Superstar doesn't even come close to encapsulate the guest creator for this episode. Since his last appearance in the tiger den, Tony Fleecs has been nothing short of a force of nature within the cultural spectrum and now he's back! And we're all better for it.Coming off the massively successful “Stray Dogs” from Image Comics, Tony is hitting the shelves with two beautifully-wild creator owned series: “Uncanny Valley” from Boom Studios and “Feral” from Image Comics.In a familiar vein to its predecessor, Stray Dogs, “Feral” softens your guard with that Don Bluth styling before sucking you down into the darkness of mystery and horror. It brings a bit of zest into a genre that sometimes becomes a bit structurally predictable within the comic medium. This time around the emphasis is cats. As a trio of indoor felines get stuck in the wilds of the outdoors . Already underprepared and overwhelmed things only escalate due to a rabies outbreak. American Tale meets Walking dead? Count BTR in! One of the beloved elements of the series is the continuation of variant covers paying homage to cult classic horror film posters and VHS covers. Not only proven to be a marketing success, but has quickly become a fan-favorite tradition with Fleecs' pet-thrillers at Image.Tony's other creator own project that is taking to the shelves alongside “Feral” is “Uncanny Valley.” And what a perfect name for such a unique and bold concept. If unfamiliar with the 70's hypothesis; “Uncanny Valley” is a proposed phenomenon theorizing the relation between the human likeness of an object and a viewer's affinity toward it.Imagine you're a kid… a kid that just doesn't quite fit in. Constantly haunted by the sensation, even visions, that you are different. It's a feeling that most of us, as people, experienced at some point in our youth. Then one day an unintroduced family member shows up; say it's your grandpa. Only he's a 2d cartoon character resembling Yosemite Sam and yeah, you are apart of something greater than you could of ever thought.The concept is bold and it works seamlessly. With variations in art styling, the reader is very quickly immersed into this very real world with very real people. So even when the cartoon surreal is interjected it's not only shocking and intriguing the high stakes still remain. It's brilliant in concept and execution. I can only imagine a film/tv deal is in the near future for “Uncanny Valley.”On top of the this Tony has other projects that are sharing space on the shelves; the on going series “Local Man” from Image Comics and a new Army of Darkness series “Forever” from Dynamite. It's the summer of FLEECS, so get to your local comic shop and celebrate his creative power! -T A note: The “NOW” is the resurgence of the independent creator through crowd sourcing and self-publishing availability. As the veil gets pulled back ever further and the predatory practices of corporate models get revealed, it is more and more important to support those who actually create the stories and art that we as consumers enjoy. So SUPPORT INDIE PROJECTS and their CREATORS. Help make the indies the mainstream. Even the smallest of gestures can be of the biggest help.Have you experienced the elusive and majestic energy of the Blue Tiger? Had a sighting in the wilderness of the eternal forest?

S2E12: Blood in the Water Blood may be in the water, but the writing is all over the walls with the bizarre writers' choices in this epsiode, according to Maggie. The girls talk about earlier jobs and we discover one of them has never been fired and one of them has been fired twice! Maggie describes how some days are better suited for a kidnapping. And Yosemite Samanda says her and Harvey would definitely exchange words if he never saw Big Daddy Cats.
S2E10: Recapping: High Noon In this perfectly timed episode, we learn how Amanda used to be Yosemite Samanda in a former life and how Maggie is still concerned there aren't any pictures of King Walruses on the internet. The girls settle on the dime bag origin story and account for actual highness when turning cents in to dollars. They both agree that NO ONE walks thru the house to pick up pizza in a bed sheet unless it's in the movies or tv. And they discuss how F. Scoot Fucksgerald (or maybe Hemingway?) might have been on to something with his unconventional writing method. Thanks, Social Studies!
