The Forbidden Dance

Two lambada movies were released on March 16, 1990, but only one was written in 10 days and focuses on a Brazilian princess saving the rainforest by dancing on a TV show judged by Mama Coconut. Paul, June, and Jason watched The Forbidden Dance and discuss the cultural impact of the lambada, Joa the magical shaman, if the Jason character is a Choppleganger, Nisa's solo lambada dancing, Carmen offering her bed to a strange man to have sex in, and so much more. Plus, Paul chronicles the falling out between Cannon Films co-founders Golan and Golbus that led to the production of two dueling lambada films.   Buy our "Jason Baby Needs A Swayze" t-shirt for this episode in black here or white here. • Go to hdtgm.com for tour dates, merch, FAQs, and more• Leave us a voicemail at speakpipe.com/hdtgm• Submit your Last Looks theme song here• Join our Discord at discord.gg/hdtgm• Buy merch at howdidthisgetmade.dashery.com/• Order Paul’s book about his childhood: Joyful Recollections of Trauma• Shop our new hat collection at podswag.com• Paul’s Discord: discord.gg/paulscheer• Paul’s YouTube page: youtube.com/paulscheer• Follow Paul on Letterboxd: letterboxd.com/paulscheer• Subscribe The Dark Web w/ Paul & Rob Huebel: youtube.com/@enterthedarkweb• Listen to Unspooled with Paul & Amy Nicholson: unspooledpodcast.com• Listen to The Deep Dive with June & Jessica St. Clair: thedeepdiveacademy.com/podcast• Instagram: @hdtgm, @paulscheer, & @junediane• Twitter: @hdtgm, @paulscheer, & msjunediane  • Jason is not on social media• Episode transcripts available at how-did-this-get-made.simplecast.com/episodesGet access to all the podcasts you love, music channels and radio shows with the SiriusXM App!
