Show Notes
Pom Poko (1994), written and directed by Isao Takahata, focuses on tanuki, Japanese raccoon dogs, who in folklore are known for their shape shifting abilities. Unfortunately in the English dub of the movie, they are incorrectly known as raccoons. Join our three hosts and our guest, Dr Becca Tarsa, to find out who doesn't love these adorable little scamps.
