It's a Podcast, Charlie Brown

In 112, Snoopy is puzzled and comes up short. Sally is starry-eyed and marshmallow-deprived. And Peppermint Patty's scoop goes splat.

We're checking out "The Snoopy Show" S3, episode 11 and "Peanuts by Schulz" episode "A Day With Snoopy". Then since it's March, we look at This Month in Peanuts History...for March!

What are the odds?

Good grief! Join us, won't you?

Hey, Peanuts fans! It's episode 111! Like, "Hey! We're #1!" but three times!

And it very well could be. We've got in this episode: news and feeback for February; a Random Strip of the Month; and a discussion of the new Apple TV+ special "Snoopy Presents: Welcome Home, Franklin".

Does it get better than that? I doublt it.

Look to the sky and hold onto your marbles! It's episode 110 of IT'S A PODCAST, CHARLIE BROWN. Then write a thank you note to your grandmother. Of course, she'll be confused because she's not a podcaster. I mean, probably.

Anyway. In this episode, we've got THE SNOOPY SHOW, S3, episode 10. We also check out a PEANUTS BY SCHULZ episode titled "Being Nice" and look back at This Month in Peanuts History.

Now you all be nice and check out the episode. (See what I did there?"

It's another big ol' beagle smooch in 109 as we check out THE SNOOPY SHOW, S3, episode 9. Snoopy the peacemaker! Snoopy the referee! Snoopy the...well, being himself, actually.

Then we've got a Random Strip of the Month and check out the latest news and feedback.

Check out my (not really Peanuts-y at all) Goodnight 2023 year-in-revew here.

Another holiday season is upon us. In episode 107, instead of going out to find a scraggly little tree that just needs a little love, I found author William Johnson (The Complete History of Peanuts on Parade: A Tribute to Charles M. Schulz) and dragged him inside instead. We have a wide-ranging discussion of Peanut-y goodness. A panoply of Peanuts, if you will. 

We also look at this month in Peanuts news and enjoy a Random Strip of the Month.

Not a bad way to spend this holiday month. Join us!

It's the holiday season! Who better to spend it with than Snoopy! It would be weird if "The Snoopy Show" said "Bert and Ernie" or something (not that I don't love them too). Fortunately, they went with the beagle and we're checking out Season 3, episode 13 (Yes, we're skipping some episodes. We'll fix it later.) "Happiness is Holiday Traditions".

We also check out a "Peanuts by Schulz" episode called "Just for Love" and revisit This Month in Peanuts History.

As the World Famous Grocery Clerk says, we're "doing a little heavy reading tonight". We survey a sampling of the times "Peanuts" appeared in the iconic "Mad Magazine". 

We've also got This Month in Peanuts History for November. And an episode of "Peanuts by Schulz" titled "A Fascinating Friend".

So, don't get mad. Get listening.

In 101, we check out "The Snoopy Show", S3, episode 4 - which is apparently a celebration of all things snail mail. Rememer snail mail? Kids, go ask your parents. The plot of each story in the episode hinges on at least one letter sent through regular ol' US Mail. Coincidence? Yeah, probably. Or maybe not...hmmm.

We've also got a "Random Strip of the Month", plus your feedback on peanut-y things and news from the world of Peanuts!

Good grief, that's a lot!

Good grief!

Episode 99 features the usual root beer-and-pizza level joy: news from the Peanuts universe, a Random Strip of the Month - this time from friend of the podcast and series director for "The Snoopy Show" Rob Boutilier.

And then....

Recently, I read Monte Schulz's 2022 novel "Metropolis". Since the remit of this podcast is anything and everything in AND around the "Peanuts" universe, I decided that was close enough. So let's talk about it!

So, occasionally on the podcast, I speak directly to the series director of the Apple TV+ series "The Snoopy Show" Rob Boutilier.

And it turns out he was listening.

And he said he'd be happy to come on the podcast.

And he did! On this very episode! Episode 98! And I do my best to make him not regret that!

Listen and see if I pulled it off.

We've also got This Month in Peanuts History an an episode of "Peanuts by Schulz" called "Nobody Likes Me".

Look what the tide brought in! In episode 95, we discuss "The Snoopy Show", season 3, episode 1. This episode features sandy beaches, a bit of thievery, and a license to print joy and laughter. Not a bad way to kill an hour or so.

When you think of Peanuts, what's the first thing that comes to mind?

Wrong!

Obviously, the answer is Shermy! The OG Peanuts superstar! Peanuts wouldn't exist without him. If that October 2, 1950 strip was just a boy and girl silently watch a round-headed kid walk by, also silently, it's unlikely Peanuts would have become the cultural icon it is today. I mean, at least Shermy thinks so probably.

In this episode, we take a few minutes to break down who Shermy Plepler was and his impact (Or lack thereof. Let's be honest.) on the strip.

We also look at This Month in Peanuts History for June and watch another "Peanuts by Schulz" titled "The Mysteries of Love".

Good grief! That's a lot of show! Join us, won't you?
