Episode 10: This Is a Crime Against Pixar (Pt. 1)

Episode 10 is messy in the best way: another Part 1. Our dynamic duo kicks things off with a quick “we’re sorry” because Kay’s audio betrays us again (we tested… and still got humbled) before spiraling immediately into new news: Kay is basically in a committed relationship with yerba mate, and Zach [finally] discovers Stranger Things. Who's gonna die? We have theories. From there, things get real. Kay talks through a brutal depression dip - what it feels like when your brain can’t remember “better,” why “functional depression” is a scam label, and how tiny check-in texts can matter more than people realize. And then we hit the main event: Zach drops a mystery animated feature film ranking list and Kay has to place each movie blind on a tier list - with bonus chaos rules (a wild-card movie, a redemption swap, and a “defend my most controversial take” moment ready to detonate). Soundtrack bias is absolutely weaponized, historically importance vs. emotional irrelevance is debated, and the weight of vibes curated/plot optional gets a look. Our heroes only get through three movies before the episode becomes too long and snaps in half, so this one ends on a cliffhanger with the rest of the list still locked in Zach’s vault. Want to hear which movie takes the cake and which one bottoms out? You'll have to hit Multiverse'd up again in Part 2.
