Chapter 19, Verse 79: Life of Brian.Topics of discussion in this sermon include how hype-trains can often kill a classic (especially comedies); we trace a ton of modern comedy tropes back to the Python’s; and finally, we wonder why the Python’s thought lisps and cross dressing were the zenith of comedy.Be sure to rate, review and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.
