Flopcast 508: Canadian PSAs - Which Are Good, Which Are Bad

from The Flopcast

We love Canada, and we love goofy public service announcements, so Kornflake has rounded up a bunch of Canadian PSAs to watch and discuss. And while nothing can replace Schoolhouse Rock and Robolar from Mars in our hearts, these videos (mostly from the 80s, of course) are pretty fantastic. They include: anti-smoking cartoon aliens, puppet geese in hot air balloons, puppet mice with a giant mousetrap, Canadian pop stars and hockey players, a freaky bear from space, a mystery in the woods, a beheaded kid (don't worry, he's fine), a depressed television, an angry furnace, an amputated robot (also fine), and an astonishing "Drugs, Drugs, Drugs" conga line. Links to all these weird and wonderful PSAs are in the show notes, so we can all play along together. We might even learn a valuable lesson or two. But probably not. Here you go, all the Canadian PSAs discussed in the show... Canadian geese in hot air balloons... Aliens who hate cigarettes... Be nice, clear your ice... Crazed anti-smoking bear with a rock band... Particip-Action... TV that doesn't want you to watch TV... Canadian pop star Luba wants you to break free... Drugs, Drugs, Drugs conga line... Puppet mice and giant mousetrap... Something will happen to you in the woods. We just don't know what... Boating safety - just pretend you're on the water... Beware the freaky singing furnace in your basement... Puppets shouldn't put things in their puppet mouths... Kid who loses his head... 1970s appliances are very angry about hot water... And the return of Astar, the frequently amputated robot...
