Set Sail With A Very Special Episode of THE LOVE BOAT

This week's time killer is the second of three Love Boat episodes we'll be doing as we wait for Wonder Man. This time we are jumping to season five, episode fifteen or ten, depending on who you're asking, but PlutoTV has it as ten. In this one Doc gives a pianist drugs, there is a frank examination of mental health and we get a storyline about the trans experience that would kill a Republican at thirty paces. It's 1982 and the story feels so much more progressive than almost anything we get today. Did society start to crumble when we stopped doing Very Special Episodes? Is The Love Boat a step down after making your debut as a lead in Saturday Night Fever? And what horrible, upsetting and depressing true life facts connected to this week's co-stars will we discuss?Before that, a little bit of news and some questions get answered. Why is The Question objectivist? Do we miss anything about New York City? Are there LEGO conspiracies? Don't care about any of this? Skip to 41:38.Want your questions answered on the show?
