Talkin' The Dog Who Saved Easter Talkin' Talkin' Animals podcast

1:17:01

Babe (1995) For our season finale, we go from the garbage fire of The Dog Who Saved Easter to one of the most beautiful movies ever made. A simple movie about a pig trying to find his place in the world; about breaking stereotypes, and forging relationships; about eschewing the expectations placed upon you by the world, extolling the virtues of kindness and respect. A movie that needs no plot summary as it is the paragon of talking animal movies. This time, we at Talkin' Talkin' Animals are legitimately pleased to present to you, our review and discussion of the 1995 classic: Babe. Within this episode, such topics are discussed as: The sheer beauty of this movie How Garrett's going to hell James Cromwell's almost unbelievably badass life The surprisingly interwoven industries of New Zealand talent and voice actors Discrimination, dehumanization, and the concept of "otherness" as applied to animals Andy's Corner of commenting on the main (animal) character's phallus Kevins' daughters' questionable system of determining cinematic value Garrett does 6 degrees of separation linking disparate actors through Babe The gang plays several rounds of fuck-marry-kill with the animals from Babe and the rest of the talking animals this season…

The Dog Who Saved Easter (2014) A family drops off their yellow lab (Zeus) to be pet-sat while they are on vacation. A rival pet-sitting company sets out to sabotage the new competition by hiring bumbling criminals to sabotage... ... you know what? Fuck it. This movie was beyond trash. Dean Cain is trash. We watched this trash so that you don't have to. If you're an inattentive suburban parent in need of distracting your brats with soft, mindless, low-budget entertainment for 1 hour and 27 minutes - boy, do we have the movie for you. All others should just listen to this episode and count your blessings we intercepted this trash first. Within this episode, we at Talkin' Talkin' Animals: Mercilessly and justifiably rip on Dean Cain for 40 minutes. That's pretty much it. * STILL not sponsored by Ola Hard Seltzer…

Francis aka: Francis The Talking Mule (1950) A banker recalls his experience as a hapless 2nd Lieutenant in Burma during WW2 when his career had vaulted (and his sanity was questioned) by receiving valuable military intelligence from an incredibly condescending and racist talking mule. Within this episode, contention develops in the ranks as the hosts vehemently disagree on the rank of Francis The Talking Mule among this season's line-up thus far, and powerful themes are discussed such as: Anti-Japanese racism and the temporal context of ethnic slurs in cinema Acknowledgement and treatment of PTSD by the military (or historically the lack thereof) Commentary on the oftentimes ridiculous nature of bureaucratic advancement A shockingly graphic wartime massacre for a comedy movie How racist talking mules fit into the shifting political demography of America Mule dicks in cinema (or historically the lack thereof) * Still not sponsored by Ola Hard Seltzer…

A genteel symposium on the 1978 Disney movie, The Cat from Outer Space , in which the felines may have been dangerously sedated, and our three podcast heroes might be as well. Topics of discussion: The relative merits of the commanding officers of M*A*S*H Issues of consent between talking and non-talking animals The world's longest, most uneventful aerial chase Lax security at our nation's military bases How Disney indoctrinated our children into a life of gambling Where's our Mr. Olympus spin-off movie?! The boys (mostly Kevin) get very thirsty for a cat named Jake…
