Episode 08: Kojak, S2 E12
09/29/20 • 62 min
🔥 This week’s episode was recorded with Richard in the middle of the California wildfires that turned the sky of San Francisco red, only to be topped by a heatwave. If he sounds like he’s in a 100 degree closet with a bowl of ice water soaking a towel to put on his head... he was. Just pretend the tinkling ice and mildly muffled sound was for less apocalyptic reasons, baby! 🔥
Hang out with us as Zoë and Richard recap Kojak season 2, episode 12, “The Best War In Town” with actor and screenwriter, special guest Ben Livingston. Watch as a series of bland, indescribable gangsters try to kill other bland, indescribable gangsters for control of someplace! That is, until Kojak gets involved with his tough, no-nonsense, Hellenic street wisdom and works tirelessly to save the gangsters who murder, sell drugs, and run prostitutes. But hey, better the psychopaths you know, right?--
Finally, this episode was not sponsored by Tootsie Pops, even though you know you want one...

Episode 07: Scarecrow and Mrs. King, S2 E12
Just your typical end of the Cold War-era spy shenanigans when a United States spy agency (that shall remain nameless) enlists the aid of a middle-aged divorced mother to prevent the scourge of communism from spreading. This week Zoë, Richard, and special guest Danny, watch in confusion as Scarecrow and Mrs. King embark on a wedding cruise to find a missing friend and thwart illegal funding for a revolution. Listen as we say “I do! ... not understand some of the decisions made by the creative team of this show” while strange accents appear and disappear, endless, suspicious glances are made for no reason, and some of the worst spycraft we’ve ever seen take to the high seas in “Ship of Spies.”

Episode 09: Matt Houston, S1 E13
What happens when a Texas millionaire moves to LA to solve crime? Oh, you want answers to questions? Well, be prepared to be disappointed as you are plunged into a world where rational decisions and logical thought are foreign concepts. We delve into an episode where a tiger is trained to kill Werner Klemperer and the suspects are Barbie Benton, a trained karate killer Sonny Bono, and Zsa Zsa Gabor and that’s probably the second weirdest thing in Season 1, Episode 13, “The Purrfect Crime.” Yeah. That’s the actual title.
Join us as we time travel back almost 30 years for Aaron Spelling’s dire warning for future generations, beware the Tigers of March...
P.S. We got Richard’s sound figured out for the next episode, we promise! If you want to hear that caper, live in progress, it’ll be free on our Patreon.
