 Welcome to the premiere episode of That Darn Cast, where Jeff Lakin and McKenna Oakes Lakin plunge into the depths of the Disney live action feature film catalog, all thanks to their local library.This week, we give a little background of what we've got in mind for the show, then we start at the beginning (ish), with 1950's Treasure Island! We talk about tax loopholes, "fight guy" programs, the origins of the pirate voice, and bum you out with some true hollywood stories, Disney-style! Plus, we've got some recommendations for things outside the Disney bubble that we love and think you will too.So join us, won't you, on this Live Action Disney Adventure!(...you know, like the old magazine? I'm not the only one who loved that magazine, right?)  

That Darn 'Cast!

01 - Treasure Island (1950)

Jeff and McKenna love their local library, and all that it offers.Turns out, that includes a treasure trove of old Disney live action movies, just sitting unloved on a free streaming platform.But no longer! Each week, Jeff and McKenna will dive in to a classic Disney live-action feature, from the 50s through today's live-action remake bonanza. We'll cover the good, the bad, the memories, and let's face it, a whole lotta Don Knotts.
