Speaker 1 (00:14):
Hey, everybody, welcome back to Magical Rewind.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
We've got a very very special episode for you because
two years of Magical Rewind. Yes, folks, we've been doing
this for two years. We started when I was only
twenty one years old. Unbelievable. We've hit quite the anniversary, Sabrina,
as in this recording.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
How many decoms do you think we've recapped?
Speaker 3 (00:35):
Oh gosh, how many? Let's see. I feel like we've
gotten close to least sixty seventy you think more.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
We're approaching one hundred. Oh my gosh, oh, we are
approaching one hundred movie recaps. Can you believe that?
Speaker 2 (00:57):
I can't and you won't believe this, But we still
have a lot to go. Yes, Disney General original movies
really are the gift that keeps on giving. Or you know,
some of them are just taking up ninety eight to
ninety nine minutes of our lives.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
Those are the ones that they've gone too long. It's happened.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
But we wanted to do something a little bit special
for our anniversary. Thought as we close out another calendar
year of the show, it would be fun to look
back on the past and tests our own memories of
what we've seen boy. Yikes, can we even recall what
we liked or hated in a movie? We know that
we've caught some I think the kids call it ish.
That's just misspelled, because we call it that we've.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Caught from some of the films that we've done. So
here we go.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
This seems very terrifying for me. I have trouble remembering
my wife's name.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
It's Susan, I thinks, So, what are your thoughts going
into this?
Speaker 3 (01:49):
I'm worried. I think will be good on the ones
we really loved, the ones we really hate, but a
mass majority of those in between, the ones we are
gonna have such a hard time figuring out.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Here's the thing.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
I so, I was obviously told we were gonna be
doing this, but I did not want to look at
the movies we were gonna beat.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
I didn't want to.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
I didn't cheat, I didn't look at the list. I
truly have no idea what's coming. I will say this.
I made a realization as I was thinking about this.
People are always like, you know, I'll see in the comments.
How could you give I'm making up something? How could
you give Brink a six when you gave Double Team
to whatever. I don't ever compare one movie to another movie.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
No, well, I try not to.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
Yeah, I literally don't.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
I just I watched the movie, and I give it
whatever score I have in my head. I've forgotten the
last movie we did. I'm not trying to compare it
to anything else. So I never think to myself, like, well,
I gave this one a seven, so I better give
this one.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
I never that I watched the movie and I just
give it a number.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
I think the only time to like that makes sense
is when we're doing like a sequel, when we're doing
like the Zombies, you know, when we started getting into
the three and then the four, or you know, how
is it gonna change, what's gonna make this one pop?
That kind of stuff is the only time really where
it's almost impossible to not compare, because you're talking about
(03:10):
pretty much the same act you know, the same actors,
same same thing. So other than that, yeah, I think
when you're even when you're discussing musicals a music high
school musical versus the Descendants versus the Cheetah Girls, those
are versus Beat, uh.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
You know, Team Beat.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Yeah, it's like they're all so different you can't compare
and oranges.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
I agree.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
All right, so here we go. We're gonna jump right
into this, but here's the best. Let's start easy, okay.
So what's, in your opinion the best movie we've seen
so far?
Speaker 4 (03:40):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (03:43):
The best?
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Yep?
Speaker 3 (03:45):
Hm, oh my gosh. I mean I think the ones
that were a little bit more heartfelt, pulling at your strings, right,
you know, Color of Friendship.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Oh you can't list two or three? What's your favorite
movie so far?
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (04:06):
Boy, see, this is gonna be so hard.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
I don't.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
I can't think of the one that I'm wanting to
think of.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
All right, I'll jump in next. I think I have mine.
I think it's still Miracle on Lane two. I thought
was I still thought was that it was just such
a good movie.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
Honestly. Okay, So heartfelt is different than where I'm going
for than on this one. If yours is Miracle on Lane,
then I'm gonna go. I'm honestly gonna go with that
first Descendants movie. That one knocks me off my seat there,
it really did.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
It was great. It was that number where they're running
through the.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
Very very good that talk about a catchy song that
sticks with you. Now I'm freaking gonna think about it
all day.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
Yeah, No, that's a good that's a good guest that one.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
I mean, it just was so creative.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
And so the first zombies movie in the in the
category of what's going on, I mean, there have been
some pretty.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Great ones, all right, So all right, let's get into this.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
We'll get the title of a movie that we've seen
and we have to guess what we rated it numerically.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Are you ready? Yeah, all right, So let's kick it
off with The Cheetah Girls.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
Oh great, Thank You.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Was our first movie. So in case, in case, Sabrita,
you forgot what this movie is about. It is a
four member team girl group named the Cheetah Girls go
to a Manhattan high school for the performing arts and
try to become the first freshman to win the talent show.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
In the school's history.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
We ranked it, of course, on a scale of one
to ten. Trapped be shown freeze as.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
So gona be So I'm glad we get what we
rated them.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
What what did what did we give it?
Speaker 3 (05:52):
I'm probably still I mean, I probably gave it like
an eight.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
See that's what I think. That's a number of popped
in my head. I think I gave it an eight
B show freezs are close to it?
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Eight be trapped?
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Is somebody gonna tell us if we're right by the way.
Speaker 4 (06:05):
Okay, thank god, I actually have what you said as well.
So will you gave it an eight point five?
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Okay?
Speaker 4 (06:11):
You like this movie? Great Disney Channel movie, Lost me
with the dog at the end, you're kind of way
to get the band back together. And Sabrina said, I
love the movie more than I thought I would. I
thought I was gonna give it a four point five.
