Gone But Not Forgotten (We Have the VHS to Prove It)

The pessimist would call this an obituary-focused episode.  The Guys (optimists to the hilt as far as you know) call it a celebration of geek lives.   From actors remembered from when The Guys were but wee lads: Louise Lasser and Randolph Mantooth, to the oldest astronaut ever to go into space (it’s not who you think).  From the sponsor of Soul Train to Bright Eyes (not Caesar’s mom - the one beseeched to turn around.  And of course, one of the patriarchs of the Jurassic Park series, who likely has a pretty high Geek Index.  It was a rough week or two in some ways, but it generated some great memories.   Jay is hoping Robbie’s next entrepreneurial adventure will be to buy Wayne Manor - yes, it’s for sale - as the next GOCA headquarters.  It would be a great place to watch The Batman 2 in February 2028: thanks, Matt Reeves, for giving him a little more time to get the finances in order.  Art has news of George Lucas’s controversial AI statements, and it appears that the role of Kylo Magneto has been cast.  Break out the tissues and the VCRs for this audio walk down memory lane.  It’s a total eclipse of the Art.
