Ep. 62: Roger Rabbit, Toon Town Noir & the PG Movie That Went Too Far

Jeff & Josue head back to 1947 Hollywood (by way of 1988) for one of the strangest, boldest movies of their childhoods — Who Framed Roger Rabbit. 🐰🕵️‍♂️

They explore what makes this movie such a wild blend of noir grit, slapstick animation, and jokes no child should’ve understood. From Eddie Valiant’s grief and Jessica Rabbit’s infamous entrance to Judge Doom’s nightmare-fuel reveal and the Pattycake gag, this episode breaks down everything that made the film unforgettable.

Plus, Jeff tests Josue with a brand-new “Toon Town Roll Call” cameo quiz.
