Edgar Rice Burroughs® Podcast

We do things a little differently in this episode. Scott, Jess and Tim provide commentary for the two Johnny Weismuller films made during World War II, in which Tarzan encounters Nazis, dinosaurs, man-eating plants and really big spiders. 

The idea is to watch the movies with the sound down and the subtitles down while playing the commentary. We'll let you know when to hit PLAY.

After some introductory remarks, we begin the commentary on Tarzan Triumphs at the 5:20 mark. Commenary for Tarzan's Desert Mystery begins at the 1 hour, 25 minute mark.

An analysis of Chapter 10 of Tarzan of the Apes, in which Tarzan makes some new enemies.
