The Golden Palace - A Spinoff of The Golden Girls (with Samantha MacAdam)
Explicit content warning
08/27/20 • 58 min
The Golden Palace WAS a show. It was a spinoff of The Golden Girls—but subtract Bea Arthur, and add Don Cheadle and Cheech Marin. They sell their house and buy a hotel in Miami. Why do they come out of retirement to take on this much risk and hard work? Why does Sophia want to run a commercial kitchen and bus tables at 87? We decided to put on some pastel leisurewear and investigate. Featuring guest Samantha MacAdam!

Joanie Loves Chachi - A Phrase Everyone Knows!
Joanie Loves Chachi WAS a show. You’ve probably heard of it, but never actually seen it! It was the Happy Days spin-off that spun out. The series mixes traditional sitcom elements with musical performances, as Joanie Cunningham and Chachi Arcola try to make it as rock and/or roll musicians in Chicago in the early 60s—and we see if they can carry the tune.

AfterMASH - The Aftermath of M*A*S*H
AfterMASH WAS a show. It was a spinoff of M*A*S*H...obviously! The show follows three characters from the original series after they return home from the Korean War. Colonel Sherman T. Potter, Maxwell Klinger and Father John Mulcahy reunite to work together at General Pershing Veteran's Hospital a.k.a. "General General,” located in the fictional town of River Bend, Missouri. Much like the legendary M*A*S*H, AfterMASH attempts to balance comedy with tragedy, and we take a serious look at how it fares in comparison to its predecessor.
Trigger Warning: AfterMASH explores serious subject matter including Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and poor treatment of veterans. We talk about these themes in our episode.
