Description

Mary had studiously avoided this Weird Al vehicle, convinced that his brand of parody music--not her thing at all--would turn her off to this movie. Is she right? Or is this a beloved cult movie that ultimately wins her over? Tune in as we talk about the nature of music in humor, the lost world of local television, and Dennis's History of America in the 20th century.

Sure, the 1980s were a great decade for film. But have you seen all of them? No, neither has Mary. In fact, some pretty big films passed her by, what with being in kindergarten at the time: A Nightmare on Elm Street, Moonstruck, My Neighbor Totoro... So it's time to fix that. Artwork, opening and closing themes by Dennis Lingg Produced and edited by Mary Jones
