Annie and Dan are joined by Jake from the famous Mickey Mutineers Podcast to break down the insanity that is the 1944 Disney Animation Classic, The Three Caballeros.

The movie features Donald Duck, who appears to be visited by a possessed film projector that takes him into an existential, and surreal, journey into the culture of South and Central America. There's also something called The Aracuan, which is either a witch or a demon. 

The film is the inspiration of The Gran Fiesta Tour at the Mexico Pavilion in Epcot, so it has that going for it. 

It also may be Jake's favorite movie, by the way he talks about it, which could explain some things.

The main topic for the evening is not only fun, but also a Civics lesson. Annie and Dan separately came up with their Cabinet of Disney Characters, where they choose characters to fill the traditional US Cabinet positions. It's Edutainment!
