This show is as iconic as it gets. Just kidding - we watched that s****y knock-off show with two dumbasses and a gorilla. You were thinking of The Real Ghostbusters. That's not what we watched.

    Pusteblume with Fred Nicolaus - Breakfast Quest 94

    Frontman of Golden Suits and podcaster Fred Nicolaus comes back for another go 'round in Breakfast Studios to join Nick and Lars for an episode of Pusteblume, a live action, German-language educational show from the late '70s. As a first, this is a foreign language show with no subtitles or sound-dubbing, so we basically had no idea what was happening. The episode we watched was about growing pumpkins, so take a listen if you want to hear three people not understanding how to grow pumpkins! Send your emails to letters@breakfastquest.net!

    Dragon Ball Z with Patrick Monahan - Breakfast Quest 93

    Patrick Monahan returns to join Nick and Lars for an episode of the action anime classic Dragon Ball Z (on the recommendation of Thomas, a listener who sent some suggestions to us in an email). If you don't know the show, it's an incredibly slow-moving and lore-rich show about dudes who fight each other by talking about fighting each other. The episode we watched is the one where series protagonist Goku gets so mad his hair changes color. Send your emails to letters@breakfastquest.net! You can watch the episode we watched, "Transformed at Last," on Funimation's subscription service. If you have an easier way to watch it, let us know! ...and SUBSCRIBE TO BREAKFAST QUEST ON iTUNES!
