Show of the Month: Generation Mouse Episode 65: To be honest I should say that I am a
fan of the Generation Mouse podcast, but when I saw the title of this weeks
show on the iTunes run down I was very hesitant to download it. In fact, I waited
two days before I finally downloaded the show and my expectations we set very,
very low. Why? The title of this weeks show is, “Once Upon a Time”. I knew
right from the start that the Gen Mouse crew would be discussing the ABC series
Once Upon a Time. From the time the show started I had absolutely zero interest
in the show, and a lot of the podcasts that were dedicated to it. I bit my tongue,
took a deep breath, and made a promise to try to get myself through, at least,
the first 15 minutes of this podcast. I should say that I really do applaud the
crew for not taking the “Cars Land” bait like every other podcast did this
week. They took a step away from their original content and talked about
something different. The reason why they did this is because they are very
passionate about this tv show, and that passion shows on this weeks show when
they run down the entire seasons happenings. As a word of caution, they do tell you everything that happens on Once Upon a
Time; spoilers and all. Not only did they keep my attention for the entire
podcast, but not I am going to make an effort to watch Once Upon a Time. Their
opinions and analysis of the tv show is well thought out, and articulate. At times
host Mark does get confused about some of the details but the girls straighten
him out. I do warn that this week’s podcast is not for everyone. They kind of
get mired in the minute details of the show and get into a lot of, “Well so and
so met so and so, and then had a fight with so and so, because he didn’t like
so and so”. It can get a little confusing at times, but if you hang in there it
is worth it. Again, no theme park history, news, or stories this week. But they
do have a really great discussion about a TV show that I previously had no interest
in. Thanks to this week’s Generation Mouse podcast I am going to give Once Upon
a Time a shot.
