Ep. 31: 'Taxi'- 04x16- "Jim and the Kid"

Trigger/Content Warning: Race and Police Brutality come up for just a second in this episode of Taxi, and we discuss how nonsensical it was. The discussion lasts for just about 2 minutes, but it's there. This week on the podcast, Leo and Tim dive into "Taxi," an ensemble sitcom about a group of cab drivers that work for a tyrannical boss played by Danny DeVito. We discuss strangely intense jokes, Christopher Lloyd's almost universal appeal, and why sitcoms were so politically and socially intense in the 1970s. Does this episode hold up?