What did you think of Senator Cringey Britt -- I mean, Senator Katie Britt -- and her response to the State of the Union. Powerful? Or deeply weird? Thank goodness Scarlett Johansson came to our rescue by showcasing everything wrong with Katie's speech. Also, is your street living in perfect harmony? (As in - the old Coca Cola commercial). No matter all the diverse political tastes showing up all across the board, people on Claire's street seem to be okalee-dokalee with each other, no matter what flag or signs or colors are showing up on each of her neighbors' yards. Well. Except maybe Claire might feel a little bit extra careful around one neighbor who she's pretty sure would get all Yosemite Sam on her if she accidentally stepped a half inch onto his yard. We're pretty sure, though, he'd be ok with her dog dropping a deuce on his driveway...or not. Learn more about your ad choices.

This week on "The Friars Club Podcast," Joe chats with Noel Blanc, the son of legendary voice actor and Friar Mel Blanc about the 1961 California Friars tribute to Mel following a near-fatal car accident, his father's friendship and collaboration with Friars Jack Benny and George Burns, and his legendary career as the voice behind cartoon characters such as Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Woody Woodpecker, Yosemite Sam, Barney Rubble, and Porky Pig. Plus, Noel talks about the politics of cigarettes during the Golden Age of Radio, attending the Burns & Allen radio show as a kid, his father's friendship with Friar Johnny Carson, the eccentricity of Paul Frees (the voice of the Pillsbury Doughboy), and his own near-death experience with Kirk Douglas.
"Marijuana Dispensaries and Predictive Football: A Quirky Comparison"Larry is excited about Michigan's win over Alabama and in tribute to their upcoming January 8th college football championship game against Washington he features a Grateful Dead concert from January 8th, 1978. He detail the song "Jack Straw" and its history, especially focusing on the singer distribution due to Jerry Garcia's laryngitis during the San Diego show.The conversation veers into the significance of the songs "Lazy Lightning" and "Supplication" within the Grateful Dead's repertoire, reminiscing about experiencing these songs live. It briefly touches on personal events, birthdays, and music preferences.The host humorously correlates the predicted football game winner to the number of Grateful Dead performances and marijuana dispensaries in Michigan and Washington. They discuss cannabis-related legislation and the market dynamics in these states, concluding with light-hearted references to personal travels and cannabis availability across regions.Produced by PodConx Grateful DeadJanuary 8, 1978Golden Hall Community ConcourseSan Diego, CAGrateful Dead Live at Golden Hall, Community Concourse on 1978-01-08 : Free Borrow & Streaming : Internet Archive Jerry has laryngitis so he did not singDonna filled in for him INTRO: Jack Straw Track #2 0:07 – 1:38 Not on any studio album. Featured on Europe ‘72 First time played: October 19, 1971, Minneapolis (Keith Godchaux's first show) Last played: July 8, 1995, Soldier Field, Chicago Total times played = 476 (No. 11 on list of all time songs played) SHOW No. 1: Lazy Lightning>Supplication Track #8: 3:00 – end and then straight intoTrack #9: 0:00 – 1:15 DAVID DODD: The pair of songs was recorded on the Kingfish album, with Bob Weir as a member of the band. Barlow notes that he wrote the song in Mill Valley in October 1975. The two tracks opened the album, which was released in March 1976. The Grateful Dead first played the pair in concert on June 3, 1976, at the Paramount Theater in Portland, Oregon. That show also included the first performances of “Might As Well,” “Samson and Delilah,” and “The Wheel.” “Lazy Lightning” was always followed in concert by “Supplication,” and the final performance of the two songs took place on Halloween, 1984, at the Berkeley Community Theater. “Supplication” was played by itself, according to DeadBase X, on one occasion subsequently, although it was also played as an instrumental jam more frequently over the years. The final “Supplication” was played 597 shows after the last “Lazy Lightning>Supplication,” on May 22, 1993 at the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California. Interestingly, “Supplication” was played one other time separately from “Lazy Lightning,” on September 