Episode Synopsis

Happy birthday, Mickey Mouse!!! To celebrate Steamboat Willie finally, FINALLY falling into the public domain, we look at the 1988 television event Mickey's 60th Birthday, when a wizard makes Mickey lose his mojo and then he meets the cast of Cheers and Family Ties (big sit coms at the time, ask your parents). We ended up talking for two hours because we get distracted by talking about the bizarre history of Roger Rabbit, Jim Hensen's traveling puppet medicine show, the bullshit of Time's Man of the Year, Disney racism, and the black hole of Michael Eisner's charisma.