I gave it a seven, bashing her own film.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
All right, I love it. It's literally your movie.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Okay, So rewatching the trap Dog was goose pretty it was.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
It was a little much. Sure, it was a little much.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
And someone just brought it up seeing them. I think
it was when we were at the Disneyland together. Someone
brought up and said, oh no, it was a jingle
ball and it was. And they said, oh gosh, I
wish I had my dog around here so I could
get it trapped, so we could sing it out of sea.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Here you go, uh yeah, you drop my score because
of the dog, all right. Number two The Luck of
the Irish When Kyle loses his golden pot of gold charm.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
He discovers that he's actually part leprechaun and must find
the thief before he takes control of all the other leprechauns.
It is starring Ryan Merriman and Henry Gibson. We ranked
it on the scale of one out of ten. Potato
Chip security Guards, So, d what did you think you
gave this movie?
Speaker 3 (07:29):
This one is so well known, and I remember having
some really good comedy moments, some weird moments. So yep,
there were a lot of weird things. But I just
remember her being little in the in that car was
so funny.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
But I also remember him like them finally telling him
he was Irish, like it was the worst thing in
the world, like where we're irish.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
I bet you I was in the seven range. I
probably was like a seven point five.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
I think I did a I'm gonna say I said
between six and I'm gonna say seven.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Potato Chip security guards.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
Security guards, and this is why we're doing this game.
Will you gave it a five? He said, your favorite.
He could have given it a six, but the song
at the end pulled it down.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Oh my god, I forgot this, that's right with the
weird dancing. Okay, yeah, it was a six.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
Said five point five quote it ended terribly.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Wow. Okay, so this is why.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Fives gotcha all right? Number three Andy brink Brinker. God
was that really his name? A passionate inline skater face.
I'm gonna buy I'm on market even lower than I
had before. Andy brink Brinker, a passionate inline skater, faces
a dilemma when his family's finances crumble and they must
(08:56):
secretly join a rival sponsored team for money. This recap
is still filled with controversy. What did we rate it
on a scale of It was a one to ten
unfastened helmets, So I'll.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
Go for time.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
I know I gave this a good one.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
I did not.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
I still stand by what I said. I'm going to
say it was like a five to five. I think
I did like a five, five to five or six
at the most?
Speaker 1 (09:20):
Oh about you?
Speaker 3 (09:22):
So incorrect? Will it is not?
Speaker 1 (09:24):
I still it?
Speaker 3 (09:25):
I bet you I gave this like an eight point five.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
You guys are pretty spot on. Will you gave it
a five? You said you didn't like it, but Gabriella
made it awesome. Sabrina gave it an eight and said
I loved it, And when I rewatched it, I saw
all the reasons why I loved it.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
There you go.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
That's a good one. Good job.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Save nice number four Lemonade Mouth.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
Oh the synopsis when five ragtag freshmen first meeting Detention
and just are hanging on you. It seems that they
have nothing in common, but through music they form an
unbreakable bond and discover they have the makings of the
greatest high school garage band in history. Starring Bridget Mendler,
Haley Kyoko, and Adam Hicks. Do you remember what we
scored this on a one to ten and it was
(10:15):
one to ten? Lemonade Shots?
Speaker 1 (10:18):
Your turn? What did you get me?
Speaker 3 (10:19):
That was lemonade shots? Was there like mockup of the
soda care?
Speaker 1 (10:24):
I think so? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (10:25):
Okay, oh this was a middle man for me.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
I think it was for me too.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
Remember because they started like banging and then they just
started there's no practice.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
There was a lot I didn't like.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
I said, well, it just said this is They had
done a better version of this already, which was the
high school Rock Band or whatever that one was called
that I liked so much.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
Yeah, I want to say, I probably gave this like
a six point five.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
I think I went lower than that. I'm gonna say
I gave it six lemonade shots.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
Oh well, you both are wrong. Will you gave it
a seven point five? He said? I liked it, I
really liked music. The cast was phenomenal. Would have been
an eight point five to nine had they just shown
them unsal.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Okay, okay, I know that.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
Like Brina, you gave it an eight point five, and
you said the music drove this movie and the acting
was great. I loved it.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
Okay, wow, good, I'm glad that I remember giving it
a worse score than that.
Speaker 3 (11:23):
Okay, good, I know that's crazy.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Ooh, and now we come to a big one, Folks.
Number five. Johnny Tsunami synopsis.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
Johnny Cappahala, a teen surfing sensation, is forced to move
from Hawaii to a tiny ski resort town in Vermont,
and when he gets caught in the middle of a
long standing battle between local prep school skiers and ragtag snowboarders,
his grandfather helps him become the best on the mountain
and Brandon Baker's lead character, but never forget he is
not Johnny Tsunami that's right. He wasn't he was like
(11:50):
his grandfather is Johnny's right. Okay, we had a scale
of one to ten hijacked military planes for this one.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
Why don't I even remember what that?
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Don't you remember?
