On this  episode of Bots, Bugs, and Babes, my father (Al Jaconetti) and I read and discuss listener feedback that has been sent in to the show about King Kong (1976). We had enough listener feedback, that it got its own episode!

So you ask, will we tangent off into other topics? Of course! Will we talk about other remakes? Another yes! Will I confuse the Tilly sisters? Possibly! But what else would you expect? So bundle up, grab a mug of hot chocolate and enjoy the episode.

“If its dull or statistical, I’ve written about it.”
