Episode 72 - Season 3 Wrap Up

It's a wrap up show!

Whenever we do these, Steve and I like to have a guest on.  

This time is no exception, Dan Brodbeck of 'We Have the Technology' (and, well, of my family I suppose) is with us this time around.

What did we talk about?  Look, I have no idea, I'm writing this the morning before we record.

I suppose we will talk about how the show touched on real events of the 1970s.

I suppose we will talk about how the Montreal Canadiens were unbeatable at the time.

I suppose I will mention Mad Men, Steve will mention Columbo and Dan will mention guitars probably.

Thanks for coming on Dan!

Episode 71 - Steve Shines a Black Light on Dave

Pretty sure I just glow in the dark.  

This one is the season finale for season three, and it is really good.

Directed by Stuart Margolin.

'Rockford, that's R O C K F O R D'.

We've got Beth, Dennis, Rocky, hey, grand slam!

All Jimbo had to do was call McGarret.

Shout out to the Taylor Swift fans in this one...

The unnamed speaker as a character is a cool trope that you don't see much of any more.

Rocky met someone on the plane.

The Martin Cove Goons have a new album coming out soon!

Episode 70 - Dave Cracks Steve's Back

I would like to go on record as saying you shouldn't go around cracking anyone's back.

LA running backs, hard to trust them.

Gretchen Corbett is really really great in this one.

Too bad there's no Angel.

We do get Rocky and Jim and Beth and Dennis though.

We get Jon giving us a plane crash update.  Probably his dream job.

The idea of harassment was a new one at the time, it's handled pretty well considering that.

'They've got a good ball club at San Quentin' and 'I don't just fish, I also watch football' are a couple of good Jimbo lines this week.

Episode 76 - Dave and Steve Take a Second Chance

OK, that title is better. Burying the lede here, DIONNE WARWICK! Also GANDY IS BACK. I will stop using so many capitals shortly. We get a St...
