We are in shock that it has taken us this long to cover the cult classic that is Monty Python's Life of Brian (1979). We have Rslaugesen over on Patreon to thank for pointing out this glaring oversight.Once we got started, it was hard for us to stop talking about the Life of Brian. British comedy was a staple of our childhoods and Monty Python was one of our favourites. It was a treat to follow the development of this movie from Jesus Christ: Lust for Glory to a Sliding Doors-style story of Brian Cohen, born in the manger over from Christ. Whilst Monty Python were probably trying to make a parody of 1970s Britain rather than a historically accurate portrait of first century CE Judea, we still found this film intriguing. From wolf's nipples to imperialism, we take you through all the best Roman scenes… and perhaps a few non-Roman scenes as well. Who can resist talking about the Virgin Mandy?Part of the appeal of Life of Brian is the fact that it is not afraid to make fun of the Romans (or anyone) and shows a much less glamorous side of the empire. Quite the contrast to the epics of the 1950s and 1960s.Things to Look Out ForFar too many ‘reenactments' of our favourite momentsThe Biggus Dickus sceneWhat Have the Romans Ever Done For Us? Not as much as this scene claims!The People's Front of Judea in action!The famous BBC2 interview with John Cleese and Michael PalinThe hilarious parody of the BBC2 interview on Not the Nine O'Clock NewsDr G's excitement upon spotting the frescoes from the Villa of the MysteriesComedies don't always stand the test of time. We can spot some awkward moments in the film, but overall, we think Life of Brian stands the test of time. Forty-five years after it's release, we would love to know whether you agree!For full shownotes and transcript, head on over to our website: https://partialhistorians.com/2024/09/19/special-episode-monty-pythons-life-of-brian-1979/For our full show notes and edited transcripts, head on over to https://partialhistorians.com/Support the showPatreonKo-FiRead our booksRex: The Seven Kings of RomeYour Cheeky Guide to the Roman Empire Hosted on Acast.

Dana and Tom with new guests Heather Stewart (@heatherjstewart) and Ryan Luis Rodriguez (One Track Mind podcast, Reels of Justice podcast) discuss the religious comedy, Life of Brian (1979): directed by Terry Jones, written by Monty Python, starring Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Michael Palin, Terry Gilliam, and Eric Idle.Plot Summary: Ah, splendid! Picture this, if you will: the bustling streets of ancient Judea, a land rife with political turmoil, religious fervor, and the occasional stoning. Into this chaos, on the very same night as a certain well-known savior, is born a rather unremarkable chap named Brian Cohen.Now, Brian, through no fault of his own, is continuously mistaken for the Messiah. This hapless fellow bumbles his way through a series of increasingly ludicrous adventures. From joining the People's Front of Judea (not to be confused with the Judean People's Front—splitters!) to unintentionally starting his own religious movement, Brian's life is a whirlwind of mistaken identity, misunderstandings, and the utterly absurd.As if that weren't enough, he's pursued by Roman centurions, swooned over by fanatical followers, and lectured by his domineering mother ("He's not the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy!"). All this, while Brian desperately tries to carve out a normal life in a world that seems determined to turn him into something he most definitely is not.So, in essence, dear friends, "Life of Brian" is a satirical romp through history, skewering sacred cows and poking fun at the foibles of humanity with the kind of irreverent wit and cheekiness that only Monty Python can deliver. Quite a lark, wouldn't you say?Guests:Heather Stewart@heatherjstewart on IG, X, LetterboxdRyan Luis RodriguezHost of One Track Mind Podcast (IG, X, Letterboxd)Co-Host of Reels of Justice Podcast (IG, X)Chapters:0:00 Intro1:47 Getting to Know Our Guests13:42 Relationship(s) to Life of Brian19:49 What is Life of Brian About?22:49 Is Satire Healthy for Democracies?25:28 What is the Legacy of the Pythons?30:02 Plot Summary31:50 Did You Know?33:44 First Break34:25 Where You Can Find Our Guests37:01 Ask Dana Anything51:09 Best Performance(s)01:06:05 Best/Favorite/Indelible Scene(s)01:18:04 Second Break01:18:49 In Memoriam01:19:54 Best/Funniest Lines01:25:38 The Stanley Rubric: Legacy01:32:37 The Stanley Rubric: Impact/Significance01:39:04 The Stanley Rubric: Novelty01:44:48 The Stanley Rubric: Classicness01:54:01 The Stanley Rubric: Rewatchability01:58:24 The Stanley Rubric: Audience Score and Total...

Kliph is a fantastic writer who has been here before discussing his books, The Comedians and We Had A Little Real Estate Problem. He is here to talk about his spectacular and, in my opinion, mandatory reading new book, Outrageous, A History Of Showbiz and the Culture Wars. It's one of my top five books of this year, just phenomenal and I'm really excited for you to hear him talk about it.  Also, actor Steven Weber is here. You know Steven from Wings, the TV miniseries The Shining, Chicago Hope and so much more. He is also a hilarious guy, a monster kid, and a terrific storyteller, so happy to have finally nabbed him to be on. Steven Weber is here.  True Tales From Weirdsville takes the idea of no good deed going unpunished to a whole new level, it's the making of Monty Python's Life Of Brian.
