Life"s But A Song ·

2026/02/23

Jon invited back Kendra to revisit our Millennial childhoods with this Nickelodeon movie that serves as a way to introduce a new character to the Rugrats world. They talk a lot about the music and how this soundtrack was important to kids at the time, and Kendra makes a good point about the decline of children's entertainment trusting the comprehension skills of their audience.Crushgasm's Links: https://linktr.ee/CrushgasmPodcast Socials -Email: butasongpod@gmail.comFacebook: @butasongpodInstagram:

And, as always, all roads lead to Riverdale when these two are together, so they of course try to rationalize why Riverdale chose this musical as an episode.Ashley's Instagram: @shleebaleePodcast Socials -Email: butasongpod@gmail.comFacebook: @butasongpodInstagram: @butasongpodThreads: @butasongpodYouTube: @butasongpodNext episode: Repo!

Well, Jon thought this would have been more of a fun bad movie instead of what it was. He and Ashley watched both the original 2001 movie and this unasked for remake without letting the other know, and decided to compare the remake to the original to see why it was made.Ashley's Instagram: @shleebaleePodcast Socials -Email: butasongpod@gmail.comFacebook: @butasongpodInstagram: @butasongpodThreads: @butasongpodYouTube: @butasongpodNext episode: Repo!

In this long episode (not sorry), the trio talk about the insanity of this story with two batshit crazy movies that each have their problems, but also moments of pure camp.But seriously, does anyone know how they did that water moment in the 1961 movie?Beards and Sundries Website:
