Nick and Jerry have done something so incredible here. I loved reading The Annotated A&C and this is the companion podcast I have been desperately looking for.
I was introduced to the comedy team in the mid 90’s at a young age and collected every available vhs I could and memorized the routines. I was the kid that would be indoors watching these movies on a Friday night. I’m now a standup comedian and writer thanks to classic teams like the boys.
In the early 2000’s, I would write little reviews of these movies on Yahoo Movies and would research what was available to find out about them. However, outside of a few books that mention these deeper cuts briefly, there wasn’t a whole lot to accompany the movies I was watching.
Now here comes this incredible book that devotes a whole chapter to each and every movie with scene by scene commentary and this amazingly detailed and humorous podcast that has become my absolute favorite.
I’ve been a subscriber for some time but this review is long overdue. As a millennial fan, I’m so thrilled that the boys are immortalized by Nick and Jerry here. Between this podcast and the book, I’m certain they have given us the most substantial Bud & Lou material there could ever be and the most important thing to happen to them since their television renaissance in the early 2000’s on AMC. This is how the classics stay relevant and thriving. Can’t thank you guys enough and hope to be in touch down the road. Love it. So glad you have continued with other teams now as well! Best wishes,
