This week, we're not dead, we're pining for Python! This episode emphasizes that if you only know “Holy Grail”, you are really missing out on the full history, spectrum, and scope of everything those Monty Python boys (and girls! Let's not forget Carol Cleveland and the lovely Aimi MacDonald!) gave us as outrageous comedy from before Flying Circus and since. Today's root beer is IBC.

If Ferris Bueller takes us on a tour of the fun and glamorous side of Chicago, Chris Parker and company show us it's dark underbelly, while still maintaining the comedy and silliness that 80's teen flicks are known for. Whether you are wondering if you should spike your Tab with Drano, nurture your crush on Thor, or if maybe you could sell Daryl, just remember: “Nobody leaves this place without singin’ the blues!” Today's root beer is Anchor with Ginger.

59:17

Linkin Park's third album arrived after delays and side projects from members of the band, but arrived with “honed, metallic pop with a hip hop stride and a wake-up kick”. “Minutes” is a roller coaster of emotion, including vicious anger, political rants, forlorn musings on lost love, and a heartbreaking final request that came to pass far too soon.

For millennia, man has yearned to fly, and has attempted it with varying levels of success. Whether it be with homemade cardboard wings, or by detonating several kegs of TNT under our derriere. Regardless of how we finally took to the skies, our fantasies involving flight can be found in nearly every fantasy or science fiction narrative. From Icarus and Peter Pan, to Iron Man and Neo, we've expressed our jealousies of birds, bugs, and banshees. Today's root beer is Sioux City.

Before the parody “Scary Movie”, before the parody “Galaxy Quest”, before the parody “Spaceballs”, came the parody of “Zero Hour!” Surely, we're talking about the film “Airport”. No, we're talking about the film “Airplane!”..... and don't call me Shirley. This classic lampoon of disaster flicks is ridiculous but funny and launched a plethora of waana-be spoofs. Today's root beer is long-sought-after 1919! Intro and Outro music by Stockmusic331 on Pond5 Send us a text…