Speaker 2 (11:59):
They had to they literally like, hijacked a plane from
Hawaii get to get back to Hawaii. Yeah, yeah, oh
my gosh, yeah, somehow broke onto a military complex.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
I recall scoring this high. I liked Johnny Tsunami.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
I still love it.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
I'm gonna say I gave this an eight point five
hijacked military planes.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
If not a nine, I bet you I gave this
a nine. All right.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
So Sabrina gave this a nine and she said, I
love the movie back in the day and I love
watching it again. Will you gave it an eight? And
you just said I really like this movie.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
Okay, there you go. I was we were close. Not
too bad.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Number six this movie. I remember this movie. I remember
liking this movie.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Minute men. Yes. Synopsis.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Senior Virgil and his buddies invent the ultimate time machine,
traveling back in time just far enough to alter conversations,
events and interactions that led them to being unpopular at school.
It stars, of course, Sir Jason Dolly with the eventual
succession star Nicholas Braun.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
Do you remember this one, Sabrina.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
I remember the whites like suits.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
Snowsuits and jumping in the thing.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
We rated on a scale of one to ten principles
from community.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
That doesn't help me at all. I try to think
of I remember, Jason, you got it, you go first.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
I'm gonna say I gave this a eight, okay, because
I remember liking this movie. I do remember this cast
was great, we loved him. There was a couple problems
with it. But I think I'm going to say seven
point five to eight principles from community. I gave this
I liked him in a man memory serves.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
I think I remember liking it as well, but I
honestly can't remember. All I remember is those like space
looking suits. That's it, the white version of the Eaty
Go Home suits with what'd you give it? I remember
liking it. I'll go with seven point five safe all right,
Well you both gave it a six.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Oh well, you.
Speaker 4 (13:57):
Said I had some issues with this movie. Love the cast,
but hate it's some of the characters. Sabrina said, it
wasn't horrible, love the actors had some plot holes.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Okay, God, we got to remember some of these movies,
but we knew it.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
This isn't that between six.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
I know it's the middle ones. It's the middle one
number seven.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
So we're gonna get into a little a little farm
dcom called cow Bells. Synopsis super spoiled rich girls Taylor
and Courtney Callum are forced to take summer jobs at
the family's dairy farm and struggle to balance the pressures
of popularity, cute boys, and the pain of responsibility.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
Starring the Great.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Ali and Aj Mishatka. We scored this one on a
scale of one to ten. Expired yogurts. Do you remember
why we picked expired yogurts? Do you remember the story?
She was like she was marking them wrong, wasn't she?
So it was like, oh, yes, yeah, what was your
guest for the score? Now here's I have to give
(14:50):
give our beautiful listeners a little inside information on why
we're even doing this because producer Tara Lovely, thank you
so much for helping us, told us that when Ali
and Aj came on, they asked us what we scored Cowbells,
and we were like, oh, we liked cowbells. We scored
it high, and then the guitar was like, no you
didn't and no you didn't. So I think that's one
(15:13):
of the reasons we're doing this. I think we scored
it lower than we told them we did. Sorry, Ali
and aj you guys are the best in the world,
But I guess we scored it a little lower than
we told you we did. So I'm going to say
we're in the five or six range.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
I remember there being a lot of like like plot
hole type things. It was more so there were gaps
and there's things that didn't make sense. They Yeah, it
was very much like Fielball moment I loved in the Factory.
That stands out to me.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
And this is just Stu Kreeger script. But this was
one that I don't think we liked very much. I'm
going to say it's between five and six expired yogurts.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
Yeah, I want to say I probably this was probably
a six for me.
Speaker 4 (15:57):
Okay, so will Well you gave it four point five.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
Oh, you said.
Speaker 4 (16:03):
Too much wrong with the story, too weird for me,
but great actors. Okay, Brina, you gave it a six.
You said I need a little bit more but those
girls were so beyond talented.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
Okay, there we go, so we love them. Yeah four
point five, that might have been harsh.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
I gotta watch it again. Yeah all right, and now
we are now going to slam dunk on synopsis.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
Twin freshman basketball start started.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Twin freshman basketball stars.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
Heather, who's a diehard athlete and Heidi, whose real love
is fashion, transfer to a Pasha La High school where
they're thirty five years old, surrounded by eight year olds
and now must contend with teammates who consider them outsiders,
their own budding rivalry, and their father's dreams of obtaining
college scholarships. We've got Poppy and Roe as Heather Burge
and Annie mccleughan as Heidi Burge, plus Mackenzie Phillips played
their mom, and we spoke to the actual women this
(17:01):
movie was based on.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
We rated the System one out of ten Triple d's.
I don't even want to know why the hell I
don't know. I'm sure it made sense when we did it.
What did we decide? Now?
Speaker 2 (17:13):
This is one I catch a lot for and stand
by it. All of our producers were like, you are crazy.
Double Teamed is better than the Godfather Too is the
greatest film that's ever been made in the history of
the world, and it's just not I think I was
somewhere around the four to five range, and I stand
by that score.
Speaker 3 (17:34):
Yeah, mainly because the biggest thing that we had an
issue with is they were playing them as identical twins
when they were.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
Two in their playing playing high school kids.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
It was like, there's so many things. There was a
lot of problems with this film. Oh gosh, I I
know I wasn't as low as you.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
No.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
I think I probably again was like a six.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
Okay, all right, so will you to five point five
than quote was quote? This was not a great movie?
Speaker 1 (18:11):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (18:13):
Serna was a six and she said not a great movie.