24, 1976, when it was sandwiched in the middle of a “Playing in the Band.” a very strong case could be made that “Supplication” is no more a separate song from “Lazy Lightning” than “Sunshine Daydream” is from “Sugar Magnolia.” It's a coda, carrying forward the same themes—only the form of the verse has changed. Lazy Lightning – 111 total times playedSupplication – 123 total times played SHOW No. 2: Estimated Prophet Track #14 2:35 – 4:15 Weir/BarlowReleased on Terrapin Station released on July 27, 1977 (first studio album released by the band after it returned to live touring after its 1975 hiatus. DAVID DODD: “Estimated Prophet” was first performed by the Grateful Dead on February 26, 1977, at the Swing Auditorium in San Bernardino, California. The Dead also premiered “Terrapin Station” at that show. They played it 390 times in the years that followed, with the longest time between performances being 15 shows—mostly it stayed at the every third or fourth show rank. Its final performance was on June 28, 1995, at The Palace in Auburn Hills, Michigan. It appeared on Terrapin Station, released July 27, 1977. Blair Jackson quotes Weir, discussing the song, in his biography of the band: “According to Weir, he and Barlow wrote the song from the perspective of a crazy, messianic zealot, a type which one invariably encounters in Deadhead crowds now and again. As Weir explains: ‘The basis of it is this guy I see at nearly every backstage door. There's always some guy who's taken a lot of dope and he's really bug-eyed, and he's having some kind of vision. He's got a rave he's got to deliver.' “ This is one of those songs, and there are quite a number of them in the Dead's repertoire, in which a not-entirely-sympathetic character is brought to life, and, in the course of being brought to life, is made more sympathetic. I've always thought this was a big strong suit of theire songs, whether in “Wharf Rat” or in “Jack Straw”; whether in “Candyman” or “Friend of the Devil.” Not only is it a recurring trope in the lyrics, but I think it is key to understanding the whole body of the songs, and perhaps literature generally. SHOW No. 3: The Other One Track # 16 13:30 – 15:07 The imagery conjured up by Bob Weir, in his portion of the suite, “That's It for the Other One,” on Anthem of the Sun, is clearly and intentionally a psychedelic ode to the Pranksters and all that entailed. Whether the singer was “escapin' through the lily fields,” or “tripping through the lily fields,” or “skipping through the lily fields” (all versions of the line sung by Weir at various points, according to several extremely careful listeners), the fact is that it was akin to Alice's rabbit hole, because of where it led. “The bus came by and I got on...that's when it all began.”That line captures so much, in so many different ways, in so few words, that it is a model of what poetry can do—over time, and in a wide variety of circumstances, the line takes on a wide spectrum of association and meaning. The Dead, of course, were quite literally on THE bus, along with Cowboy Neal (see earlier blog entry on “Cassidy”) and Ken Kesey and Ken Babbs and Mountain Girl and many others whose names are legend among our tribe. What must that have been like? Surely, worthy of a song or two. And Weir came up with a couple of winners, between “The Other One” and “Cassidy.” There is something wonderfully cartoonish about the scenes described in the lyrics. A “Spanish lady” hands the singer a rose, which then starts swirling around and explodes—kind of like Yosemite Sam left holding a lit firecracker, leaving a smoking crater of his mind. The police arrest him for having a smile on his face despite the bad weather—clearly, this kid is doing something illegal. Weir's interview with David Gans (along with Phil Lesh) cited in The Complete Annotated Grateful Dead Lyrics refers to a particular incident:Gans: Now, I remember a version from a little bit earlier, maybe late in '67, you had a different set of lyrics; the first verse is “the heat come ‘round and busted me”...and then there was a second verse that was about “the heat in the jail weren't very smart,” or somethin' like that...Weir: Yeah, that was after my little...Lesh: Water balloon episode?Weir: I got him good. I was on the third floor of our place in the Haight-Ashbury. And there was this cop who was illegally searching a car belonging to a friend of ours, down on the street—the cops