It's a Podcast, Charlie Brown

  • Riassunto

  • As a kid, it was a good Saturday afternoon if I had a bowl of Cheetos and a collection of Peanuts comic strips in front of me. Charlie Brown and the gang were friends to me. (I especially identified with Linus.) I really liked the week-long story arcs and the brilliant mix of humor, frustration and perseverance of these lil' folks. And, honestly, I'm a little sad Shermie never took off as a main character. Animated Peanuts was great too. The airing of a Peanuts TV special was a big event in my house. I was pretty young, but I remember seeing RACE FOR YOUR LIFE, CHARLIE BROWN in 1977 in a movie theater. I know I watched A BOY NAMED CHARLIE BROWN over and over on cable. BON VOYAGE, CHARLIE BROWN (And Don't Come Back!) is a wonderful movie, animated or otherwise. And I don't think a year has gone by that I haven't watched the Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas specials. I pretty much have the dialogue memorized, much to the chagrin of my wife and kids. To date, Charlie Brown and the gang have appeared in five feature films and dozens of TV specials, including the series "This is America, Charlie Brown" and "The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Show". And on this podcast, we're going to watch them all. We'll discover what we liked and what we didn't. What worked and what didn't. There are many layers to a Peanuts special. Even in two dimensions, these characters are fully fleshed-out humans - and one beagle - with all the fears, anxieties, joys and laughs we all experience. Let's explore those together.

    131: PLAYWRIGHT BERT V. ROYAL
    Dec 20 2024

    December isn't just a great month because the Great Pumpkin, er, Santa Claus, stops by, though it is. We also get another episode of IT'S A PODCAST, CHARLIE BROWN. I mean, same as every month, but still pretty cool. Santa doesn't even do that.

    This month we've got playwright Bert V. Royal talking about his play "Dog Sees God: Confessions of a Teenage Blockhead". We also check out news and feedback from in and around the Peanuts universe and take a look at another random strip of the month.

    Happy holidays everybody.

    130: BULBOUS PEANUTS HEADS
    Dec 10 2024

    It's December and in episode 130, we've got another holiday to worry about. Christmastime is upon us. But fear not! We've got "A Charlie Brown Christmas" to see us through. Sort of! I went and saw "A Charlie Brown Christmas: Live on Stage". And I have thoughts!

    I also have thoughts about another episode of "Peanuts by Schulz" called "Even-ing the Score". We also ponder This Month in Peanuts History. (Spoiler: the month is December.)

    The episode is like an early Christmas present really.

  • 129: BETTER THAN PIZZA

    129: BETTER THAN PIZZA
    Nov 20 2024

    Isn't pizza great? Well, IT'S A PODCAST, CHARLIE BROWN 129 isn't pizza, but it's just as good - just without the crispy crust, delectable sauce and toppings to die for. BUT, we do have a "Random Strip of the Month", a discussion of "Camp Snoopy", season 1, episode 8. Oh! Also this month's feeback and news bits. I guess those are like audio pizza rolls.

    I'm hungry now. And, hey, you can eat pizza while you listen! The best of two worlds!
