Hiya, pals, and welcome to our 71st straight Mickey Mondays! This is a great place to stop by if you love all things Mickey Mouse! Every Monday, we grab a different Mickey and Friends plush and watch a different piece of Mickey and Friends animation. This week, we’re checking out the classic 1932 short The Whoopee Party!

The Animation: There is virtually no plot to The Whoopee Party, which sees Mickey and Minnie throwing a big party for all their friends. That’s pretty much it! But of course, it’s in the details of the party that we find some really wild, creative visual jokes and moments. It’s also fun to see Goofy, still Dippy Dawg here, slowly-but-surely become the character we all know and love.

While Goofy, Mickey, and Horace work on snacks in the kitchen, with my favorite moment being when Mickey slices the ham to the beat of the music. There’s lots of creative little moments in this scene, including the cute way Mickey slices a cake.

Meanwhile, in the living room, Minnie and Clarabelle are playing up a storm! Everyone’s dancing, and it’s great to see the rubber hose animation style in full swing here. Mickey and the others return with the snacks and join the fun in the living room. Mickey dancing with Patricia Pig is just a joy. It’s so silly! I also love the lamps dancing. Even the furniture gets involved!

There are so many jokes and clever visual touches in this raucous short, where the only words Mickey ever speaks is “Whoopee!” Clarabelle getting back at Goofy is another highlight. And yes, there’s also a very brief joke involving blackface and an Al Jolson song. Obviously, it’s not great to see this.

You can decide for yourself if you’d like to watch the short in the video above. There’s a good introduction here that sets up what you’re going to see later, which I like. Leonard Maltin is a very important name to me when it comes to Disney history! The Whoopee Party is not available on Disney Plus unfortunately.

The Plush: For this week’s Mickey and Friends plush, I wanted something that would tie into the main theme of a party in The Whoopee Party. I think this Disneyland Paris 90th Celebration Mickey Party Plush is perfect for that! I love his shirt. I always think a Mickey plush like this has loads of personality, and for whatever reason I’m a sucker for plushes wearing shirts or sweaters.

And that’s going to do it for this week’s Mickey Mondays episode! Next week, I’m thinking maybe a classic short, but we’ll have to see. Feel free to comment if there’s a specific piece of Mickey and Friends animation you’d like to see sometime. Take care, and I’ll see ya real soon!

Disney Fan Theory: Goofy Goof and George G. Geef

Hello, friends. While I am not big on modern Disney, I still love classic Disney and my favourite character is Goofy. I even enjoy his animated shorts in my adult life. However, I noticed with time, tons fan theories about this character, his history and family tree have come to light. In fact, I have one of my own that I want to share. Before throw it out there though I want to describe Goofy Goof’s character and history vs. George G. Geef’s.

Goofy Goof (the definitive version) is a sweet to a fault, kind and jolly klutz with a heart of gold and tends to have these bouts of wisdom. His sense of style and demeanor is endearingly nerdy and his trademark accessory is his green hat though there are times he doesn’t wear it. His first pet was a grasshopper named Wilbur though it can be assumed that he passed away. Sometime after that, Goofy got married and had his son Maximillian Goof who is more commonly known as Max. Tragically, Goofy’s wife died in a car accident while their son was a still a baby and raised him alone since while taking in his second pet a cat who he named Waffles. By the time Max was about eleven, Goofy moved to Spoonerville and right next door to the Pete family. Considering Waffles is not in the picture when Max is older, it can be assumed that the cat passed away. Later on when Max moves out for college, Goofy also got his own college degree at long last and has gone through many odd jobs over the years. In present day, Max is eighteen while living alone and Goofy has adopted his third pet being a kitten named Mr. Pettibone. Goofy is also officially in a relationship with Clarabelle Cow.

This brings us to a lates 50s to early 60s version of Goofy: George G. Geef. It’s very clear that George is a Goofy, but not THE Goofy. George is still clumsy, whimsical and even makes Goofy’s trademark sounds especially his laugh. However, his personality is much more serious, he has a bit of a temper, he has a slight ego and he is not above doing selfish things like gambling in secret. However, he is ultimately a good person and his sense of style and demeanor has much more finesse than Goofy does and he works in a office to this day. George does not have his two teeth exposed, he has a flesh coloured face, a black nose and black hair with black ears which he usually styles to be hidden most of the time while his body is flesh coloured all over. When George was single, he took in his first pet which a puppy named Bowser who eventually grew up and was pretty naughty. Later on, George got married (and it can be assumed that by then, Bowser passed away as he is not in the picture) and eventually had a son named Goerge G. Geef Jr. who everyone calls Junior. Like George, Junior styles his ears in such a way that they are hidden, he has a flesh coloured face and a flesh coloured body. However, his nose is pink and his hair is red which are traits he inherited from his mother. When Junior got older, the Geef family took in both a cat and a dog though their names were never specified. It is also hinted that George’s marriage got a bit rocky at one point as Mrs. Geef began to flirt with other men, but soon after, it was hinted that they worked things out and are happily married while Junior is as last seen in elementary school.

Now... I know the Disney wiki lists these two as being the same character, but I don’t I need to explain how that doesn’t make any sense as I don’t even need to list how different these two are. However, Disney insists that these two exist in the same universe and in the same timeline.

I know there is another fan theory out there that states that the Goofy who is Max’s father is actually George’s son grown up, but I think I don’t think that’s likely. While I can confirm that people who are redheads or blondes in their youth can wind up as brunettes in their adult life, I don’t think Goofy is Junior grown up because his last name is “Goof” not “Geef” and he’s too proud of his dad and family in general to be the type of person who changes his last name. Also, when he talks about his home life and childhood and all flashbacks of his youth indicate that not only was Goofy very different from Junior, when it was the 70s, Junior was a child while Goofy was a teenager.

This brings me at long last to MY fan theory to what Goofy and George are to each other. I think George is Goofy’s uncle. Specifically, Goofy’s grandfather is the brother of George’s mother meaning that they are also separated by a generation. Goofy did mention that he had a big family that was close nit. I say this because the timeline makes it so that it makes sense this way and because this is the only sensible way Goofy and George can exist at the same time while still both being Goofys. In fact, I don’t think a lot of the Goofys are the same person, but that’s a theory for another day.

Anyway, that is just my fun little theory, What is yours? Thank you for reading and as always, stay safe.