used to harass us every chance they got. They didn't care for the hippies back then. And so I had a water balloon, and what was I gonna do with this water balloon? Come on.Lesh: Just happened to have a water balloon, in his hand... Ladies and gentlemen...Weir: And so I got him right square on the head, and...Lesh: A prettier shot you never saw.Weir: ...and he couldn't tell where it was comin' from, but then I had to go and go downstairs and walk across the street and just grin at him...and sorta rub it in a little bit.Gans: Smilin' on a cloudy day. I understand now.Weir: And at that point, he decided to hell with due process of law, this kid's goin' to jail. So, as to the debut. If we take Weir and Lesh at their word, that the first performance of the song as it now stands coincided with the night Neal Cassady died, in the early morning hours of February 4, 1968. And sure enough, there is a performance of “The Other One” on February 3, 1968, whose verses correspond to the verses as we all know them, for the first time, at the Crystal Ballroom in Portland, Oregon. The song was a fixture in the repertoire from then on, performed at least 586 times that we know of. The only year in which it was not listed as being performed was 1975, the hiatus year. Part of the suite of songs, That's It For The Other One from Anthem of the Sun. Made up of four sections: "Cryptical Envelopment", "Quadlibet for Tenderfeet", "The Faster We Go, the Rounder We Get" (the part everyone knows as “the other one”), and "We Leave the Castle". Like other tracks on the album, is a combination of studio and live performances mixed together to create the final product. appears that way on Anthem of the Sun, bracketed by Garcia's “Cryptical Envelopment.” But it stands alone most of the time in performance—“Cryptical” was dropped completely from 1973 through 1984, reappeared for five performances in 1985 (the 20th anniversary period—it was broken out following a lapse of 791 shows at the June 16, 1985 Greek Theater show (I WAS THERE!!) in Berkeley), then disappeared again for the remainder of the band's careerI. "Cryptical Envelopment" (Garcia)[edit]"Cryptical Envelopment" is one of the few Grateful Dead songs with lyrics written by Garcia. It was performed from 1967 to 1971 (when it was then dropped), and brought back for a few performances in 1985. Post-Grateful Dead bands such as Dead & Company have returned to performing the song, sometimes as a standalone track separate from the rest of the suite.II. "Quadlibet for Tenderfeet" (Garcia, Kreutzmann, Lesh, McKernan, Weir)[edit]"Quadlibet for Tenderfeet" is a short jam section linking "Cryptical Envelopment" and "The Faster We Go, the Rounder We Get". Transitions between studio and live performances are very audible during this section.III. "The Faster We Go, the Rounder We Get" (Kreutzmann, Weir)[edit]One of the few Grateful Dead songs to have lyrics written by Weir, "The Faster We Go, the Rounder We Get" became one of the Dead's most-played songs (being performed a known 586 times[2]) and most popular vehicles for improvisation, with some performances reaching 30+ minutes in length. The song's lyrics reference the influence of the Merry Pranksters and in particular Neal Cassady.[2] Additionally, the line "the heat came 'round and busted me for smilin' on a cloudy day" refers to a time Weir was arrested for throwing a water balloon at a cop.[2] This section ends with a reprise of "Cryptical Envelopment".IV. "We Leave the Castle" (Constanten)[edit]The only Grateful Dead composition written by Tom Constanten, "We Leave the Castle" is an avant-garde piece featuring prepared piano and other studio trickery.[While the "We Leave the Castle" portion of the song was never performed live by the band, the first three sections were all featured in concert to differing extents. "Cryptical Envelopment", written and sung by Jerry Garcia, was performed from 1967 to 1971, when it was then dropped aside from a select few performances in 1985. "The Faster We Go, the Rounder We Get", written by Bill Kreutzmann and Bob Weir and sung by Weir, became one of the band's most frequently performed songs in concert (usually denoted as simply "The Other One"). The Other one– performed 549 times First played: Oct. 31, 1967 at Winterland, S.F. Last played: July 8, 1995, Soldier Field, Chicago That's It For The Other One – performed 79 times First played: October 22, 1967 at Winterland, S.F.

