**Mt. Molehill**

Hosts Scout Young & Penny Parker take on the task of watching the expansive catalogue of Disney Channel Original Movies in order to theorize about the grander ideas hiding beyond the intention of even the filmmakers themselves. Nothing is off the table, and no hill is too short to be scaled.

Episode 4: "Halloweentown" aka Wisdom in Wavering Faith Oct 30, 2024

Show notes

WASTREL YOUTH OF 4 YEARS BELATED, LET YOUR SPIRITS BE ELATED!

We're back! In this COLOSSAL reunion episode, we tackle 1998's "Halloweentown", a beloved DCOM that would have you believe a simple tale about a romp in the fun and fantastical titular world to save the day from evil. Instead, to equal delight and dismay, we find possibly the most detailed, harrowing, and shockingly compatible theories yet featured on the show. Strap in, folks.

Episode 2: "Brink!" aka The Iron Curtain Simulation Oct 12, 2020

Show notes

When you woke up this morning did you say to yourself, "Today I'm gonna TALK" or "Today I'm gonna listen to episode 2 of Mt. Molehill, in which we will discuss the 1998's Brink!, a sports film about a young inline skater. There was a bit of a struggle this week, as well as another allegorical finding of monumental proportion. Despite uncertainty, we believe we've yet again discovered a hidden truth"?

Pilot: "The Thirteenth Year" aka The Savior and His Inescapable Fate Oct 01, 2020

Show notes

In this first ever climb up Mt. Molehill we take on the job of analyzing 1999's The Thirteenth Year, a film about newly 13-year-old Cody Griffin and his mysterious transformation into a hideous wild animal of the sea. Beyond the text we find traces of a harrowing philosophy, as well as its potential connection to a rather famous theological narrative.
