Episodes
Lucy and Corbett talk about the true way to listen to music, in a cassette with eight tracks. Why is an eight track only four tracks? How can you be the main character in your life? What songs really annoy Lucy? Listen in and find out.
Lucy and Corbett discuss the comedy/acting of Jim Varney and the importance of being Ernest. We compare and contrast what Ernest was all about and what Jim Varney did to contribute to the genre. Knowwhatimean!
Many people remember the good old days of trying to eat a meal and choking on a cloud of smoke. Ahh, the good times keep rolling with Lucy and Corbett talking about the time when you could smoke on a plane. Is smoking bad for you, sure. Will you look cool while getting lung cancer, maybe. Is it better now or better then, who is to know. Sit back and smoke'em if you got'em.
Lucy and Corbett have a return guest, Mike from the Found in the Ruins podcast, and they are talking about The Day After (and the Cold War in general). When the bombs are dropping we only have our desks to hide under. A lot of discussions about what living under the constant threat of nuclear annihilation felt like and how numb everyone is from it. You can only squeeze a few laughs out of that lemon, but Corbett an...
Lucy and Corbett talk about the 1985 film 'Better Off Dead'. We have our ups and downs, but surprisingly Lucy comes out unscathed. We both have a few laughs and talk about the drug problems together. Ahh, the bonding with parent an child over some confusing 80's cinema.
Lucy is traumatized when Corbett has her watch a comedy classic, Weekend at Bernie's, though it may not be as traumatizing as finding out there was a sequel. Just the same, it is a fun romp talking about having fun with a corpse and finding out all those crazy connections back to it.
Have you ever won an award and just said, "Nah"? Well this is the time that Marlon Brando won the Oscar for the Godfather and turned it down, by causing a scandal. Lucy and Corbett have a special guest Sam (Corbett's Sister and Lucy's Aunt, so definite nepotism is involved), to talk about the problems that have been around since America was settled and it all comes down to an award show, who woul...
Lucy and Corbett check in for the end of Black History Month and Talk about Good Times. Sure we could always use some good times, but this was all about the 1970's sitcom, Good Times. Lots of little trivial bits to know about the show and then Lucy wraps it up, talking about some more contemporary shows. It may not be the best time for a podcast, but there are always Good Times.
It is Valentines Day and there is nothing more romantic than talking about a couple that have long since been divorced. Sonny and Cher were America's sweethearts.. at least at one point they were. We are talking about the Sonny and Cher Comedy Hour and a little on Sonny Bono and Cher's general history together.
Everyone loves phones, though phones thirty years ago and phones now are two different animals. Lucy and Corbett take on the monopoly breakup of the phone company of the 1970's and 1980's and follow it up with what we are doing in the future.
Wonderful, wonderful! We are starting off the new year and being fancy, by talking about The Lawrence Welk Show and Champagne Music. We find out how soap can make you dirty and the secrets of Tic Tok. It is a fun ride of being fancy, so sit back and give it a listen.
As we all know the world ended 25 years ago, which is why we are going to talk about it now. That's right, Y2K panic was all over the headlines. When the clock struck midnight, planes would fall out of the sky, everyone would be forced to move to Canada, money would have no meaning, and dogs and cats would be living together... MASS HISTERIA!! Bit of a spoiler, the world just kept happening and we are all stil...
The Eighties were dark times, filled with bright neon colors and roving bands of people in jeeps, but there was a moment during the holidays when peoples hearts are filled with love. So much love that they must show it by hurting other people in order to get the doll they so rightly deserve. This episode we talk about the dolls that nearly destroyed Christmas in 1983. Merry Christmas!
With a special guest host, Mike Stewart from the Save for Half Podcast, we are talking about Satan, and how everyone got really religious way back when. As it turns out, Satan apparently needs a hobby, because all he has been doing has been corrupting the young.
Just a simple discussion about going to the movies. We find how how many drive-in theaters there are still left, and that the oldest one of those is still in operation. We all get to learn about the best way to sneak in food too!
Just Lucy and Corbett remembering when gas was so expensive it was fifty-five cents a gallon. Outrageous! Can gas prices affect Sunday football? Does Corbett really like road-tripping, or is Lucy going to rat him out. Grab your gas can, get in line, and tune in for a few reminders of a pivotal moment that really drove the world. (Yeah, we went there.)
Time for Lucy and Corbett to sit down and talk about the real problems in life, detention. Talking about The Breakfast Club, another review of the John Hughes film and the characters that it revolves around. Will Lucy and Corbett figure out some deep rooted problems with the world, or will they just give you a few minutes to think about other things. Give it a listen and find out for yourself.
Get up and get down! Corbett and Lucy are talking about Disco, the music, the era, and the style. We learn that it is just too hard to stop dancing and Disco Duck is an acquired taste. So sit back and listen in for a generational discussion about one of the most despised music genres.
Lucy and Corbett discuss what happened when the students of China demonstrated the need for freedom and the government answered with a tank brigade. Not a happy-go-lucky episode, but definitely one that needed to be covered.
A follow up from the King, to the Prince. A discussion of two different generations talking about Prince, and the artist formerly known as Prince. All the little memories of apparently a prince of a guy. Make sure to listen to it with Pancakes!
