We have reached the end of Season 3 and the first "phase" of MASH. Anthony, Ethan, Mike, Bellacissa, ChiefsMASH, and The MASH Historian dive into all aspects of Henry Blake's/McLean Stevenson's departure from the show. The build-up, behind-the-scenes moments, changes to the script, the gut punch ending and the audience reactions. We also talked for a while about the future of MASH, the Pros and Cons of the cast changes, and our excitement for season 4! We hope you enjoy our longest show yet!

A special thank you to Our Guests for their time, especially The MASH Historian for sharing his copy of the Script with us. And Thank You to all of our listeners and Patreon supporters for making this possible.

Col. Flagg has returned! Despite the Scooby Doo music, Anthony and Ethan find some interesting things to talk about in this episode. Mainly, the implication behind Hawkeye and Trapper's silly little appendix gag.
