Smurf Racer with October K Santarelli

Play Comics

There’s something just so endearing about The Smurfs. Mostly I think it’s because it’s just such a simple concept. Little blue dudes have an adventure and it all wraps up nicely by the end. Seems pretty safe and kid friendly doesn’t it?

Yeah, that’s what I thought too. Good thing I have October K Santarelli here to help blow some of those ideas out of the water. Listen in as we take a dive into Smurf history and explore some of the dark secrets of these little blue demons.

Learn such things as:

• Why aren’t there more girl Smurfs?
• Do Smurfs understand the concept of mortality?
• Can we do a whole episode without subbing a curse word with Smurf?
• And so much more!
