“I’m absolutely loving this podcast, was so sad to see it seemed to have come to an end then out of the blue a new episode appears. Hooray! I’ve just entered the dark age but let’s be honest the worst is yet to come in the early 00’s. Time to get back to class, keep up the good work.”

“I just found this podcast and am binging! Ben and Sam have opened up my favorite movies in a whole new way - well researched and because they love animation, the heart of the movies are kept in the episodes.”

“A fantastic blend of introduction to films you don’t know very well or a great dive into the history and detail of those you may have watched on repeat.
Would be great to know when it may be back as I’ve just completed an entire re-listen so far this year.”

“Just wanted to say that I love the show but to mention that anyone who was a kid in the 70s remembers the Rescuers. It’s certainly not a ‘forgotten movie’ by Gen Xers. We had the vinyl soundtrack too which was played to death at home and loved this movie when it was new. It was everywhere! Books,...”Read full review »

“I am starting at the beginning here since I just found out about this podcast via EOH. It’s not much of a jump from Grimm tales like Snow White! But I have to say, if a bodice was put on Snow, it would be over a chemise, pervs! :) I am up to the Fantasia episode now and it’s fab! Thanks for...”Read full review »

“This is my favourite podcast. It’s not just two dudes talking about Disney movies. Sam is so well researched and brings the knowledge and Ben keeps the whole show very organized while bringing his own perspective. Can’t recommend highly enough.”

“It took me a couple of gos to get into this podcast. I’m a huge Disney fan and was delighted to discover it. I experienced it like I did Pixar’s Soul. First time I experienced it I thought it lacked its own voice and didn’t pop. Then I tried again and realised it was a work of art. I don’t always...”Read full review »

“What a lovely, well-researched podcast. I could listen to these hosts all day. I have learned so much and been introduced to the incredible talent of the Disney universe—I would have never known about the wonderful life of Howard Ashman if not for this podcast. Thank you!!”

“The idea behind Disniversity is a simple one: two film fans discuss the Disney Classics catalogue, where one of them (Sam) knows a lot about them and one of them (Ben) knows a little bit about them. Along the way, Sam teaches both Ben and the pod audience all about the history of the film,...”Read full review »

But as I have listened, I have found it to be so much more than just listening to two people talking...”Read full review »

I got about five films in before this podcast started. I halted my quest and listened to the pods as they caught up and have followed along ever since....”Read full review »

For example in the Fantasia episode the...”Read full review »

“A really insightful look into the Disney catalog. Ben and Sam treat the movies like the art they are and never like cynical entertainment aimed at kids. It’s been really fun learning how little I actually know about Disney movies. It’s worth a listen even if you don’t have the time to watch along!”

“Is Beauty and the Beast the best Disney animated film of all time? Probably, it's at least in the top three.
