    LeaguePodcast Curbcast: Larry David: Curb Your Enthusiasm (TV Movie 1999)

    Curbcast is back with a special video edition as Clay and Dursin break down the 1999 Curb Your Enthusiasm pilot—the mockumentary TV movie that launched 25 years of Larry David being Larry David. We dive into LD’s return to stand-up, HBO’s ridiculous theater-in-the-round stage concepts, Jeff’s mistress complications, and why Larry insists on nodding at Black people in hallways. It’s Seinfeld without network censors, laying the fascinating groundwork for every awkward encounter to come. We discuss whether the pilot holds up, the "tú" form struggle, and why Larry didn't get caught in the stepfather lie. Pretty, pretty, pretty good stuff!

    Leaguepodcast Do-Over Part 1 - The Invisible Man (1933) Video Variant

    The League discusses the 1933 classic The Invisible Man. They reflect on a recent live recording session they did in front of a live audience, celebrating Clay's birthday. They delve into the movie's plot, starring Claude Rains as the Invisible Man, who uses his newfound invisibility powers to create chaos and hilarity. The hosts discuss the innovative special effects used in the film, like dealing with invisibility in 1933 and some goofy scenes involving naked bike rides. They also debate the film's campy versus serious tones, its comedic moments, and make humorous observations about the invisible man's digestive system. The episode wraps up with the trio giving the film high marks for its groundbreaking effects and fun factor. 00:00 Dramatic Opening: A Mysterious Encounter 00:41 Podcast Introduction and Live Show Recap 06:34 Universal Horror Series: Past Episodes 07:53 The Invisible Man: Movie Background and Production09:39 Claude Rains: The Man Behind the Invisible Man16:49 The Invisible Man: Plot and Key Scenes41:51 Discussing the Invisible Man's Car and Kemp's Betrayal42:50 Griffin's Encounter with Flora and His Ambitions43:50 The Police's Plan and Griffin's Antics45:39 Kemp's Fear and Griffin's Threat46:29 Griffin's Chaotic Rampage49:18 The Police's Final Plan and Griffin's Capture51:36 Griffin's Demise and Final Thoughts57:33 Reflecting on the Movie's Impact and Legacy01:01:49 Grading the Movie and Final Remarks
