Leaving the problematic adventures of Peter Pan behind them, film journalist Ben Travis and animation academic Sam Summers tuck into a delicious meatball feast of a movie in Walt Disney Animation Studios’ adorable 1955 heartwarmer, Lady And The Tramp. And for this episode they’re joined by Radio 1’s Ali Plumb – a guy who knows as much about dogs as he does about movies, here to impart all kinds of canine wisdom across a discussion that takes in doggy dates, the threat of the A-bomb, and the art of howl-singing. Dig in. Next up: Sleeping Beauty Disniversity is brought to you by Ben Travis (@benstravis) and Sam Summers (@samsummers0), with art by Olly Gibbs and music by Nafets.
