Mom Can't Cook! A DCOM Podcast

by Luke Westaway & Andy Farrant

Join Luke Westaway and Andy Farrant as they talk about cinema's greatest achievement: Disney Channel Original Movies. From X-TREME rollerblading, to Mermen, to homicidal smart homes, there's something for everyone in these brilliant, baffling films. Also, usually the mom character in the film is unable to cook, and this is considered richly comic. Hence the name.

What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

While on my lunch break I decided to listen to the latest episode of MCC on the Adventures of Food Boy and boy did I regret it. Luke and Andy’s visceral and detailed description of Lucas Grabeel producing pastrami from his food aperture put me right off my delicious chicken sandwich. I may never be able to eat a chicken sandwich without imagining the sound one would make when producing pastrami, in fact I may never be able to eat again. All joking aside, this is absolutely my favorite podcast and I recommend it to anyone that loves to hear grown men tear into movies made for children. But seriously, do not eat while listening to the Adventures of Food Boy episode.

SecretSloth131 · Aug 2026

While Mom Can’t Cook, A DCOM Podcast is the thing I look forward to every single week, I can also attest to the fact that it has, in fact, ruined my life. It’s basically the “having a fake girlfriend in Canada” trope, but with grown-up friends. I constantly quote Andy and Luke to people, and when I try to explain the context for my quotes, it looks like I’ve fabricated two hilarious British men to be my imaginary friends. Everyone just sort of exchanges knowing smiles and sad nods. I’ve also taken to including their British witticisms in my everyday language, which wouldn’t be too much of a problem if I wasn’t a mortician. Now, when an artery I’m trying to raise suddenly makes itself known, I tell the other mortician in the room that the carotid just “popped out of a side hatch.” I cannot count the amount of times I’ve called things “unwholesome,” which I’m not scared to say has become my favorite descriptive word. In addition to a deep-seated distrust of ATMs, milk trucks, and competitive high school sports, I’ve also become unreasonably skittish around anything that could possibly resemble the musical stylings of the Jumping Ship composer, Phil Marshall (or Mars… as I’m sure everyone calls him). Yes, Andy and Luke (who I SWEAR are real people and not my adult imaginary friends) have ruined my life more thoroughly than Fi was ejected from her own show, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. Also, shoutout to Utah listeners, because apparently there are loads of us for some weird reason.

Mortician.Camp · May 2026

I first heard Andy & Luke in The Oxventure Podcast. Then on a fateful day while bored at work, Apple Podcasts recommended this absolute gem! Now I’ve listened to every release they’ve had and no longer know how to fill the monotony of my working day. Thank you for being absolutely hilarious and opening my eyes to things I missed as a child watching DCOMs!

Mr_Romask · Jan 2026

I spend a lot of time in my car. This is my favorite podcast probably ever, and the long episodes are great entertainment on the road, but Andy and Luke have almost gotten me into trouble. During the Camp Rock recap, Andy called Kevin Jonas "the one who looks like a haunted tree." I shrieked so loudly and just missed rear-ending the car in front of me by inches. It's embarrassing to admit, since I consider myself a very safe driver otherwise, but that's just how good the show is. When the Jonas Christmas movie recap came out I purposely did not listen to it in the car, which worked out because I likely would have swerved off the road when they said Joe Jonas was portraying Michael Fassbender in Shame. Love you guys!
