In Da Club...we all Mouseketeers (Our October Kids' Icon...The Mickey Mouse Club!!!)

Not every childhood icon had a pair of mouse ears, but this one helped launch the careers of some of the biggest stars of the ’90s and beyond! In this Childhood Icon Shoutout episode, we're heading back to Sam's Disney Channel days to revisit *The All-New Mickey Mouse Club*. You know it and you love it! We’re talking about the late-’80s and ’90s revival that brought a whole new generation of Mouseketeers to the screen :) And who knows? Maybe watching Britney, Justin, Christina, and their fellow Mouseketeers helped inspire a few future performers to chase their own dreams! Follow Sam and Izzy down memory lane to celebrate not just the celebrities the show helped launch, but the magic of children’s media that let young audiences see themselves as performers, storytellers, and entertainers, too! Whether you grew up watching *MMC* after school or you’re discovering the show for the first time, grab your Mouseketeer ears and get ready to sing, dance, laugh, and reminisce with us. Now let’s get into it! Resources from this episode: A brief history of the Mickey Mouse Club The All New Mickey Mouse Club Debut!
