Marcus 3:04:39 PM
I liked the Odyssey better when it was called "O Brother Where Art Thou?"
Roffleaphonic 3:04:52 PM
Flock is burdening my red light runging sad to say...

Roffleaphonic 3:07:54 PM
Friday morning Odyssey indeed.
Jen Redlights (host) 3:08:41 PM
i do like those weedian comps. touch and go usually but with some gems on every one.
Jen Redlights (host) 3:09:03 PM
someone told me that they are showing Odyssey at 4:30am near me so they can fit in more iMAX showings.
Jon Solomon 3:09:54 PM
MC and I both liked it a lot but it was oppressive. I felt like I had been through some stuff after! The lady sitting next to me went to the bathroom about an hour+ in and...never came back?
Roffleaphonic 3:10:29 PM
She did go to the bathroom...lol
Roffleaphonic 3:10:53 PM
at home
Jen Redlights (host) 3:11:10 PM
she threw in the towel after an hour? violence or other?
David Shortell 3:11:10 PM
"The Odyssey" is showing in Rutherford tomorrow. (The 1997 version, that is).

Marcus 3:11:16 PM
Some times you need to use the bathroom at home...
Jen Redlights (host) 3:11:21 PM
@bravedelay hahahahaha
Jon Solomon 3:12:21 PM
Jen, I have no idea! She and I switched seats before the movie started so MC and I could sit together and she did tell me she preferred to be closer to the aisle but I didn't expect her to bail.
bravedelay 3:12:30 PM
@Jen that was how I described a Besnard Lakes concert I went to in DC years back. Felt like I was in a clothes dryer full of bricks (and it was great)
Roffleaphonic 3:12:45 PM
@Marcus, I feel a girls pain, because I don't sit in public toilets.
Mats Sabbath 3:12:56 PM
Any brown notes hit in The Odyssey? That's what does it, as godheadSilo live in mid 90s attest.
Marcus 3:13:21 PM
@roffle: I was thinking about the times when you gotta shower right after
Roffleaphonic 3:13:54 PM
That's in the the bathroom at home too Marcus, :)
Jen Redlights (host) 3:13:58 PM
@bravedelay !!
Jen Redlights (host) 3:14:08 PM
@jon she missed out!
Roffleaphonic 3:16:10 PM
I had a colonoscopy this week. Hitting close to home Marcus. lol
Marcus 3:17:01 PM
When I had mine I had to switch sides of the bed with my wife during prep...those extra seconds mattered
David Shortell 3:17:12 PM
For a cheesier version, watch "Ulysses" (1954) starring Kirk Douglas.
David Shortell 3:17:17 PM
For an extremely boring version, watch “The Return” (2024) starring Ralph Fiennes.
David Shortell 3:17:27 PM
The shortest version of Homer’s Odyssey: https://youtube.com/watch?v=rKMgPRGEnvU

David Shortell 3:26:56 PM
The 1997 two-part Odyssey TV-movie may not have been great, but it did feature Michael J. Pollard as the wind god Aeolus.
Jon Solomon 3:30:47 PM

Mats Sabbath 3:38:38 PM
Pinch Points good stuff
iConJohn 3:39:04 PM
Jen and Chatters, rigged that Snooper tune and went down the ole rabbit hole. They played the Foto Club in Philly of which I'd never heard. Any comments about this venue?
iConJohn 3:39:33 PM
Digged the Snooper tune!
Jen Redlights (host) 3:39:52 PM
Snooper is so great. I haven't been to the venue, though!
Jen Redlights (host) 3:40:01 PM

Mike Lupica 3:44:26 PM
(Jack Burton in 'Big Trouble in Little China' voice): "Everybody relax, I'm here."
Carlos Ramone 3:44:56 PM
Jen..I forget the person who subbed last week but she played Itchy and the Nits…good to see that she had been taking notes on the show
aiffrig 3:45:27 PM

Jen Redlights (host) 3:45:45 PM

Jen Redlights (host) 3:45:58 PM

Jen Redlights (host) 3:46:07 PM
@mike was it the ye-ye?
iConJohn 3:50:10 PM
@Jen That was my first listen to a Joan Denver show. Not disappointed! Is her name a play on John Denver?
Mike Lupica 3:54:43 PM
Oh yeah, this Oblivians record has the up-in-the-aisles energy that lets a sinner know redemption.
Marcus 3:55:08 PM
If the name of the show is "Hee-Haw!" then were are having a Hootenanny
aiffrig 3:55:25 PM
death blow to bop ?
Jen Redlights (host) 3:55:25 PM
@iConJohn, I'll pass along the kind words! And i'm going to go with yes... ;)
Jen Redlights (host) 3:55:38 PM

Marcus 3:56:19 PM
Mats: a Minnesota Hot Dish?
Mats Sabbath 3:57:37 PM
Marcus yum
Carlos Ramone 3:57:48 PM
I find it hard to believe that the replacements may have been Hee Haw fans
Jen Redlights (host) 4:00:06 PM
they seem like family TV fans, why not
David Shortell 4:01:36 PM
I somehow missed out on the Oblivians in their heyday but I saw them reunite at Kearny's Irish American Hall in 2010.
Carlos Ramone 4:01:36 PM
Could be.. the Dead Milkmen did name drop Minnie Pearl
David Shortell 4:03:29 PM
I preferred “Hootenanny” to “Hee Haw”: http://tvparty.com/rechootenany.html
Marcus 4:06:18 PM
"Hootenanny Live at the Village Gate!" (1963) somehow found its way into my vinyl collection
Marcus 4:06:44 PM
May have been my parents
Mats Sabbath 4:07:05 PM

Jen Redlights (host) 4:08:15 PM
