This week we’re talking about one of the most popular Disney movies of all time, starring one of the most popular comedians of all time – by which we of course mean Gilbert Gottfried. It’s 1992’s Aladdin! We talk about the many ways in which this film holds up nearly 30 years later…and the few notable ways in which it doesn’t.

Me, Mom & The Mouse is a podcast about the joy of watching cartoons with your family. If you like this episode, please subscribe and join us each Friday as we watch every film in the Disney Animated Canon and talk about how it was made, what it means, and why we love it (or don’t.)
