Join us in a special celebration of Mickey Mouse on his 90th birthday! Mickey Mouse turns 90 on 11/18/18!! We celebrate the legend, the pop culture icon and the man behind the mouse on this very special episode. Dave Skale (The Ghost Host; Rebel Spy) takes us on a journey through Mickey’s history from the very inception. Mickey’s birth starts with Oswald the Rabbit in the 1920’s, then continues through film shorts in the 30’s and 40’s. The 50’s saw the rise of TV and The Mickey Mouse Club. But it’s not all “Oh Boy’s” and “Hot Dogs!” Mickey has had his fair share of legal battles. We take Mickey’s story all the way to the present and beyond with exhaustive research, sound clips and music. Join us in this special celebration!
