Episode 12: Hocus Pocus

I'll Have What She's Podcasting

Form a calming circle and lock up your virgins, it's everyone's favourite Halloween-cabaret-ensemble-film-starring-Queen-Bette Midler....HOCUS POCUS! We love it, you love it, none of us need to talk about how old it is (JACKIE). In this film we discuss witches, virgins, the Marshalls, sibling love, and we have an existential crisis about whether there is a current day equivalent of dressing as Hanky-Panky era Madonna (please DM us if you know, we're still agonising over this). So come join us for a good time! Dost thou comprehend? Some handy-dandy references: Lots of BTS interviews and deleted scene facts from Disney Dave! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZIL9EghweY Some good chat from the cast on the 20th anniversary, including Doug Jones talking about having the live moths in his mouth at around 7:09 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6HtjleWUkUM Link to the website for the Revisionist History episodes on the Little Mermaid - do yourself a favour and get stuck into these!