This didn't do it for me, though I remember loving
it at the time. Now I want Disney to make
it again.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
There we go.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
I can see that it should be with the Jonas
brothers playing identical twins. I think it's great, all right,
And now we come to we have two Left, arguably
the greatest film we've ever reviewed in any way, shape
or form. Number nine fuzz Bucket synopsis Invisible to everyone
but twelve year old Mikey Fuzzbucket is a wise and
(18:44):
caring creature who helps the boy through his first day
of junior high and a handful of family squabbles. We
spoke to Robin Lively about being in this movie, even
if she didn't really want to, and we scored it
on a scale of one to ten tickle fits.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
What were our scores? I can't remember if I scored
this high as a joke.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
I mean, obviously it's We started with the one that
had Mike Eisner's opening, which we heard took like seventy
five takes to.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Do, yes, and the movie is it's just.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
An acid trip. I mean it's like you're on ayahuasca.
I mean it's just the craziest, weirdest And.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Then we come to find out a lot of that
makes sense because and then also there was no closing
to the movie.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Really no, it was supposed to be a pilot.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
It was supposed to be a pilot, so very open
and forty five minutes it was so like we thought,
Remember we both were searching because we thought there was
a part two we couldn't find.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Yeah, it's got to be it's got to be three
to four tickle fits, right.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
Yeah, Yeah, I would think it. Mine would be five.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
Okay, four point five? Four, I'll go with four tickle fits?
Speaker 2 (19:50):
What do we got?
Speaker 4 (19:51):
Tara oh Man, all right, so will you gave it
three point five? Okay, there is no story, it's bad.
And Sabrina you to two point five? Oh my gosh,
she said there were no answers to anything.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
Yes, a two point five.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
By the way, getting a chance to hang out with
Robin Lively during the Disneyland, going around the park with
her and her kids, and oh.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
My god, did you did you turn to her and
say we gave you two point five tickle fits?
Speaker 4 (20:21):
No?
Speaker 3 (20:21):
I didn't know.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
During the riot.
Speaker 3 (20:23):
I didn't bring up fuzzbucket again, just the one time
that you did, and I thought that was enough for her.
She didn't seem to be too.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
No, no, she's not.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
And finally, our last film, number ten quints synopsisays young
Jamie Grover is fed up with being the center of
her parents' universe, so when she wishes for less attention
and her mom gives birth to quintuplets, things drastically changed.
We hated this one on the scale of one to ten.
Don knots cameos. I'm assuming it's because don Knats was
(20:53):
in it. I don't remember, Uh what did we actually
rank quints?
Speaker 1 (20:57):
If memory serves, we didn't love this.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
Movie, and she is awesome. She was great, though. I
remember the whole time, we're thinking like, because she did
a lot. Remember this was the one where she broke
the fourth wall quite a bit. Yeah, and we were like,
she did it really well. It wasn't weird. It was good,
but the.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
Parents are really bad.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
And then there was a whole thing at the end
where they just like jumped into a car or something.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
It was really.
Speaker 3 (21:20):
Strange, strange, strange writing. I guess maybe you're just strange.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
Yeah, I'm going to say I gave it five don
Knots cameos, and I can't even remember if don.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Knots was in it.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
I think I did six don Knots cameos.
Speaker 4 (21:37):
You both gave it five point five? Okay, Will said Kimberly,
save this movie because she was so good. These parents
were such bad parents, said Kimberly, was great. It was
so confusing. I didn't like the freeze frames.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Yes, that's right, the freeze frames. Yes, okay, well that
was fun.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
By the way, I don't want to ask anybody out
there to rate Magical Rewine on a scale of one
to ten. I don't want to know. I don't want
to know. But this was a ton of fun. I
think we did better than I thought we would. Frankly,
there's only one or two we were horribly off on. Yeah,
and since we're approaching a hundred movies, that's not too bad.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
No, that's a lot.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
So I think that's good. That's a lot of movies,
and I think we should do it again to keep
us in check.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
So thank you everybody for joining us on this little
sojourney of trying to figure out what our memories are
like and what's going on and all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
It was fun and we're going to do it again.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
And remember you can follow us on social media at
Magical rewind pod and use the holiday break to catch
up on all our interviews over the past two years
and almost one hundred dcom recaps. We have spoken to
some like truly some Disney legends. You don't believe us,
Why would we lie? Well we would, but not about this.
Just search for Magical Rewind on any audio streaming service
(22:49):
and check it out. So we're going to see you
next time next year, starting again, we're gonna have some
great ones.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
And yeah, we're starting right with the Cheetah.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Girls going in with a bang people, hopefully, or it's
gonna suck. I guess we're gonna find out. Thanks everybody,
and we'll see you next time.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
Bye bye
Hey, everybody, welcome back to Magical Rewind.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
We've got a very very special episode for you because
two years of Magical Rewind. Yes, folks, we've been doing
this for two years. We started when I was only
twenty one years old. Unbelievable. We've hit quite the anniversary, Sabrina,
as in this recording.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
How many decoms do you think we've recapped?
Speaker 3 (00:35):
Oh gosh, how many? Let's see. I feel like we've
gotten close to least sixty seventy you think more.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
We're approaching one hundred. Oh my gosh, oh, we are
approaching one hundred movie recaps. Can you believe that?
Speaker 2 (00:57):
I can't and you won't believe this, But we still
have a lot to go. Yes, Disney General original movies
really are the gift that keeps on giving. Or you know,
some of them are just taking up ninety eight to
ninety nine minutes of our lives.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
Those are the ones that they've gone too long. It's happened.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
But we wanted to do something a little bit special
for our anniversary. Thought as we close out another calendar
year of the show, it would be fun to look
back on the past and tests our own memories of
what we've seen boy. Yikes, can we even recall what
we liked or hated in a movie? We know that
we've caught some I think the kids call it ish.
