Episode 369 - Monty Python's The Meaning of Life

This week on the Magnificently Huge Podcast Brian, Chris, and Eric revisit Monty Python' s final theatrical outing: - The Meaning of Life! A film that's less a movie than a series of comedy grenades tied together by the vague notion that we're all born, we suffer, and eventually the Grim Reaper shows up because someone forgot to clean the salmon mousse. Along the way, we join the Python team in satirizing religion, war, education, medicine, capitalism, fine dining, and the sheer inconvenience of existence.
