Ep 506: A Disturbance in The Force

This week the Regular Joes check out the recent documentary A Disturbance in The Force (available on disc or stream) which provides the best explanation to date on how and why the 1978 Star Wars Christmas Special came to be. As part of their rigorous preparation the Joes also dug up and watched the first episode of season three of the Donnie and Marie show from 1977, which included a Star Wars skit. This provided much needed context and forced Tod to come clean on his childhood Marie Osmond crush. If all of this does not seem compelling there’s also a lengthy discussion about Dave’s sports apparel peccadillos. Barry, heavily medicated, did not admit anything embarrassing. At this point it’s traditional to note, there’s also Random Topics, but the randomness of the aforementioned content makes this seem somehow redundant. Thanks for listening … and  happy Life Day!
