Ep 67 - The Princess Diaries

DISNEY
About this episode

This week we're talking about a princess who might not want to be a princess anymore - somebody call Oprah.  Join your favourite Disney Podcasters – Ellie, Ethan, Georgia and Ian – as we grab our electric scooters and head to San Francisco with The Princess Diaries.  Questions we asked this week include: Is there anyone who does the ugly duckling tale better than Anne Hathaway?  Is it a requirement of the Genovian prime minister to open all official state functions in song?  Why is Mia even friends with Lily and when does she decide that she wants to be with Michael? Does this film waste both Sandra Oh and Hector Elizondo? Why does the American press have power over the Genovian crown? Why is there a race against time at all? and perhaps most importantly, why does Genovia hold their independence ball outside of Genovia and in San Francisco?

If that wasn't enough for you, we've got some more content from friend of the podcast, Andrew, in our Pause for the Parks segment.

So, catch up on some great Disney content and then join the conversation (@talkthemickey), Instagram (@talkingthemickey), or on our Facebook page (@talkingthemickey).
