You've Earned That Combat Pay - Week of 11/19/25
The Fellowship is pleased to present our discussion of the career of legendary actor Dick Van Dyke. We wanted to celebrate him since he turns 100 in a few weeks, and he's done some great stuff to boot. Plus our usual crazy talk, geek news, and tangents🙂.
What we're up to this week:
Watching a lot of YouTube, The Cocoanuts (1929) on Tubi, old TV & movie tangents, The Beast of Hollow Mountain (1956), The VelociPastor (2017), working on next year's topics, cutting back on bodycam videos
Please note: no new episodes until the beginning of January - happy holidays to all, and we'll see you on the flipside (or in our Discord server 🙂)
Quick correction: Coolio was in Dracula 3000 (2004).
And I'll save you some trouble: the famous elephant story [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qqE_WmagjY] - you're welcome 🙂
Come see the articles we talked about in the Geek News segment on the website [https://news.thefellowshipofthegeeks.net/]!
Producer's note: We record using Discord since Skype went away and, while Discord is much easier to use, it's not perfect. You may notice some brief dropouts from any of us at any time during the show. And unfortunately, as we're kind of a "recorded live" show, there's not much we can do to "fix" it. We hope the message gets through even when you miss a word or two along the way.
