About this episode

This episode explores the love stories of Tarzan and George of the Jungle, comparing their impacts on Jane and Ursula.

This week we’re crowning the king of the jungle and unpacking everything about Tarzan and George of the Jungle. This episode pits the love stories of Jane & Tarzan against Ursula & George. Join Zama as we ask what are the similarities between these two, how do these stories change the lives of Ursula & Jane, and the real reason why we still gravitate towards these wild men today. Our battle goes further in this week’s Who’s Your Fave that asks where the real savages are. Be sure to follow us on Twitter @ StarringCupid for more content and pod updates. Happy Valentine’s Day!
