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.

I didn’t know how much I needed this Podcast until I heard it. The ultimate comfort listen, Andy and Luke hit it out of the park everytime with more in depth analysis and thought than probably went into many of these movies. Hilarious from start to finish, keep up the amazing work fellas.

PuttingThePalInPalidan · Dec 2024

I learned about this podcast through a comment on the OX video about the Borderlands movie. I’ve been obsessed with it since I started listening. I recounted Now You See It to my girlfriend, and she insisted that we watch it. She was a little high while watching, and at several points in the movie, she had me stop to confirm that she was following correctly. Every single time, the movie was in fact that batsh*t and it wasn’t that she was too high to understand. I’m glad I listened to the podcast before watching so I could understand what was going on. I love listening to 2-and-a-half hour-long recaps of movies that are 90 minutes. Every second is hilarious. I haven’t shut up to my friends about the two British men in their thirties talking about DCOMS. Looking forward to Halloweentown 3 :)

Selen1735 · Sep 2024

I can't believe I only discovered this show last month. Andy and Luke are great and they're having so much fun talking about DCOMs and it's so really entertaining to listen to them do so... Even if I likely won't watch one myself. I've already listened to half the back episodes and my frothing demand for new episodes increases every time I finish another.

JWPortland · Jun 2024

I’ve only just listened to a couple of episodes for this podcast, but it’s fantastic and I’m definitely going to listen to all the rest. I knew these two from Outside Xbox, so I already knew I’d have fun, and I was proven right. There’s a particular kind of comedy where someone comes up with an absurd concept and describes it as having happened with a completely earnest deadpan that absolutely cracks me up, so you can imagine my delight when it turned out that Luke and Andy do this bit literally every chance they get regarding what happens in the movies. If you’re looking for exactly the comedy style I’ve described, please consider listening!
