The Cinephile Hissy Fit Podcast Welcomes Actress Lilan Bowden

The Cinephile Hissy Fit podcast, sponsored and supported by the Ruminations Radio Network, was recently taken aback to learn of a kink they never knew existed. Apparently, there’s a secretive cool club of people who have a thing for attractive animated foxes! It took a special guest to inform the guys. Now, between Zootopia, The Fantastic Mr. Fox, and others, we can’t unsee them. Leave it to this zany podcast to dive into that thread.

For their 47th episode, 25YL film critics, appreciative dads, and eager school teachers Will Johnson and Don Shanahan welcomed actress, filmmaker, and comedienne Lilan Bowden to the show.  Known by many for Andi Mack, Lilan joined the gentlemen to promote her upcoming work in the improvised Netflix whodunnit show Murderville, which debuted on February 3rd. Lilan also brought us her “comfort food” movie by choosing to debate Disney’s foxy animated Robin Hood. Again, who knew animated foxes were so hot? Lilan sure did.