SHOW No. 4: Truckin' Track # 17 4:22 – 6:03 The lyrics were written under pressure, in the studio, during the recording of American Beauty (Nov. 1970) (released as a single backed by Ripple in Jan. 1971), with Hunter running back and forth with hastily-written verses that somehow, despite the fact that were purpose-written on the spot, seem to have some pretty good staying power. There are rumors that he originally wrote “Garlands of neon and flashing marquees out on Main Street” as an intentionally hard-to-sing line, just to enjoy watching Weir try to wrap his mouth around them, eventually relenting and substituting “arrows of neon,” just to make it possible to sing.The music credit is shared by Jerry Garcia, Bob Weir, and Phil Lesh. Hunter gets the credit for the lyrics. And Hunter took the bare bones outline of some of the band's adventures and misadventures and fleshed them out with memorable features, highlighting their trips around the country with specific references to places and occurrences. In the process, he came up with a chorus consisting of a couple of phrases that are now, eternally, in the cultural psyche: “Sometimes the light's all shining on me / Other times I can barely see. Lately it occurs to me / What a long strange trip it's been.”At some point, Hunter was accused of using a cliché in that final phrase of the chorus. When something you make up becomes such a commonly-used turn of phrase that your own invention of it is accused of being cliché, that's some measure of wordsmithing success, I would say. Truckin'” was first performed on August 18, 1970, at the Fillmore West. The show opened with an acoustic set, and “Truckin'” was the first song. Other firsts that night included “Ripple,” “Brokedown Palace,” and “Operator.” The song was performed 532 times, placing it at number 8 in the list of most-played songs, with the final performance on July 6, 1995, at Riverport Amphitheatre in Maryland Heights, Missouri. OUTRO: Johnny B. Goode Track #19 1:10 – 2:51 Johnny B. Goode" is a song by American musician Chuck Berry, written and sung by Berry in 1958. Released as a single in 1958, it peaked at number two on the Hot R&B Sides chart and number eight on its pre-Hot 100 chart.[1] The song remains a staple of early and later rock music."Johnny B. Goode" is considered one of the most recognizable songs in the history of popular music. Credited as "the first rock & roll hit about rock & roll stardom",[2] it has been covered by various other artists and has received several honors and accolades. These include being ranked 33rd on Rolling Stones's 2021 version[3] and 7th on the 2004 version of the "500 Greatest Songs of All Time"[2][4] and included as one of the 27 songs on the Voyager Golden Record, a collection of music, images, and sounds designed to serve as a record of humanity.Written by Berry in 1955, the song is about a semi-literate "country boy" from the New Orleans area, who plays a guitar "just like ringing a bell", and who might one day have his "name in lights".[5] Berry acknowledged that the song is partly autobiographical and that the original lyrics referred to Johnny as a "colored boy", but he changed it to "country boy" to ensure radio play.[6] As well as suggesting that the guitar player is good, the title hints at autobiographic elements, because Berry was born at 2520 Goode Avenue, in St. Louis.[5]The song was initially inspired by Johnnie Johnson, the regular piano player in Berry's band,[7] but developed into a song mainly about Berry himself. Johnson played on many recordings by Berry, but for the Chess recording session Lafayette Leake played the piano, along with Willie Dixon on bass and Fred Below on drums.[5][8] The session was produced by Leonard and Phil Chess.[8] The guitarist Keith Richards later suggested that the song's chords are more typical of compositions written for piano than for guitar.[9]The opening guitar riff of "Johnny B. Goode" borrows from the opening single-note solo on Louis Jordan's "Ain't That Just Like a Woman" (1946), played by guitarist Carl HoganA cover version is featured in the film Back to the Future (1985), when the lead character Marty McFly, played by actor Michael J. Fox, performs it at a high school dance.Played 283 times, almost always as an encore or show closer (back in the days where there were no encores)First played on Sept. 7, 1969 at Family Dog on the Great Highway, S.F.Last played on April 5, 1995 at Birmingham-Jefferson Civic Center Coliseum in Birmingham, AL .Produced by PodConx Deadhead Cannabis Show - https://podconx.com/podcasts/deadhead-cannabis-showLarry Mishkin - https://podconx.com/guests/larry-mishkinRob Hunt - https://podconx.com/guests/rob-huntJay Blakesberg - https://podconx.com/guests/jay-blakesbergSound Designed by Jamie Humiston - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jamie-humiston-91718b1b3/Recorded on Squadcast

