S3E8 Walt Disney Vs. Frozen with Sierra Katow

11/16/23 • 44 min

Ready for a brain freeze? We're piling on a Disney-sized serving of conspiracy theories that might change your view of the animated film 'Frozen'. As we scrutinize the evidence and sift through articles, we'll challenge the idea that Frozen was named as a distraction from a much larger conspiracy theory surrounding Walt Disney's death. And wait till we reveal how Taylor Swift might be unwittingly tied to all this. It's more twists and turns than a Disneyland rollercoaster. This month’s guest is the super talented writer, actor, and comedian Sierra Katow.
