Let’s-a-go listeners! It’s time to once again celebrate the birthday of one of your lovely co-hosts by discussing a film not made by Disney. So to celebrate Jake’s birthday this year we’re gonna eat some mushrooms and drive on rainbow road as we discuss the 2023 Illumination and Nintendo collaboration, The Super Mario Bros. Movie. Jake laments how this movie gave Universal the perfect blueprint for a Mario Kart ride and they just ignored it, Kate learns just how stacked the voice cast of this movie truly is, and both of them discuss their history with Nintendo consoles and once again yap about Epic Universe (which is now open to the public you guys!!!), as well as discuss some quick housekeeping as we get ready for a very big life event.

This episodes tangents include but are not limited to: A closer look at the various Super Nintendo Worlds, The other Jack Black movie based on a video game, The first Mario movie, The recent change in how video game movies are being made, Illumination’s minion problem, Friends lying to us about rent in New York City, Bowser performing nightly at Universal Studios, and a critique of courting techniques.
