    How Mufasa: The Lion King Got His Scar
    Feb 14 2026

    Mufasa is a fairly new film to have so many theories but, yet, that doesn't stop fans from coming up with them. In this episode we take a look at the future king's past and try to determine a few other things along the way. For instance, was Mufasa unknowingly royalty? We also discuss if he was the one to drive the hyenas away, what made them leave in the first place, and if Scar is just a Fight Club type of personality to Mufasa. Stick with us on this final journey to the Pride Lands.
