Show Notes

If you're here for a thorough exploration of Bob Hope's comic persona, or perhaps the stifling conformity of mid-century America as represented by the uptight Tadwallader Frutejuce, I'm sorry to disappoint. What I do have on offer, however, is a Zoom conference with my sisters, discussing the new normal, embarrassing parents, avocado tuna toast, and so much more! (Plus a little bit about Bob Hope and Super-Hip)
