The Apocalypse Now Minutes Frain & Steele

Tierney and Chris begin the journey, ruminating on the first five minutes of Apocalypse Now. The spell-binding opening montage, the haunting music, and the recipe for a proper Bee's Knees. 

Tierney and Chris reflect on the suffering of Martin Sheen's 36th birthday and the ethics of the opening scene, and track down the origin of "33" beer. Welcome home, Marty!

Tag along with Chris and Tierney as the lurk in the super-secret intelligence HQ (a trailer) and follow close-ups of faces and food. We get to hear Colonel Kurtz while meeting our new friends: R Corman, G Lucas, and Jerry the Civilian!

Chris and Tierney are joined by a very special guest for Minutes 15-20: Pete the Retailer (Star Wars Minute, ABCDevo)! The three try to have every philosophical debate ever, but manage to cover ground that includes: Porklips Now, Mickey's Christmas Carol, and the Slovakian national hockey team. Plus, they might have mentioned Star Wars at some point.
 

This episode is going out to "Fred the Head" courtesy of special guest Jim O'Kane (The Rocketeer Minute, The Apollo 13 Minute)! While going over the Kurtz Dossier, Tierney, Jim, and Chris also discuss: 1979, Pat Sajak, and  Henry Miller.
Shout out to Deborah Fine, researcher extraordinaire!
