Mt. Molehill

Scout Young and Penny Parker•bsky.app

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.

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.

Pilot: "The Thirteenth Year" aka The Savior and His Inescapable Fate

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.