That's just misspelled, because we call it that we've.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Caught from some of the films that we've done. So
here we go.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
This seems very terrifying for me. I have trouble remembering
my wife's name.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
It's Susan, I thinks, So, what are your thoughts going
into this?
Speaker 3 (01:49):
I'm worried. I think will be good on the ones
we really loved, the ones we really hate, but a
mass majority of those in between, the ones we are
gonna have such a hard time figuring out.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Here's the thing.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
I so, I was obviously told we were gonna be
doing this, but I did not want to look at
the movies we were gonna beat.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
I didn't want to.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
I didn't cheat, I didn't look at the list. I
truly have no idea what's coming. I will say this.
I made a realization as I was thinking about this.
People are always like, you know, I'll see in the comments.
How could you give I'm making up something? How could
you give Brink a six when you gave Double Team
to whatever. I don't ever compare one movie to another movie.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
No, well, I try not to.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
Yeah, I literally don't.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
I just I watched the movie, and I give it
whatever score I have in my head. I've forgotten the
last movie we did. I'm not trying to compare it
to anything else. So I never think to myself, like, well,
I gave this one a seven, so I better give
this one.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
I never that I watched the movie and I just
give it a number.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
I think the only time to like that makes sense
is when we're doing like a sequel, when we're doing
like the Zombies, you know, when we started getting into
the three and then the four, or you know, how
is it gonna change, what's gonna make this one pop?
That kind of stuff is the only time really where
it's almost impossible to not compare, because you're talking about
(03:10):
pretty much the same act you know, the same actors,
same same thing. So other than that, yeah, I think
when you're even when you're discussing musicals a music high
school musical versus the Descendants versus the Cheetah Girls, those
are versus Beat, uh.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
You know, Team Beat.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Yeah, it's like they're all so different you can't compare
and oranges.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
I agree.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
All right, so here we go. We're gonna jump right
into this, but here's the best. Let's start easy, okay.
So what's, in your opinion the best movie we've seen
so far?
Speaker 4 (03:40):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (03:43):
The best?
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Yep?
Speaker 3 (03:45):
Hm, oh my gosh. I mean I think the ones
that were a little bit more heartfelt, pulling at your strings, right,
you know, Color of Friendship.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Oh you can't list two or three? What's your favorite
movie so far?
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (04:06):
Boy, see, this is gonna be so hard.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
I don't.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
I can't think of the one that I'm wanting to
think of.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
All right, I'll jump in next. I think I have mine.
I think it's still Miracle on Lane two. I thought
was I still thought was that it was just such
a good movie.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
Honestly. Okay, So heartfelt is different than where I'm going
for than on this one. If yours is Miracle on Lane,
then I'm gonna go. I'm honestly gonna go with that
first Descendants movie. That one knocks me off my seat there,
it really did.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
It was great. It was that number where they're running
through the.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
Very very good that talk about a catchy song that
sticks with you. Now I'm freaking gonna think about it
all day.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
Yeah, No, that's a good that's a good guest that one.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
I mean, it just was so creative.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
And so the first zombies movie in the in the
category of what's going on, I mean, there have been
some pretty.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Great ones, all right, So all right, let's get into this.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
We'll get the title of a movie that we've seen
and we have to guess what we rated it numerically.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Are you ready? Yeah, all right, So let's kick it
off with The Cheetah Girls.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
Oh great, Thank You.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Was our first movie. So in case, in case, Sabrita,
you forgot what this movie is about. It is a
four member team girl group named the Cheetah Girls go
to a Manhattan high school for the performing arts and
try to become the first freshman to win the talent show.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
In the school's history.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
We ranked it, of course, on a scale of one
to ten. Trapped be shown freeze as.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
So gona be So I'm glad we get what we
rated them.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
What what did what did we give it?
Speaker 3 (05:52):
I'm probably still I mean, I probably gave it like
an eight.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
See that's what I think. That's a number of popped
in my head. I think I gave it an eight
B show freezs are close to it?
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Eight be trapped?
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Is somebody gonna tell us if we're right by the way.
Speaker 4 (06:05):
Okay, thank god, I actually have what you said as well.
So will you gave it an eight point five?
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Okay?
Speaker 4 (06:11):
You like this movie? Great Disney Channel movie, Lost me
with the dog at the end, you're kind of way
to get the band back together. And Sabrina said, I
love the movie more than I thought I would. I
thought I was gonna give it a four point five.
I gave it a seven, bashing her own film.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
All right, I love it. It's literally your movie.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Okay, So rewatching the trap Dog was goose pretty it was.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
It was a little much. Sure, it was a little much.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
And someone just brought it up seeing them. I think
it was when we were at the Disneyland together. Someone
brought up and said, oh no, it was a jingle
ball and it was. And they said, oh gosh, I
wish I had my dog around here so I could
get it trapped, so we could sing it out of sea.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Here you go, uh yeah, you drop my score because
of the dog, all right. Number two The Luck of
the Irish When Kyle loses his golden pot of gold charm.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
He discovers that he's actually part leprechaun and must find
the thief before he takes control of all the other leprechauns.
It is starring Ryan Merriman and Henry Gibson. We ranked
it on the scale of one out of ten. Potato
Chip security Guards, So, d what did you think you
gave this movie?
