"There's a lotta things about me you don't know anything about, Dottie. Things you wouldn't understand. Things you couldn't understand. Things you shouldn't understand." We're back with a brand new season and we watch "Pee-wee's Big Adventure" directed by Tim Burton and even after all these years we can't contain our joy after viewing this comedy masterpiece. We really lost an icon when Paul Reubens passed so we're celebrating his legacy reviewing Pee-wee on his quest to find his prized bicycle. We take a little trip discussing the origins of the character in the underground L.A. comedy scene of the late 70s, the subversive/punk rock/queer undertones that inform Pee-wee and try and dissect how we can possibly still be laughing at these jokes all these years later. There was something in the sauce on the Warner lot when those crazy kids were making this movie and the world is a tiny bit more fun because of it.
Thanks for listening all season and we’ll be back with fresh episodes before you know it!
