepers. We talk about what the movie gets right, what made us pause, and how films like this can influence public perception of animals and the hobby.Then we reflect back on our 2025 vision boards—what actually happened, what surprised us, what didn't pan out, and how our goals shifted throughout the year.To wrap things up, we react to some niche (and sometimes unhinged) 2026 New Year's resolutions, sharing our takes on which ones are realistic, which ones we secretly love, and which ones might be setting people up for chaos.Get early access to episodes: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-wild-type-podcast/subscribeFollow the podcast: - https://www.instagram.com/thewildtypepodcast/- https://www.tiktok.com/@thewildtypepodcast- Merch: https://the-wild-type-podcast-llc-shop.fourthwall.com/Follow Neptune the Chameleon:- https://www.youtube.com/c/NeptunetheChameleon/- http://instagram.com/neptunethechameleon- https://tiktok.com/@neptunethechameleon- http://facebook.com/neptunethechameleon- https://www.neptunethechameleon.comFollow Lyssa's Lizards:- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmZaN6Q4yOt1j36J0-Ml6LQ- https://www.instagram.com/lyssaslizards- https://www.tiktok.com/@lyssaslizards- https://m.facebook.com/p/Lyssas-Lizards-100064470381677/- https://www.lyssaslizards.comSponsors:- https://www.pangeareptile.com/wildtype- https://coldbloodedcaffeine.com/- https://symtonbsf.com/- https://reptilekages.com/

Is a secret 9th episode of Stranger Things Season 5 dropping on January 7th? We dive deep into the viral Conformity Gate fan theory that's blowing up everywhere – the idea that the "happy" finale was actually a Vecna-induced illusion, full of hidden Easter eggs like creepy hand poses, D&D book codes spelling lies, and forced "conformity" in the epilogue. Fans are convinced a real, darker ending is coming soon... but is it legit or just wishful thinking?Plus, more hot pop culture news:Avatar: Fire and Ash crosses $1 billion globally, while Zootopia 2 smashes records with massive hauls in China and overseas! Full breakdown of the 2026 Critics Choice Awards winners, including Best Picture for One Battle After Another, Timothée Chalamet taking Best Actor, and big sweeps in TV for shows like The Pitt and Adolescence.

Happy New Year from all of us here at BWN! This week, we bring you another wild visit to the Trailer Park as we take a look at trailers for the Chevy Chase documentary, a reboot (of sorts) for The Muppet Show, and, wait....PC Tunney recommended a horror film? Apparently so, as we take a look at the trailer for Primate. Of course, the MCU headlines the Trailer Park this week as the Nerds discuss the latest Thor-based Avengers: Doomsday trailer, as well as the official trailer for Wonder Man. How do these two seemingly unrelated trailers fit into the broader scope of the MCU, and what, exactly, does Dr. Doom want with all these kids? In News Around the Nerdosphere, we look at the mammoth success of Zootopia 2, and ponder whether the equally huge success of Stranger Things might cause Netflix to rethink its stance of making movies for the cinema. The Main Event of the show, however, has the Nerds discussing the best of 2025 in the Nerdosphere. Who did we think were our best actors/actresses of the year? What were the best movies and shows? And what were the biggest stories in Nerdom this past year?

Sean and Amanda have an action-packed show today where they cover three new releases. Before diving in, they react to the recent trailers for ‘The Odyssey' and ‘Avengers: Doomsday' and quickly discuss ‘Zootopia 2' and ‘Avatar: Fire and Ash' (1:38). Then, they discuss Paul Feig's ‘The Housemaid,' starring Sydney Sweeney and Amanda Seyfried, which they found disappointing and prompts a discussion about what type of movies are being made for women in 2025 (9:09).

Finally, they briefly touch on ‘Song Sung Blue,' a musical drama about a Neil Diamond tribute band starring Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson (50:00), before director Craig Brewer joins Sean to break down how his filmmaking career started, explain why music plays such a profound role in his work, and tell a fascinating story about the lengthy process behind casting Hudson (1:01:35).
