Jumanji(1995) | Episode 116-This Podcast Takes Tokens

"This Podcast Takes Tokens for those who seek to find a way to connect with the childhood they left behind."This week, we roll the dice on the 1995 Robin Williams classic, Jumanji. We dive deep into the production lore, including why the director was terrified to hire Robin Williams, the dark theory that Van Pelt is actually a manifestation of Alan’s father and a few theories of our own.We also break down the surprising box office numbers—did you know this movie only made $11 million its opening weekend? Ryan was shocked too —and we share our honest (and slightly brutal) thoughts on those CGI monkeys that definitely do not hold up in 1995 or 2026.In this episode:Retro Ramble: We discuss our favorite board games of all time, featuring zombies and public transit.Stale Popcorn: Ryan visits a classic record shop in KC , and Deric catches the Running Man remake on a long flight.Gum Under the Seat: We read your comments.Token Scores: Don’t miss the final score on this episode, we almost did.
