  • Loads of Fun and Wonderful Insights

    So glad I’ve become a fan! Nick’s A&C knowledge is bountiful, and his enthusiasm is infectious. We also get in/depth commentary on co-stars, supporting cast, crew, studios, and the history of 20th century American entertainment from burlesque to vaudeville to film, radio and tv. I always am surprised and delighted how much I learn. Host Jerry has the best sidekick laugh since Ed McMahon. Thank you!

  • Politics ruin everything

    A well researched and otherwise fun podcast ruined by Nick who canNOT keep his stupid politics out of, of all things, an Abbott and Costello podcast. Such an annoying shame. Considering the untimely death of Ward Bond as Karma because he hated Communism?! Unsubscribed from both your YouTube and podcast. So sad. Hey Nick, I disagree with your politics and I wish you nothing but health and happiness. Goodbye.

Talking Points

34: ABBOTT AND COSTELLO MEET THE PODCAST Episode #34: ABBOTT AND COSTELLO MEET DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE
Q: What makes this film stand out among the Abbott and Costello titles in the Universal era?
The discussion points to the blend of straight horror-set pieces with classic slapstick, the unique production choices like the wind-up rooftop chase, and the use of Boris Karloff in a different kind of role, which together give it a distinct, if uneven, character within the series.
