What Did I Miss? (October 2025 Bonus Episode)

This month, we welcome back Sophie, aka Soupninjaha, and for the first time, Blythe Milligan, host of the Everything is Logistics Podcast and one-half of the brain behind Jax Podcasters United.

We stack Universal’s Epic Universe against Disney’s current strategy and ask what families actually value: price, polish, and memory-making. Then we follow the money from bloated blockbusters to horror’s lean machine, and explore how IMAX, the Sphere, and fan-first screenings are redefining the movie night.

• Epic Universe’s creative swing versus Disney’s maintenance and pricing headwinds
• How themed events like Halloween Horror Nights create con-like community
• live-action adaptations that work, those that don’t, and what should stay animated
• Universal’s demographic plays in Vegas and Frisco, and what it means for Disney
• Why studios are trimming tentpoles and why horror keeps winning
• The rise of premium formats: IMAX, Alamo, and immersive venues like the Sphere
• The thrill of mystery boxes and the hunt driving modern retail fandom

Make sure to join us at Jacksonville Podcasters United Pod-A-Thon in December to support local creators and charities!
