Hola, Sneakers! Welcome to the podcast that regrets its individuality!

This week: [scratching sound of needle being taken off record]

Sorry, folks, quick post this week as we recorded on Friday, went to see a comedy show after recording, and I – David- am going down to the States with Lezah in ten minutes.

So no “hilarious” puns this week, no obscure references to song titles and no…whatever else I do here.

Thanks for listening! We love you all!

Question of the Week: What comedian that we don’t know about should we know about?
Sub-question of the Week: You have to write your manifesto. What is your topic?
Sub-sub-question of the Week: What Queen song could be transformed into a song to be sung by Eddie Murphy? [Terrible puns encouraged!]

What’s the greatest escape? Getting lost in a delightful podcast episode discussing the 1963 Steve McQueen classic (with surprisingly little Steve McQueen).
Our hosts Jason Dedrick, Eric Fell and Vicky Van spend some time in the cooler that is Hellkitty Studios in the wintertime going over their memories of the film.

They also enjoy a beverage called The Grape Escape.

Want to make it? Follow this link!

If you’d rather see a full on happy ending, this video game has you covered…

The gang also make up their own tribute drink, the TUNNEL VISION, which the producer’s wife says has a very nice aftertaste, but needs more schnapps.
Here’s how to make it:

They also have some delicious Heroes mini candy.

If you do make the The Grape Escape or Tunnel Vision or come up with one of your own, please send a picture to [email protected] by following this link! Even if you don’t, we’d still love to hear from you.

Ed Draganski sent in a drink suggestion: it’s called Swamp Water at a local restaurant, but let’s call it Sneak Water.

But may we suggest a gummy dragon in place of the gummy worm?

Gremlins 2: The New Batch. The film so nice they made it twice. Listen as our mischievous hosts Jason Dedrick, Eric Fell and Vicky Van let us know if this sequel Trumps the first.

They also create a drink based on this messy mix of a movie. It’s called The Clamp. Want to make it? Here’s how:

If you do decide to make this, remember not to drink it in the daylight, lest it get you wet, or have it after midnight. And please take a picture and send it to us. Also let us know if you agree Gizmo just needed to stay in that damn drawer.

You can post it here or email us at this link! (Even if you don’t, we’d still love to hear from you.)

Here is the drink suggested by Louise. Unfortunately, the layers weren’t well defined and the drink itself is not on fire, but this is how it looked:

Here is the fun meme that Eve created to celebrate Reesa’s safe return:

Jason mentioned Almost Midnight – the sketch comedy show he performed in with friends. Here is a sketch from one of their shows:

And here is the trailer for The Lady in the Lake. This trailer created a real Mandela Effect for us as there is clearly instrumental music in the trailer. Was it also used in the movie? Did we selectively remember only the parts using voices? (And by “we” I mean “Dave”.)

Looking for the perfect holiday gift? How about hosts Jason Dedrick, Eric Fell and Vicky Van telling you their memories of 1984’s Gremlins? Make sure you don’t get the podcast wet, because you’re probably listening on an electronic device and that’s really bad for it. Also don’t drink the beverages they made up and drive. No really, especially if you’re a teenager:

Also don’t eat this cereal after midnight. Or before midnight. Because it was discontinued decades ago:

They also create two tribute drinks based on the Joe Dante classic. Here’s how to make them:

THE GIZMO

(Review from producer’s wife : Nice.)

THE BLENDED GREMLIN

(Review from producer’s wife : Bleh!)

If you make The Gizmo or The Blended Gremlin, or come up with one of your own, please send a picture to [email protected] by following this link! Even if you don’t, we’d still love to hear from you.

Before we get to the videos, here is a history of Brett Bunt’s tragically short-lived comic book series Existing Earth, as told by Brent himself to local paper The Tisdale Recorder. Follow this link.

The link Mark provided of Belle and Sebastian’s appearance on The Simpsons unfortunately didn’t work in Canada, so we’ve used these videos instead:

Here is the video of Marc Maron in conversation with comedy historian Kliph Nesteroff:
