06/19/24 Show 212 : Stop Moaning And Climb The Roof To Fix The Antenna
Manage episode 424524118 series 2812339
with today’s New York Times report that Robert F. Kennedy’s wife, Cheryl Hines of “Curb Your Enthusiasm” notoriety was attacked by the former’s pet emu, we’re coaxed (well, forced) to recall the heyday of the late Rod Hull’s ill-behaved emu (above, left). Before Hull perished in a rooftop antenna-adjusting accident (THAT’S WHAT THEY WANT US TO BELIEVE), his Emu assaulted Michael Parkinson, Johnny Carson and probably a lot of persons who weren’t TV hosts, either. Today’s planned 2 hour salute to Hull & Emu was sadly scrapped by my new partners at E### V###### R#### who complained no one would be familiar with Hull (that’s the point of the episode, FFS) and modern audiences would not understand someone falling to their death while adjusting a TV aerial (they might have a point here).
