63. Wendy Wu: Homecoming Warrior: A Date with Destiny (Season 4 Premiere)

Let’s get down to business, to defeat… well not the Huns but something evil at least. That’s right listeners it’s time to do your training and pick out your best formal wear as we kick (haha get it?) off season 4 with the 2006 Brenda Song led classic, Wendy Wu: Homecoming Warrior. Jake recalls his history as a Power Rangers kid, Kate learns that Disney has actually given away properties they’ve bought, and both of them give flowers to Brenda Song for making their childhoods as well as claim her as a Disney legend. They also discuss the current status of the DCOM and decide their new ending point. This episodes tangents include but are not limited to: Living in the cold, RIP DCOMs as we know them, The Disney Channel Games, International Disney Channel shows, Researching mythology, Mooncakes, Staying at the mall too late, Avoiding Karen allegations, and the lack of homecoming in this movie. Disclaimer: We say it in the episode but please take anything we say regarding the authenticity of representation of Asian Americans in this film with huge grains of salt. Neither of us have that experience but we would love to hear from those of you who do. Also sorry for Kates audio, her computer is on life support so she was using her phone for this recording.