Speaker 3 (07:29):
This one is so well known, and I remember having
some really good comedy moments, some weird moments. So yep,
there were a lot of weird things. But I just
remember her being little in the in that car was
so funny.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
But I also remember him like them finally telling him
he was Irish, like it was the worst thing in
the world, like where we're irish.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
I bet you I was in the seven range. I
probably was like a seven point five.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
I think I did a I'm gonna say I said
between six and I'm gonna say seven.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Potato Chip security guards.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
Security guards, and this is why we're doing this game.
Will you gave it a five? He said, your favorite.
He could have given it a six, but the song
at the end pulled it down.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Oh my god, I forgot this, that's right with the
weird dancing. Okay, yeah, it was a six.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
Said five point five quote it ended terribly.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Wow. Okay, so this is why.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Fives gotcha all right? Number three Andy brink Brinker. God
was that really his name? A passionate inline skater face.
I'm gonna buy I'm on market even lower than I
had before. Andy brink Brinker, a passionate inline skater, faces
a dilemma when his family's finances crumble and they must
(08:56):
secretly join a rival sponsored team for money. This recap
is still filled with controversy. What did we rate it
on a scale of It was a one to ten
unfastened helmets, So I'll.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
Go for time.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
I know I gave this a good one.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
I did not.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
I still stand by what I said. I'm going to
say it was like a five to five. I think
I did like a five, five to five or six
at the most?
Speaker 1 (09:20):
Oh about you?
Speaker 3 (09:22):
So incorrect? Will it is not?
Speaker 1 (09:24):
I still it?
Speaker 3 (09:25):
I bet you I gave this like an eight point five.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
You guys are pretty spot on. Will you gave it
a five? You said you didn't like it, but Gabriella
made it awesome. Sabrina gave it an eight and said
I loved it, And when I rewatched it, I saw
all the reasons why I loved it.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
There you go.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
That's a good one. Good job.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Save nice number four Lemonade Mouth.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
Oh the synopsis when five ragtag freshmen first meeting Detention
and just are hanging on you. It seems that they
have nothing in common, but through music they form an
unbreakable bond and discover they have the makings of the
greatest high school garage band in history. Starring Bridget Mendler,
Haley Kyoko, and Adam Hicks. Do you remember what we
scored this on a one to ten and it was
(10:15):
one to ten? Lemonade Shots?
Speaker 1 (10:18):
Your turn? What did you get me?
Speaker 3 (10:19):
That was lemonade shots? Was there like mockup of the
soda care?
Speaker 1 (10:24):
I think so? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (10:25):
Okay, oh this was a middle man for me.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
I think it was for me too.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
Remember because they started like banging and then they just
started there's no practice.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
There was a lot I didn't like.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
I said, well, it just said this is They had
done a better version of this already, which was the
high school Rock Band or whatever that one was called
that I liked so much.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
Yeah, I want to say, I probably gave this like
a six point five.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
I think I went lower than that. I'm gonna say
I gave it six lemonade shots.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
Oh well, you both are wrong. Will you gave it
a seven point five? He said? I liked it, I
really liked music. The cast was phenomenal. Would have been
an eight point five to nine had they just shown
them unsal.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Okay, okay, I know that.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
Like Brina, you gave it an eight point five, and
you said the music drove this movie and the acting
was great. I loved it.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
Okay, wow, good, I'm glad that I remember giving it
a worse score than that.
Speaker 3 (11:23):
Okay, good, I know that's crazy.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Ooh, and now we come to a big one, Folks.
Number five. Johnny Tsunami synopsis.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
Johnny Cappahala, a teen surfing sensation, is forced to move
from Hawaii to a tiny ski resort town in Vermont,
and when he gets caught in the middle of a
long standing battle between local prep school skiers and ragtag snowboarders,
his grandfather helps him become the best on the mountain
and Brandon Baker's lead character, but never forget he is
not Johnny Tsunami that's right. He wasn't he was like
(11:50):
his grandfather is Johnny's right. Okay, we had a scale
of one to ten hijacked military planes for this one.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
Why don't I even remember what that?
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Don't you remember?
Speaker 2 (11:59):
They had to they literally like, hijacked a plane from
Hawaii get to get back to Hawaii. Yeah, yeah, oh
my gosh, yeah, somehow broke onto a military complex.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
I recall scoring this high. I liked Johnny Tsunami.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
I still love it.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
I'm gonna say I gave this an eight point five
hijacked military planes.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
If not a nine, I bet you I gave this
a nine. All right.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
So Sabrina gave this a nine and she said, I
love the movie back in the day and I love
watching it again. Will you gave it an eight? And
you just said I really like this movie.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
Okay, there you go. I was we were close. Not
too bad.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Number six this movie. I remember this movie. I remember
liking this movie.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Minute men. Yes. Synopsis.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Senior Virgil and his buddies invent the ultimate time machine,
traveling back in time just far enough to alter conversations,
events and interactions that led them to being unpopular at school.
It stars, of course, Sir Jason Dolly with the eventual
succession star Nicholas Braun.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
Do you remember this one, Sabrina.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
I remember the whites like suits.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
Snowsuits and jumping in the thing.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
We rated on a scale of one to ten principles
from community.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
That doesn't help me at all. I try to think
of I remember, Jason, you got it, you go first.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
I'm gonna say I gave this a eight, okay, because
I remember liking this movie. I do remember this cast
was great, we loved him. There was a couple problems
with it. But I think I'm going to say seven
point five to eight principles from community. I gave this
I liked him in a man memory serves.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
I think I remember liking it as well, but I
honestly can't remember. All I remember is those like space
looking suits. That's it, the white version of the Eaty
Go Home suits with what'd you give it? I remember
liking it. I'll go with seven point five safe all right,
Well you both gave it a six.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Oh well, you.