Kennesaw Police Enforce New Regulations on Holiday Light Display Following Teen's Death Cobb Superintendent Justifies $1.3M Expenditure on Redistricting Lawsuit And a Tragic Incident in South Cobb: Car Strikes and Kills 76-Year-Old Woman All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! BREAK: CU of GA STORY 1: Police to Regulate Holiday Light Display After Teen Killed in Kennesaw The death of a Harrison High School student, Olivia Pugh, who was struck by a car while crossing a road after leaving a holiday light display in Kennesaw, has prompted local law enforcement to regulate the event. The display, known as Lights of Joy, has been a popular attraction for over 25 years, but authorities are now requiring organizers to obtain a special events permit and submit a traffic plan. Pugh's tragic incident has led to increased safety measures, including the hiring of police officers to manage traffic during the event. The organizers plan to charge entry fees to cover the costs and enhance safety measures. STORY 2: Cobb Superintendent Defends $1.3M Cost of Redistricting Lawsuit The Cobb County School District has spent nearly $1.3 million on legal costs defending its school board map, which was recently struck down by a federal judge following a lawsuit alleging racial discrimination. The judge ordered the Georgia General Assembly to pass a new map by Jan. 10. The district, planning to appeal, defended the spending, calling the lawsuit "frivolous" and arguing that someone had to refute the accusations. The legal battle and its costs have sparked controversy, with Democrats criticizing the district's messaging and Republicans accusing the elections board of colluding with left-wing activists. STORY 3: 76-Year-Old Woman Fatally Struck by Car in South Cobb A tragic incident occurred in Cobb County, Georgia, where a 76-year-old Austell woman, Rosa Moore, was killed when struck by a Honda Civic while crossing South Gordon Road near Riverside Elementary School. The driver, 27-year-old Amanie Davis, and a passenger were in the vehicle when the accident happened around 6:45 p.m. Moore was pronounced dead at the scene, and the investigation is ongoing. Authorities urge anyone with additional information to contact investigators at 770-499-3987. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

Currently serving as the head of school at Southlake Christian Academy in Huntersville, N.C., Dr. Kerlin brings strategic thinking and team-building skills to lead Mount Paran Christian School to new heights. The announcement comes after the resignation of the previous head of school, Tim Wiens, in April. With a background in theology, education, and administration, Dr. Kerlin holds a Ph.D. in Historical Theology from Baylor University and an MBA from Samford University. Mount Paran Christian School is a non-denominational college preparatory institution located near Kennesaw Mountain. STORY 5: Sheriff Surprises Bryant Elementary Kindergartners with Christmas gifts Sheriff Craig Owens and the Cobb County Sheriff's Office surprised kindergartners at Bryant Elementary School with Christmas gifts. The sheriff distributed toys and activity books featuring a cartoon version of himself, aiming to bring joy to the children. Owens expressed the desire for the kids to have fun, and the event was a reward for the students' hard work during their initial months in school. The children's delighted reactions and smiles were the highlight of the day for Sheriff Owens, emphasizing the joy brought by the surprise Christmas gifts. We'll be back in a moment Break: INGLES 6 – TEDS STORY 6: Marietta Approves Mixed-Use Project at Former Harry's Site After Changes The Marietta City Council voted 7-0 to approve the redevelopment of 19.25 acres near Roswell and Powers Ferry roads, including the former site of Harry's Farmers Market. Atlanta-based Westplan Investor's mixed-use development proposal was initially vetoed by Mayor Steve Tumlin on Nov. 9, prompting negotiations. The revised plan includes 236 apartment units, 39 townhomes, and 29,000 square feet of retail space. The number of townhomes was increased from 28 to 39 to achieve a better balance. The development aims to revitalize the area, and Mayor Tumlin expressed hope that the retail space would contribute to the community's revitalization. STORY 7: Scholarship Created in Honor of Harrison High Student Killed By Alleged Drunk Driver The family of Olivia Pugh, the 17-year-old Harrison High School student killed by an alleged drunk driver, has created the Olivia Pugh Memorial Scholarship. The scholarship, established through a GoFundMe page, aims to support a Harrison High student who is hardworking and highly motivated, reflecting Olivia's character. In less than 24 hours, the fundraiser surpassed its $17,000 goal, raising over $25,000 from 245 donations. Olivia, a dedicated student and president of Harrison High's Beta Club, tragically lost her life when struck by a car while crossing a marked crosswalk. The scholarship will honor her memory and positive qualities. Break: Henssler :60 Signoff- Thanks again for hanging out with us on today's Marietta Daily Journal podcast.

