David KantorskiGUEST

Josh GelernterHOST
I don't know exactly how to describe it.
Josh GelernterHOST
It has the inherent charm of, like, Herbie from Herbie, the, The Love Bug.
Josh GelernterHOST
But w- in a, in a also sort of a forceful, muscular way.
Dan GelernterHOST
Yes, but you could give this car a great big hug, couldn't you? So-
Alex KendrickGUEST
And, um, but I, uh, I occasionally would be allowed to go see a movie in the theater, mostly the family-friendly films.
Alex KendrickGUEST
And, uh, and I remember seeing some of the, you know, Swiss Family Robinson, Herbie the Love Bug, some of those, where I was like, "Wow, I wa- I wanna do this one day." And so, um, uh, as brothers, the three of us would do skits and things at home or around the neighborhood, or even getting involved in the church, uh, skits and musicals, things that we did.
Alex KendrickGUEST
Uh, Shannon, my older brother, was more behind the scenes.
Alex KendrickGUEST
He loved, um, the technical aspects of how things came together, and Stephen and I were more the interacting with the people, uh, laughter or drama or whatever.
Donna MillsHOST

Rob WhitesideHOST
It is so funny that you are, because I feel like this is a very mysterious movie in the Disney archives.
Rob WhitesideHOST
This is not The Love Bug.
Rob WhitesideHOST
This is not, you know, Little Mermaid.
Rob WhitesideHOST

I loved Herbie as a kid.
LianaHOST
Oh my God, that movie where he got cut in half, I was so freaked out as a kid-
LianaHOST
Lanterns is amazing.
EdHOST
We can get to that lat- Lanterns is fantastic.
EdHOST
But I, it ob- I mean, obviously, since Herbie the Love Bug had no extra technology, chances are the dog was possessed by s- or, the dog, the car was possessed by Satan or something.
Dave HouseGUEST
And actually one of the original Herbie's is probably five miles away from me right now.
Dave HouseGUEST
So there's a guy called Luke who runs a VW shop who owns one of the original Herbie's from the love bug.
Dave HouseGUEST
So I've actually got a photo on my wall next to me of my daughter with that original Herbie.
Dave HouseGUEST
And that's what kind of got her interested in it as well because she watched the
