Six Dorkgrees of Kevin Bacon


Listen Later

Making bacon. Making Kevin Bacon. In this episode we play Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon with random people sent in by our listeners. It's a weird one but we still like it.

FURTHER DORKSCUSSION:

(From Wikipedia) In a January 1994 interview, Kevin Bacon mentioned that "he had worked with everybody in Hollywood or someone who's worked with them." Later in 1994, three college students Craig Fass, Brian Turtle and Mike Ginelli - invented the game that became known as "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon" after seeing two movies on television that featured Bacon back to back, Footloose and The Air Up There. During the latter film they began to speculate on how many movies Bacon had been in and the number of people with whom he had worked.

A huge thank you to everyone who sent in a name to play!

Making (Kevin) Bacon!

"If you take me out of it, I find 'six degrees' to be a beautiful concept that we should try to live by. It's about compassion and responsibility for everyone on the planet." - Kevin Bacon