This Week in Culture Episode 352: "Lawmen: Bass Reeves S1 Ep7 - Yosemite Sam" Join Ant and J. Johnson in this episode as they delve into the penultimate chapter of #LawmenBassReeves, available on @paramountplus. In S1 Ep7, the hosts dissect the emotional journey of Bass Reeves, exploring the trauma he faces and the toll his past demons are taking on his family. Get ready for a deep dive into the gripping storyline and thought-provoking themes.
We're surveying a selection of Bugs Bunny cartoons, all with a medieval theme, some of which are explicitly Arthurian. The earliest, "Knights Must Fall", is a pretty generic burlesque of Bugs Bunny versus a powerful knight, but draws some inspiration from A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, especially in Bugs's use of locomotives and whatnot. "Knight Mare Hare" is a pretty unfocused take on Connecticut Yankee, complete with framing device, and while it's not a particularly tight cartoon, it has some classic Chuck Jones abstract backgrounds, and some pretty good gags. "Knighty Knight Bugs" is a much more tightly-constructed story, with Bugs being sent by King Arthur to recover the Singing Sword, only to encounter Yosemite Sam as the Black Knight. This won the Academy Award for best animated short, and it's not hard to understand why. "Bugs Bunny in King Arthur's Court" is an oddity--a 20-minute retelling of Connecticut Yankee made in 1978, it's sometimes surprisingly faithful to Twain's novel--like Bugs setting up factories like Hank Morgan--while at other times making extremely strange choices, like having Daffy Duck as King Arthur. Voices by Mel Blanc. "Knights Must Fall" and "Knighty Knight Bugs" directed by Fritz Freleng, "Knight Mare Hare" and "King Arthur's Court" directed by Chuck Jones.

What's up, dudes? I've got Robert Nicholas from Behind the Bells with me to talk all about the anthology special “Bugs Bunny's Looney Christmas Tales!” Released in ‘79, right on the cusp of the ‘80s, it's got 3 newly animated shorts held together by a loose framing device! Oh, and it's quite fun and spectacular too!The meta aspect of the special begins as Bugs Bunny, rehearsing his carolers, tells the tale of A Christmas Carol. Yosemite Sam is the miserly Scrooge who fires Porky Pig's Cratchitt. Bugs, mischievous as ever, takes it upon himself to play the Ghost of Christmas. Sneakily, he haunts Sam by banging drums, pouring snow in his hot bath, and threatening to take him to see the “other” guy in the red suit. As Bugs and gang sit for Christmas dinner, they congratulate each other on their acting performances of the Dickensian characters. Meanwhile, Wile E. Coyote eyes the turkey and immediately wishes he had roast roadrunner. The chase begins! Time and again the coyote is stymied by Acme products. His snow machine wallops him repeatedly, his sled dogs try to eat him, and his rocking horse leaves him. Returning to the choir, Bugs leaves to read his nephew A Visit from St. Nicholas. Unbeknownst to the rabbits, the Tasmanian Devil escapes his confinements and accidentally hijacks Santa's sleigh team. Trying to avoid being eaten, Bugs tricks Taz into eating an inflatable raft, levitating him away.Taz in a Santa suit? Check. Stuttering characters trying to sing? Yup. Wile E. Coyote constantly getting crushed by snow? Definitely!

Happy July! We return from our month-long hiatus with two ideas that are the exact opposite of summer fun, but we're going to try and turn them into some hot hot IP anyway. First, Zach brings us a Texas tragedy and we Tarantino it up a notch into a three-part (plus interludes) hunt for buried treasure where the Ennio Morricone score will be pumping. Then Sarah tells us a magical tale of petty corporate overreach, and we turn it into a spy comedy where a very special card that could spell nuclear annihilation requires a quest to win it back. Plus: The problem with KaibaCorp, a straight-up Breaking Bad reunion, full Terminator mode, literally over a million Magic cards, and Yosemite Sam on Bumble.

