About this episode

Pop the popcorn and settle in to a comfy seat because this week, we are all about a deep dive into Disney’s Encanto! Meg invited her oldest daughter Dacey (newly 17!) to help her dissect and discuss what makes this movie so magical for people of all ages. Dacey lends her musical theory expertise while Meg draws out the big themes that are connecting with so many people. Even if you haven’t seen the movie, you don’t want to miss this conversation! We’re talking mascara and the 90s in Awesome of the Week, and our Encanto conversation starts at the 16:16 mark!
