Happy Thanksgiving, you guys! This episode is all about food, movies and parades. What more do you need?
Extra goodness from this episode: you can witness the Barney carnage for yourself in this video from the 1997 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. It was a day of high winds and calamity.
Sometimes the most important questions aren’t ones like, “Why are we here?” or “What’s the meaning of life?” but “What movie should I see?” and “How do I become a regular at a bar?”
This isn’t your grandfather’s (or grandmother’s) scything… How to get your scythe on in today’s strimmer-centric world. Served up with a side of Poldark!
Keith offers up the pageantry of the Freddie Mercury tribute concert in 1992 (you can access all 13 videos through that link – but David Bowie/Annie Lennox are in part 8 and Liza is part 13) as well as possibly the most perfect video in all of YouTube-dom: a horse taking it to the limit.
Ellen introduces us to the wonder of screaming goats in this epic montage.
And Joel directs us to the ultimate YouTube stress-buster (or celebratory video, depending on your mood today): KHAAAAANN! Perfect for any situation.
This episode embraces randomness… the weird, random thoughts you have, encounters in the gym locker room, and the recurring randos who make life a little bit more interesting.
This episode it’s all about Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous… explore champagne wishes and caviar dreams with Mike Love of The Beach Boys and Vince Neil of Motley Crue!
Here are some of the segments IÂ reference in the episode:
Mike Love wears many hats on Lifestyles in 1990…
Mike Love makes an ass of himself at the Rock ‘n Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony (you can skip Brian Wilson trying to read his speech while Mike hovers in the background and then adjusts Brian’s mic… oh, just watch the whole thing!):
Things were OK for Vince Neil after he got kicked out of the Crue… No, really, everything was fine!
And here’s the Jackie Zeman video you didn’t know you wanted to see… so steamy.
