Five(ish) Fangirls Episode #275: How Kuzco Got His Groove Back

He's the sovereign lord of the nation. He's the hippest cat in creation. He's the alpha, the omega, A to Z. And this perfect world will spin, around his every little whim, 'cos this perfect world begins and ends with him. What's his name? Kuzco!
Join us as we throwback to the franchise that kicked off with one of the more underappreciated movies in the Disney vault, The Emperor's New Groove. We discuss the little-known turbulent history of the film, its spin-offs, and whether we think this one deserves the live-action treatment or as Kuzco would say, "No touchy!" Plus the news, your feedback and a few tangents.