Speaker 4 (13:57):
Said I had some issues with this movie. Love the cast,
but hate it's some of the characters. Sabrina said, it
wasn't horrible, love the actors had some plot holes.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Okay, God, we got to remember some of these movies,
but we knew it.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
This isn't that between six.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
I know it's the middle ones. It's the middle one
number seven.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
So we're gonna get into a little a little farm
dcom called cow Bells. Synopsis super spoiled rich girls Taylor
and Courtney Callum are forced to take summer jobs at
the family's dairy farm and struggle to balance the pressures
of popularity, cute boys, and the pain of responsibility.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
Starring the Great.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Ali and Aj Mishatka. We scored this one on a
scale of one to ten. Expired yogurts. Do you remember
why we picked expired yogurts? Do you remember the story?
She was like she was marking them wrong, wasn't she?
So it was like, oh, yes, yeah, what was your
guest for the score? Now here's I have to give
(14:50):
give our beautiful listeners a little inside information on why
we're even doing this because producer Tara Lovely, thank you
so much for helping us, told us that when Ali
and Aj came on, they asked us what we scored Cowbells,
and we were like, oh, we liked cowbells. We scored
it high, and then the guitar was like, no you
didn't and no you didn't. So I think that's one
(15:13):
of the reasons we're doing this. I think we scored
it lower than we told them we did. Sorry, Ali
and aj you guys are the best in the world,
But I guess we scored it a little lower than
we told you we did. So I'm going to say
we're in the five or six range.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
I remember there being a lot of like like plot
hole type things. It was more so there were gaps
and there's things that didn't make sense. They Yeah, it
was very much like Fielball moment I loved in the Factory.
That stands out to me.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
And this is just Stu Kreeger script. But this was
one that I don't think we liked very much. I'm
going to say it's between five and six expired yogurts.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
Yeah, I want to say I probably this was probably
a six for me.
Speaker 4 (15:57):
Okay, so will Well you gave it four point five.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
Oh, you said.
Speaker 4 (16:03):
Too much wrong with the story, too weird for me,
but great actors. Okay, Brina, you gave it a six.
You said I need a little bit more but those
girls were so beyond talented.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
Okay, there we go, so we love them. Yeah four
point five, that might have been harsh.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
I gotta watch it again. Yeah all right, and now
we are now going to slam dunk on synopsis.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
Twin freshman basketball start started.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Twin freshman basketball stars.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
Heather, who's a diehard athlete and Heidi, whose real love
is fashion, transfer to a Pasha La High school where
they're thirty five years old, surrounded by eight year olds
and now must contend with teammates who consider them outsiders,
their own budding rivalry, and their father's dreams of obtaining
college scholarships. We've got Poppy and Roe as Heather Burge
and Annie mccleughan as Heidi Burge, plus Mackenzie Phillips played
their mom, and we spoke to the actual women this
(17:01):
movie was based on.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
We rated the System one out of ten Triple d's.
I don't even want to know why the hell I
don't know. I'm sure it made sense when we did it.
What did we decide? Now?
Speaker 2 (17:13):
This is one I catch a lot for and stand
by it. All of our producers were like, you are crazy.
Double Teamed is better than the Godfather Too is the
greatest film that's ever been made in the history of
the world, and it's just not I think I was
somewhere around the four to five range, and I stand
by that score.
Speaker 3 (17:34):
Yeah, mainly because the biggest thing that we had an
issue with is they were playing them as identical twins
when they were.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
Two in their playing playing high school kids.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
It was like, there's so many things. There was a
lot of problems with this film. Oh gosh, I I
know I wasn't as low as you.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
No.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
I think I probably again was like a six.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
Okay, all right, so will you to five point five
than quote was quote? This was not a great movie?
Speaker 1 (18:11):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (18:13):
Serna was a six and she said not a great movie.
This didn't do it for me, though I remember loving
it at the time. Now I want Disney to make
it again.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
There we go.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
I can see that it should be with the Jonas
brothers playing identical twins. I think it's great, all right,
And now we come to we have two Left, arguably
the greatest film we've ever reviewed in any way, shape
or form. Number nine fuzz Bucket synopsis Invisible to everyone
but twelve year old Mikey Fuzzbucket is a wise and
(18:44):
caring creature who helps the boy through his first day
of junior high and a handful of family squabbles. We
spoke to Robin Lively about being in this movie, even
if she didn't really want to, and we scored it
on a scale of one to ten tickle fits.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
What were our scores? I can't remember if I scored
this high as a joke.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
I mean, obviously it's We started with the one that
had Mike Eisner's opening, which we heard took like seventy
five takes to.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Do, yes, and the movie is it's just.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
An acid trip. I mean it's like you're on ayahuasca.
I mean it's just the craziest, weirdest And.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Then we come to find out a lot of that
makes sense because and then also there was no closing
to the movie.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Really no, it was supposed to be a pilot.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
It was supposed to be a pilot, so very open
and forty five minutes it was so like we thought,
Remember we both were searching because we thought there was
a part two we couldn't find.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Yeah, it's got to be it's got to be three
to four tickle fits, right.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
Yeah, Yeah, I would think it. Mine would be five.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
Okay, four point five? Four, I'll go with four tickle fits?
