Episodes
Disney Compendium Vol. 56: Moana
November 24, 2021 14:00 - 1 hour - 72 MBUs two jabronis sit here at make wrestling jokes for about 90 minutes. You'll enjoy. Or else you can take your phone, shine it up, turn it sideways and....well. Just put it in your pocket. It's ok. Smackdown Blvd. is not your final destination today.
Disney Compendium Vol. 55: Zootopia
September 21, 2021 01:00 - 1 hour - 70.5 MBA Cops Are Bunnies and they are here to be buddy buddy with a citizen they claim to trust and respect but instantly reach for the deterrent on their belt the second they get flustered. It's a fun movie and not weird in today's climate at all!
Disney Compendium Vol. 54: Big Hero 6
September 01, 2021 04:31 - 2 hours - 115 MBOH NO! WE ARE BACK! WITH A MARVEL MOVIE! Kind of. Only technically. But it's here. We are back. Well. We were back. This was taped months ago and then I definitely ruined the whole schedule again. But we have the next episode in the can already and are planning the next! This text is going to be outdated really fast! Why am I typing so much? I'm just excited I guess. ENJOY!
Disney Compendium Vol. 53: Frozen
April 15, 2021 13:00 - 2 hours - 104 MBAs we reach the icy cold season of.........spring......we bring to you the festive classic that took the world by storm. Frozen is finally here and we do not sing the Let It Go. I Promise. Although hindsight being 20/20, we probably should have. That's good content.
DPR Presents: This Compendium Life For The Week Of 4-1-21
April 01, 2021 13:22 - 58 minutes - 48.8 MBLive again from sunny Main Street USA, the hosts return to the studio to discuss yet another Disney cinematic masterpiece, the spine chilling horror of one Mr. Boogedy.

Untitled Movie Show: The Home Show
March 29, 2021 14:00 - 2 hours - 149 MBWe needed to reboot here. Actually I did. Here we are, we just talk about movies we've seen since we've last recorded a show together. STRAP IN.
Disney Compendium Vol.52: Wreck-It Ralph
March 04, 2021 14:00 - 2 hours - 111 MBSo I guess in this episode I got it really wrong about when we did he last one. I don' know who that speaks more poorly of, myself or Winnie the Pooh. ANYWAY! It's the video game one now! The one that's not Tron! WOW!
Disney Compendium Vol. 51: Winnie The Pooh
January 13, 2021 01:22 - 1 hour - 98.1 MBDeep in the Hundred Acre Woods, you get a sequel. A weird self aware meta sequel. Up until this point, the main studio didn't do a lot of sequels. Was it worth their time? Join us as we watch the last traditional 2D animated film from the studio.
Disney Compendium: A Very Jolly Afternoon
December 22, 2020 14:00 - 1 hour - 101 MBString up the lights, light up the tree. Grab some nog (before the government takes it a way) and learn some lessons along the way. Maybe. Probably not.
Disney Compendium Vol. 50: Tangled
November 11, 2020 14:00 - 1 hour - 71.3 MBWe are here at episode 50. We are powering towards the Season Finale. Disney starts their new life. Like a phoenix from the ashes, they rise and start making good movies again and the hits keep coming with Tangled. A weird weird adaption, and I'm using the word adaption loosely.
Untitled Movie Show: Heaven's Gate
November 10, 2020 14:00 - 2 hours - 111 MBOne of the most important movies of all time. But is that a good thing? Spoilers: No.
Disney Compendium Vol.49: Princess and the Frog
October 02, 2020 14:00 - 1 hour - 108 MBDisney goes for one more hail mary at hand drawn style 2D animation and really just swings for the fences. Is it a slam dunk? Can I fit one more sports phrase in here? Saddle up. Hop a river boat into the bayou and listen to us talk about the movie destined to snuff out Song of the South once and for all.
Untitled Movie Show: Killing Them Softly
September 29, 2020 19:26 - 1 hour - 99.3 MBOnly a few movies have ever gotten a Cinemascore from audiences of an F. This is one of them. Unclear still why that happened. Hop on in and listen to this thing. Brad Pitt is in it. It has to be at least a LITTLE good.
Disney Compendium Special Edition: Song of the South Part 2 W/ Dali
September 08, 2020 15:01 - 1 hour - 68.8 MBPart 2! I conned a good friend in Dali Dimovski, who has never seen this movie before and only knows the fact that it's the banned movie, and we discuss the views and politics behind the movie and if it's the right call to keep it locked away in the vault forever.
Disney Compendium Special Edition: Song of the South
September 08, 2020 15:00 - 2 hours - 145 MBA mega sized two part episode. In this part, it's your usual fair of J.J. and Nick being really confused about who this movie is for. In this, the Disney Movie That Shall Not Be Named, we go inside the production, the history, and if it's really as bad as the rumors you've heard say it is. Maybe it's even worse! Join us!
Untitled Movie Show: Top Gun
September 08, 2020 01:13 - 1 hour - 108 MBWe have the need....the need to get this movie over with. We aren't allowed to go and and go playin' with the boys, because that would put us in the danger zone. 2020 baby. But that doesn't stop of from talking about Top Gun. Top Gun. TOP GUN.
Disney Compendium Vol. 48: Bolt
August 12, 2020 12:00 - 2 hours - 123 MBThe Disney Revival Era is upon us. And it kicks off with...a talking dog trapped in his own little Truman Show. Well alright then. Let's see how this shakes out I guess.
Disney Compendium Vol. 47: Meet The Robinsons
August 07, 2020 13:00 - 1 hour - 106 MBThis isn't a Space Family Robinson movie like I thought it was going to be. Like, REALLY REALLY not. It's not even all that funny. But join us as we are a start the journey into the Disney Revival era.
Untitled Movie Show: The Dark Tower
August 07, 2020 04:04 - 2 hours - 114 MBI have never read the books. He's read all the books. We both have totally different expectations. How do we feel?!

