P51! This one is pretty much the poster child for 'don't lean your history from a tv show'.   As much as Steve and I love the P51 Mustang, Yamamoto was shot down by P38s. I can see some real MASH connections this week, like two different episodes too! I don't think Yamamoto was called the Hawk.   Andre Dawson was, however, the hawk. Hal Holbrook, in a robe, in Midway. TJ is a creep. The Pacific War isn't thought of as one that displaced civilians, but it did. Conrad directed this one! A Corsair could never beat a Mustang. Lard is pretty reasonable here, and General Moore has no idea what's going on. mp3 download [http://archive.org/download/bb-30_202605/BB_30.mp3] ?max-results=30

Episode 29 - Steve & Dave vs a 200 lb Gorilla

Ahh yes, the old 'enlisted man who does not want to be an officer' trope.  It's hard not to love though, the idea of Andy as an officer is great. Directed by Dana Elcar. I'm kind of warming to Lard on this rewatch. We get a Red Buel reference.  No autocomplete, not the freaking drink, stop it... We talk a bit about Tokyo Rose. The running joke that TJ runs his mixture so rich because he sucks is funny. As with much of the first half of season 2, this one is pretty good! mp3 download [http://archive.org/download/bb-29_202603/BB29.mp3] ?max-results=30

Episode 28 - A Daveine Steve

SEASON 2!. John Laroquette is really good in this one. A bit heavy on the Orientalism this week. Oh now it is officially called the Black Sheep Squadron. Yup, we're back with more European theatre bombing runs passed off as Pacific, more useless brawls and more, let's face it, awesomeness from the Black Sheep. "If Soon Teck Oh looked at me like that I'd volunteer too". This is not the birth of the Kamikazes, but it's a good story. I like the sort of mirroring they've done this time.  We see that life on a Japanese base isn't that different than life on Lacava. Wait, so in this universe there IS a a Vella Lavella. Chaos theory butterfly stuff. What's with Father John's accent?  Why is Father John's accent?  How is Father John's accent? Gutterman is gone :-(. mp3 download [http://archive.org/download/bb-28_202602/BB_28.mp3] ?max-results=30

It's the Christmas season. We're doing a Christmas show, if you don't like it, well, first off, bah humbug, secondly, what did you pay for the podcast? Steve, Jon and I welcome some guests this episode: Those guests are, in no particular order:  Anthony Marco from Best Episode Ever [https://bestepisodeever.com]. Jeff Andrews from the 70s TV Detectives [https://linktr.ee/70sTVDetectives]. Chris Cooling from the Forgotten TV podcast [https://forgottentv.podbean.com]. All three now join my brother Dan from the We Have the Technology Podcast [https://havethetechnology.blogspot.com] as official friends of the show. We heated up a Swanson TV dinner, gathered around the 7 foot long cabinet tv, that Pete Campbell will tell you, is a beautiful piece of furniture that Wilt Chamberlain could lie down in (As Kenny Cosgrove reminds us, why would he?) and talked about a time before Jon was born. Thanks to Anth, Jeff and Chris! mp3 download [http://archive.org/download/jimbo98/jimbo98.mp3] ?max-results=30

Episode 26 - Special Episode, 1978 in Television

It's between seasons 1 and 2 of Baa Baa Black Sheep. That means it's 1978! We decided to invite a couple of our friends on to tap about 1978 in tv, including Best Episode Ever [https://bestepisodeever.com]'s Anthony Marco and the 70s Detectives' [https://linktr.ee/70sTVDetectives] Jeff Andrews. Boy NBC sucked then. Lots of stuff sucked then. Jon reminds us that WKRP did start then! Habs won the cup, so there's that. Mostly we just hope you liked our little trip down memory lane.  Might be another soon, before moving on to Season 5 of Rockford and Season 2 of Black Sheep. mp3 download [http://archive.org/download/jimbo-97/Jimbo97.mp3] ?max-results=30