A little while ago I stumbled onto a video that edited the Bugs Bunny cartoon "From Hare to Heir" down to just Yosemite Sam's fake curses. I was highly amused by this and thought it would be funny to put it to a beat. That led to a couple other ideas which eventually led to this song with me attempting a Yosemite Sam impression.
Join us as we begin our month-long celebration of Bugs Bunny with June Bugs! We start by looking as Bugs attempts to fly a plane with a criminal Yosemite Sam on board with 'Hare Lift' Followed by Bugs taking on the Big Bad Wolf (and some horrible little pigs) in 'The Windblown Hare' We then conclude with Bugs becoming the Easter Rabbit (Hooraaay) in 'Easter Yeggs' LINKS: Support the show on Patreon!: patreon.com/TNQAF Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/that_looney Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tnqaf/

That reminds Mike of the guy who recently survived 15-20 hours wading in the Gulf of Mexico after he got hammered and fell off a cruise ship. Luke says there is no way that someone can fall off a cruise ship because they have 10 foot walls. Steve says Christ never found his way inside of him despite a heavy dose of him in his childhood. Steve also grew up in Hawaii where they played on volcanic dirt. If you've never run the bases at your local professional baseball park, Steve says those infield dirts are slippery as hell. Have you seen the new film The Menu? Steve knows a bit about the restaurant it's set in. High pressure restaurants are hell. Mike recalls his days working at the Stillwater Grill in 2001 with his pal Morgan. Great memories! Also, Foghorn Leghorn is not Yosemite Sam. The Humpty Dance will always put a pep in your step. Steve and Mike are big fans and they say farewell to Humpty from the Humpty Dance, better known as Shock G, who died last year. It brings up Mike's memory of not getting busy in a Burger King bathroom even though he worked at a couple of them. We hit up your emails of course! Eric comes out with the tipping point as he is on the brink with the amount of tipping opportunities at even the most banal of eateries. The fellas are with the food service workers all day. Tip a lot and tip often. Those tips make a difference. Where do you stand on the battle between Jersey Mike's, Penn Station and Subway? Luke says the word complicated during the restaurant discussion which created a spark in Mike's mind to play Ain't No Blacks On The TV Screen from the Mad TV days. It's an example of a parody song being vastly superior to the original, which was Chris Rock's No Sex. Who is opening for Bill Cosby for his new comedy tour this summer? We HAVE to know. Who would stoop that low?!. Sean's email is about the options on HBO Max. Which one will you choose? We close this show with a classic from Jeff Beck called Greensleeves. If any of this nonsense strikes you, please email the show isitsafepod@gmail.com to improve the overall quality of future conversations. We love you all!
Holmberg's Morning Sickness - Brady Report - Monday November 14, 2022
"Zig Zag" is a very depressing 2002 American Indie comedy/drama film. An autistic 15 year old boy steals money from his boss to provide rent for his abusive father, Blade, who uses the money to repay a loan shark, the bad guy from "Blade 2". This movie also stars Natasha Lyonne who ages at half the rate of a normal person, and Oliver Platt who plays Yosemite Sam. John Leguizamo plays the role of Dean Singer, a friend and 'big brother' to Zig Zag who helps him to return the money to his boss and shows him porn. Hosted on Acast.

Rachelle and Carder talk about a Christ-like way to respond to people when we are triggered. They also share how Jesus us warns us (from 2000 years ago) what to watch out for in our quest for "truth."
Spit Hit for April 21, 2022: You'll hear a couple new voices on today's show. With Owl Borland down with the sickness, Judge Giamatti is at the controls and comes in hot with a fresh scat. Then, Yosemite Sam comes in to discuss the archaic method of allergy testing. The guys also discuss airplane etiquette, splitting up the check at a restaurant, and playing our podcast for the Queen. This is another hilarious episode that you do not want to miss!