July 13, 2020 17:00 - 1 hour - 77.5 MBBack again again. With the followup to the last one. The Matrix sequels in which I had never seen on of until just before this show. Wild stuff.

May 08, 2020 14:00 - 2 hours - 124 MBAs the Beyonder, I gather 3 jackasses (and close personal friends) and make them pit Earth's Mightiest Heroes against one another. Only they don't know what they'll be up against. A fun game to entertain mostly ourselves and hopefully you to.

J.J. and Jake's Untitled Movie Show: Jurassic Park
March 19, 2020 03:31 - 1 hour - 95.3 MBJurassic Park. That's honestly all I have to say. I can't imagine anybody sitting down, putting this on, and thinking Jurassic Park is a bad movie. That's simply not rational thought.
Disney Compendium Vol. 44: Brother Bear
March 18, 2020 19:00 - 1 hour - 65.4 MBLook. I'm going to level with you. Things aren't good. The world is falling apart, this movie absolutely blows, and we do everything we can to not talk about this movie. It's a short episode. We are in dark times. Both in the Disney timeline and just reality in genera. Things will get better. Again, in both senses.
Disney Compendium Vol. 43: Treasure Planet
March 11, 2020 15:00 - 1 hour - 81.2 MBWE'RE BACK! A PODCASTER STORY. First off, sorry I'm so quite. I did my best to fix it. I have a new setup. Treasure Planet is a bizarre little movie that the hosts mostly agree on, but you should just listen. It's great.

Lucas Omnibus Episode 5: The Empire Strikes Back
January 23, 2020 02:17 - 2 hours - 137 MBJoin us as I yell at my friend for being too insightful about one of the greatest movies and sequels of all time. The Empire Strikes Back episode if full of stories, behind the scenes action, financials and see if you can figure out where I said the F word!

Join us as the hosts travel back to 1977 (and before that even) a time when they weren't even alive to discuss on of this most important movies in the history of the art and give you so many facts you might start to think that you were Lucas himself.

Lucas Omnibus Episode 2: Attack of the Clones
December 14, 2019 02:50 - 2 hours - 121 MBThe most reviled and hated (almost as much as Anakin hates sand) Star War is here, and the two hosts gush about it. Mostly. Join us on a journey of clones, bounty hunters, and political intrigue. Begun, this Clone War has.
Disney Compendium Vol. 42: Lilo & Stitch
December 12, 2019 15:00 - 2 hours - 112 MBIn what is probably Disney's most human movie they've done in decades, which is funny since one character isn't, the hosts go on a Hawaiian roller coaster ride in this Elvis infused 2002 classic.
Disney Compendium Vol. 41: Atlantis: The Lost Empire
December 05, 2019 15:00 - 2 hours - 113 MBLook. I'm not going to beat around the bush here. We were not looking for to this one. It's definitely not a highlight of the studios output and we just...we just couldn't. Our pain is your joy though! It's a good episode, but I've got some bias.
Lucas Omnibus Episode 1: The Phantom Menace
November 27, 2019 15:00 - 2 hours - 126 MBIntroducing a new ongoing series, starting with a 6 part series exploring the entire world of Star Wars from two men that love Star Wars maybe too much, all 6 Lucas movies at least.

Disney Compendium Annex 4: The Vault
November 08, 2019 14:00 - 1 hour - 104 MBThe Vault! Where the racial stereotypes go to either die or be preserved for another generation to enjoy! When you need to make future money off a movie? The Vault! Need a single frame from a short nobody remembers from 1948? The Vault! And also lots and lots of things not related to the vault at all are discussed. Enjoy!
Disney Compendium Vol. 40: The Emperor's New Groove + The Sweatbox
October 23, 2019 15:00 - 1 hour - 98.5 MBThe year 2000 brought us a lot of content. This is one of them. What do you get when a film falls apart at the seams and just becomes something completely different with 90% less Sting than originally intended? Here you go. As a bonus, we also include a lengthy discussion about the fully filmed, but never release (but easy to find now) documentary covering the whole mess of a production. BOOM BABY!
Disney Compendium Vol. 39: Dinosaur
October 14, 2019 14:00 - 1 hour - 75.3 MBIn a post Jurassic Park world, Disney tries their own hand at Pixar and well... With a stunning history of who is responsible to it existing to trying to drop in every Dinosaur movie you could think of, this episode has it all.

Disney Compendium Vol. 36: Mulan
August 27, 2019 16:47 - 1 hour - 84.9 MBCan the two hosts talk about Chinese culture without embarrassing themselves? Let's find out! Disney takes on the topic of female representation. Do they nail the landing or stumble like fools. This 1998 classic is the penultimate Disney Renaissance film. It's genuinely kind of exciting to think about.
Disney Compendium Vol. 35: Hercules
August 02, 2019 15:00 - 2 hours - 110 MBIS HE SWEET? OUR FAVORITE FLAVOR. Disney takes a shot at ancient mythology. Is their aim true and pure? Or do they miss the target again as the Renaissance draws closer to a close? TUNE IN! James Woods is a vile villain, and is also Hades in this movie! Enjoy!

Disney Compendium Vol. 33: Pocahontas
July 09, 2019 15:00 - 1 hour - 108 MBHey. Disney went historical. You can guess how well that went. Done with the best of intentions or a cynical attempt to diversify their princess portfolio? Tune in and listen to the hosts really try and find the good in this one. ENJOY!
