Balto or: How I Learned Dogs Can Be Racist(?)

from Kicking & Streaming · host Carie & Ross

The answer is of course, no. Dogs are only as racist as we teach them to be. Welcome, lil onions, to the final stretch of 2024. This month, we're doing low-impact childhood favorites to end our year on a soft place to fall. Up first is our breakdown of a harrowing yet endearing story of a half-wolf dog who wants desperately to be respected by his community. We're breaking down Balto (1995), a story that is rooted in history but very much diverges from fract. Ross is up front and center, ready to call Carie out on her affinity for animated animals. Carie gets emotional throughout about the mission of these doggos, and cannot be consoled ("MOVIES ABOUT DOGS ARE THE BEST!"). The siblings are both plagued by feelings that this movie brings up about other movies or tv in their childhoods that gripped them deeply.  SUPPORT US ON PATREON!

It's a 2010 animated sci-fi movie starring Chris Pine, John Travolta, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Amanda Peet, James Earl Jones, Mark Hamill, William Shatner, Samuel L. Jackson, Jason Alexander, Sandra Oh, and Neil Armstrong. It ran in one theater in Kentucky, then disappeared forever. It never got a wide theatrical release or home video release and it's never been on any streaming services. I set out to find Quantum Quest and along the way found there's a lot more to this story than your typical lost media piece, and the butterfly effect of this movie reaches further than I could have imagined. Finding Quantum Quest started as the search for a lost movie but ended up being much more. I spoke with filmmakers, actors, NASA employees, and neuroscientists who led me down a rabbit hole of art, science, exploration, and ultimately what it means to be human. Explicit
