Mirabel Madrigal is a champion in her own right just for her hair game. In Season 2 episode 4 of Champion Casters, Michael and Joe are joined by the EIC of But Why Tho: A Geek Community, Kate Sanchez, to talk about the family drama in Encanto. We discuss why Mirabel is such a likable character, in spite of falling into a "non-powered" trope. We also talk about why the Madrigals are not a dysfunctional family, but a totally normal one that just has a lot of secrets. Encanto really surprised us, especially considering Disney's track record on family narratives. Adding a new superpower to our trivia game, we've included a new mechanic for when guests appear on our show! Make sure to grab a cup for this episode because we're gonna spill a bit of tea on our own families, as well.
