Ep 354: The Winkie Strikes Back


Listen Later

Just when you weren’t expecting it… BAM… More Winkie news! It’s been a few years since our epic documentary “Ep 181: Winkie: The Untold Story” and we were recently informed of not one, but TWO developments to what we already know! Thanks to the incredible work of Ivenne, and the translations skills of Markus Lindstrom, we have something a little special this week. There’s a recently discovered video on YouTube (see the video on the accompanying webpage for this episode) that contains footage from a French TV series, recorded in 1985, that shows the infamous Winkie billboard competition in action. However, with it being in French, Paul has had a clever idea… and it’s going to involve calling on some of the CheapShow family to help out! And yet there is even more new Winkie news than that! To top things off, Eli has more platters to share, one of which may be the rarest record they’ve ever discovered. But just because it’s rare, doesn’t mean it’s going to be any good. It’s a surprisingly packed episode, it even comes with a Singing Postman!
With MASSIVE thanks to Ivenne Mecking, Markus Lindstrom, Stuart Ashen, John Rain, Sooz Kempner, Paul Putner, Brian Wecht, Octavious King and Ethan Lawrence
