(Deep Dive begins at 43:40)

We have just met you and we already love you. Join your favourite TransAtlantic podcasters, Ian, Liam, Georgia, and eventually Megan (Ethan's run off with some balloons and an air blower) as we're heading, well, up in the Pixar animated film, Up. We're looking to invest in talking collars for our 218th episode as we discuss:

What is it that makes this film such a tearjerker
Is this a kids film by default? Does Pixar ever go another direction?
Is the plot regarding Kevin and Charles Muntz stupid
Who is Charles Muntz a caricature of?
We talk a lot about shapes
Ian and Hermes appear in the Coda to keep talking about Mystic River
Whether or not Up is the Best Film Ever
