Ordinarily this would be a Patreon Subscriber episode, but with the passing of Lynn Marie Stewart, we thought we'd make it available to everyone.

In this episode of Cable Box Theater, hosts Father Malone and hp discuss the origins and cultural impact of The Pee Wee Herman Show, a 1981 stage production that aired on HBO. The discussion covers the show's background in the improvisation group The Groundlings, Paul Reubens' creation of the character, and the performances of key cast members, including Phil Hartman and Lynne Marie Stewart.
