This episode, we've got "The Snoopy Show" S2, ep 8. This might be one of my favorites.

We're trying something new with the release schedule. Instead of one omnibus episode on the 15th, we're going to cut the fun into two parts and release them separately, on the 10th and 20th of the month. If we like it, we'll keep doing it. If we don't, we won't.

Episode 74 is here with love. And it's no small thing! 

(Seriously, this thing is like two hours long. Get comfy.)

This month, we take a gander at the latest offerings from Apple TV+, Wildbrain and Peanuts Worldwide. First up: "It's the Small Things, Charlie Brown" in which Sally has dandelion-angst. Then we watch "To Mom (and Dad) With Love", in which everyone, especially Peppermint Patty, has Mother's Day angst. 

We also have another "Random Strip of the Month" and a "Peanuts by Schulz" episode. 

Also, if you haven't already, check out the bonus episode where I describe my thoughts after seeing a production of "Dog Sees God: Confessions of a Teenage Blockhead".

Hey, everybody. I took a little break from producing the latest episode to enjoy a little theatre. I attended opening night of a production of Bert V. Royal's play "Dog Sees God: Confessions of a Teenage Blockhead", a reimagining of the Peanuts kids as teenagers dealing with some heavy issues. Homophobia, suicide, sex, drugs, death and life. Good grief there's a lot of stuff. 

Anyway, here's a bonus episode with my thoughts.

(If you want to hear me talk more about the play and Bert Royal, as well as my chat with the director of a different production of the play, check out episode 55. 

In episode 73, either all those voices in my head have spilled out onto the podcast, OR this episode is nearly bursting at the seams with INTERVIEWS! Good grief!

We've got the hosts of the new podcast "Unpacking Peanuts": Jimmy Gownley, Michael Cohen and Harold Buchholz. I tried real hard not to let my jealousy over their perfect pod-naming color our conversation.

THEN, for the first time since this pod was in it's 30's (episode numbers, that is), author/illustrator Jason Yungbluth returns. He's got a follow up to his Peanuts-in-a-Dsytopian-Hellscape graphic novel "Weapon Brown" called "Weapon Brown: Aftershock". And YOU can help make it happen by supporting the Kickstarter. 

Exclusive: I'm told MAYBE, just maybe, if the kickstarter meets its stretch goal, I could be immortalized as a (probably gruesomely killed) character in a "Weapon Brown" story. So gather your pennies!

We've also got a "Random Strip of the Month", a review of another "Peanuts by Schulz" and a Snoopy bigger-on-the-inside doghouse of other stuff.

Listen, the reality is many of us Peanuts fans are...of a certain age. But guess what, "You Don't Look 40, Charlie Brown", so that's something!

The glow of the Peanuts Universe is a bit dimmer this month in episode 70 of IT'S A PODCAST, CHARLIE BROWN. Peter Robbins, the original voice of Charlie Brown on TV and film passed away at age 65 after a life full of highs and far two many lows. We take a few minutes this episode to remember him.

We also talk about episode 13 of season 1 of Apple TV's "The Snoopy Show", enjoy a "Random Strip of the Month", a "Peanuts by Schulz" episode called "The Last of the Bunch" and many other things not in quotations.

We're watching the legendary 1986 student film "Bring Me the Head of Charlie Brown" in which the Great Pumpkin puts out a hit on our man Chuck and the Peanuts kids try to collect.

We also check out "The Snoopy Show", season 1, episode 12, which is decidedly less violent.
