Jay, I genuinely cannot remember the last time I was this excited to record a podcast.

I find this fascinating. Yeah, I mean, you're never overtly excited, I have to say. You're kind

of like middle of the road. Middle of the road might be like kind of a generous way to describe my general

attitude of let's get this motherfucking shit over with. I won't like it until it's done.

But this time, I think we have something so special for everyone.

What is the show about?

Tonight we are going to dive into the complete broadcast of Disney's DTV Monster Hits,

which was a primetime TV special that aired on NBC Friday, October 30th, 1987.

Yeah, so this is like that sweet spot. Oh my God, it just puts tingles up and down my spine.

You know, I've been doing the fucking old retro stick for literally half my life now.

Yeah. It takes a lot to overwhelm me with nostalgia and this did it.

It's surprising, though, because I have to say, you're not notoriously a Disney fanatic, but there are

specific things that we're going to discuss tonight that really get you into it. No, I'm not a Disney

fanatic as opposed to you who pointed that out no less than 30 times for me while they were

discussed. You'll tell me, you take such fucking offense like of course i've

heard of it you act like i'm asking have you heard of micky mouse i'm asking pretty deep cuts i'm

just making sure that you know what i'm talking about so there's this animated sequence by

disney no i never heard of it man, dude, I got to tell you again.