Speaker 2 (19:50):
What do we got?
Speaker 4 (19:51):
Tara oh Man, all right, so will you gave it
three point five? Okay, there is no story, it's bad.
And Sabrina you to two point five? Oh my gosh,
she said there were no answers to anything.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
Yes, a two point five.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
By the way, getting a chance to hang out with
Robin Lively during the Disneyland, going around the park with
her and her kids, and oh.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
My god, did you did you turn to her and
say we gave you two point five tickle fits?
Speaker 4 (20:21):
No?
Speaker 3 (20:21):
I didn't know.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
During the riot.
Speaker 3 (20:23):
I didn't bring up fuzzbucket again, just the one time
that you did, and I thought that was enough for her.
She didn't seem to be too.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
No, no, she's not.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
And finally, our last film, number ten quints synopsisays young
Jamie Grover is fed up with being the center of
her parents' universe, so when she wishes for less attention
and her mom gives birth to quintuplets, things drastically changed.
We hated this one on the scale of one to ten.
Don knots cameos. I'm assuming it's because don Knats was
(20:53):
in it. I don't remember, Uh what did we actually
rank quints?
Speaker 1 (20:57):
If memory serves, we didn't love this.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
Movie, and she is awesome. She was great, though. I
remember the whole time, we're thinking like, because she did
a lot. Remember this was the one where she broke
the fourth wall quite a bit. Yeah, and we were like,
she did it really well. It wasn't weird. It was good,
but the.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
Parents are really bad.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
And then there was a whole thing at the end
where they just like jumped into a car or something.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
It was really.
Speaker 3 (21:20):
Strange, strange, strange writing. I guess maybe you're just strange.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
Yeah, I'm going to say I gave it five don
Knots cameos, and I can't even remember if don.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Knots was in it.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
I think I did six don Knots cameos.
Speaker 4 (21:37):
You both gave it five point five? Okay, Will said Kimberly,
save this movie because she was so good. These parents
were such bad parents, said Kimberly, was great. It was
so confusing. I didn't like the freeze frames.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Yes, that's right, the freeze frames. Yes, okay, well that
was fun.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
By the way, I don't want to ask anybody out
there to rate Magical Rewine on a scale of one
to ten. I don't want to know. I don't want
to know. But this was a ton of fun. I
think we did better than I thought we would. Frankly,
there's only one or two we were horribly off on. Yeah,
and since we're approaching a hundred movies, that's not too bad.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
No, that's a lot.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
So I think that's good. That's a lot of movies,
and I think we should do it again to keep
us in check.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
So thank you everybody for joining us on this little
sojourney of trying to figure out what our memories are
like and what's going on and all that kind of stuff.

The Burden
The Burden is a documentary series that takes listeners into the hidden places where justice is done (and undone). It dives deep into the lives of heroes and villains. And it focuses a spotlight on those who triumph even when the odds are against them. Season 5 - The Burden: Death & Deceit in Alliance On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder, and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; “He paid me to do it.” David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a “live” investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was David’s claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, “broke” her.” The results will shock the listener and reduce Maggie to tears and self-doubt. This is not your typical wrongful conviction story. In fact, it turns the genre on its head. It asks the question: What if our champions are foolish? Season 4 - The Burden: Get the Money and Run “Trying to murder my father, this was the thing that put me on the path.” That’s Joe Loya and that path was bank robbery. Bank, bank, bank, bank, bank. In season 4 of The Burden: Get the Money and Run, we hear from Joe who was once the most prolific bank robber in Southern California, and beyond. He used disguises, body doubles, proxies. He leaped over counters, grabbed the money and ran. Even as the FBI was closing in. It was a showdown between a daring bank robber, and a patient FBI agent. Joe was no ordinary bank robber. He was bright, articulate, charismatic, and driven by a dark rage that he summoned up at will. In seven episodes, Joe tells all: the what, the how… and the why. Including why he tried to murder his father. Season 3 - The Burden: Avenger Miriam Lewin is one of Argentina’s leading journalists today. At 19 years old, she was kidnapped off the streets of Buenos Aires for her political activism and thrown into a concentration camp. Thousands of her fellow inmates were executed, tossed alive from a cargo plane into the ocean. Miriam, along with a handful of others, will survive the camp. Then as a journalist, she will wage a decades long campaign to bring her tormentors to justice. Avenger is about one woman’s triumphant battle against unbelievable odds to survive torture, claim justice for the crimes done against her and others like her, and change the future of her country. Season 2 - The Burden: Empire on Blood Empire on Blood is set in the Bronx, NY, in the early 90s, when two young drug dealers ruled an intersection known as “The Corner on Blood.” The boss, Calvin Buari, lived large. He and a protege swore they would build an empire on blood. Then the relationship frayed and the protege accused Calvin of a double homicide which he claimed he didn’t do. But did he? Award-winning journalist Steve Fishman spent seven years to answer that question. This is the story of one man’s last chance to overturn his life sentence. He may prevail, but someone’s gotta pay. The Burden: Empire on Blood is the director’s cut of the true crime classic which reached #1 on the charts when it was first released half a dozen years ago. Season 1 - The Burden In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. “The Hulk” was his nickname. Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers who all say they are innocent. They turned themselves into jailhouse-lawyers and in prison founded a lway firm. When they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away, they set their sights on taking him down. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they have a chance. For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But that’s all he’d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. “The guilty have gone free,” he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast. Welcome to The Burden.
