A Simple Wish (1997) with Tara Tagliaferro (Down the Yellow Brick Pod)

Get your jelly sandals on and your magic wands at the ready - we're not in Manhattan any more! The wickedly talented Tara Tagliaferro of Down the Yellow Brick Pod returns to chat with us about this quirky little number that captivated a micro-generation with its peculiar charms, and highlights some favourite fantasy books from her childhood.


Truth-speaking 90s family movie icon Mara Wilson, preposterous auditions, Kathleen Turner's witch-to-conductor costume change, characters being flattened with early CGI magic, Lucy Simon giving us Broadway mega-musical pastiche with Two Cities, a giant rabbi, fairy godmother exams, Boots, Martin Short's Mad Hatter flipper, ketchup girl, The Jolly Postman and his tea-filled bladder, a treasury of Chappell Roans, NOT Tim Curry as NOT Andrew Lloyd Webber, self-insert fanfic, Bogus with Gerard Depardieu, paperback novelisations, madcap energy and Princess Furball await.


We share our thoughts on the movie and its themes, some behind the scenes gossip, delve into the nightmarish moments and dream up some ridiculous merch.


Will there be more than one magical human-dog fusion mentioned in this episode? Listen and find out!
