Episode 41 - Kenny & Company
1976’s KENNY AND COMPANY, written, directed, produced, shot and edited by Don Coscarelli tells the story of young Kenny as he comes of age in 70s southern California, fighting bullies, having his first crush, and dressing up as a horrific bear-pig hybrid for Halloween. And he skateboards!
Kevin and Mike are joined by pop culture writer Chris Cummins (who also hosts the great Twitch show Sci-Fi Explosion) to discuss the film, crazy stories from their own unsupervised childhoods, bullies in Woonsocket, RI vs. Philadelphia, Kevin's algebra teacher calling his parents to tell them that Kevin was a Satanist for playing Dungeons & Dragons, "the cool teacher", and the time Kevin almost got Mike fired from his janitorial job at the weird Catholic high school that Kevin attended.
A digressive, meandering episode to discuss a digressive, meandering movie!
