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!

Episode 119 is all about mixed emotions.
I mean, we've got news and feedback from in and around the Peanuts universe, which is great.
And we've got a discussion of season 1, episode1 of a BRAND NEW SNOOPY SERIES! "Camp Snoopy" just debuted on Apple TV and we're talking about it. This could be good. Spending the summer with the Beagle Scouts doesn't sound so bad.
But ...
In this month's Random Strip of the Month, listener Lynn presents a storyline from the strip that is maybe kind of in bad taste. So do we hate Peanuts now? Okay, maybe not, but be prepared to rethink humor in comics in general and Peanuts in particular.

In episode 116, we take some time to look at the work of Schulz friend and fellow cartoonist Jim Sasseville. From ghosting for the Peanuts comic books to trying to launch his onw strip, where did Sasseville's style match up with Schulz and where did it diverge? Also, what's up with the nude models? (Yep. You read that correctly.)
We've also got This Month in Peanuts History and a "Peanuts by Schulz" episode called "A Clean Sweep".

In episode 114, we find out that everything we thought we knew about Charles Schulz is a lie.
Ok, Not really. But it turns out despite a reputation for never working with an assistant, there was an exception - the original comic books published in the late fifties and early sixties. Jim Sasseville, Dale Hale and Tony Pocrnick each spent some time writing and drawing these spinoffs from the strip. We'll take a few minutes this episode talking specifically about Dale Hale - his Peanuts work and more.
We've also got This Month in Peanuts History and an episode of "Peanuts by Schulz" called "Birds of a Feather".
Good grief, I don't see how we could possibly stuff any more into this show.

Look to the sky and hold onto your marbles! It's episode 110 of IT'S A PODCAST, CHARLIE BROWN. Then write a thank you note to your grandmother. Of course, she'll be confused because she's not a podcaster. I mean, probably.
Anyway. In this episode, we've got THE SNOOPY SHOW, S3, episode 10. We also check out a PEANUTS BY SCHULZ episode titled "Being Nice" and look back at This Month in Peanuts History.
Now you all be nice and check out the episode. (See what I did there?"
