As a kid, it was a good Saturday afternoon if I had a bowl of Cheetos and a collection of Peanuts comic strips in front of me. Charlie Brown and the gang were friends to me. (I especially identified with Linus.) I really liked the week-long story arcs and the brilliant mix of humor, frustration and perseverance of these lil' folks. And, honestly, I'm a little sad Shermie never took off as a main character. Animated Peanuts was great too. The airing of a Peanuts TV special was a big event in my house. I was pretty young, but I remember seeing RACE FOR YOUR LIFE, CHARLIE BROWN in 1977 in a movie theater. I know I watched A BOY NAMED CHARLIE BROWN over and over on cable. BON VOYAGE, CHARLIE BROWN (And Don't Come Back!) is a wonderful movie, animated or otherwise. And I don't think a year has gone by that I haven't watched the Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas specials. I pretty much have the dialogue memorized, much to the chagrin of my wife and kids. To date, Charlie Brown and the gang have appeared in five feature films and dozens of TV specials, including the series "This is America, Charlie Brown" and "The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Show". And on this podcast, we're going to watch them all. We'll discover what we liked and what we didn't. What worked and what didn't. There are many layers to a Peanuts special. Even in two dimensions, these characters are fully fleshed-out humans - and one beagle - with all the fears, anxieties, joys and laughs we all experience. Let's explore those together.

    152: CHARLES SCHULZ'S FAVORITE CARTOONIST PERCY CROSBY
    Apr 10 2026

    Charles Schulz inspired countless cartoonists. But who inspired him? One was Percy Crosby who drew the comic "Skippy" which in its day was as popular as "Peanuts" would be decades later. In episode 152, we take a look at Skippy and the tumultuous life of Percy Crosby. Chocolate and peanut butter might be two great tastes that taste great together, but Crosby and the Skippy peanut butter brand...not so much. Listen to find out why.

    151: I THINK THAT SHALL NEVER SEE A THING SO LOVELY AS THE KITE-EATING TREE
    Mar 10 2026

    Trees. Majestic sentinels towering over us, gazing wisely down at us from high above.

    Waiting to steal our stuff.

    Okay. Not all our stuff. Just Charlie Brown's stuff. And just one particular tree. The kite-eating tree. And all it really wants is a kite. Charlie Brown's kite. Even in a strip where a dog flies a plane, the kite eating tree is pretty surreal. Especially when it grins.

    So, in episode 151, we explore the kite-eating tree a little. Plus, we look at another episode of "Snoopy in Space", a Random Strip of the Month, and this month's news from in and around the Peanuts universe.

    150: LOVE, PEANUTS STYLE
    Feb 10 2026

    It's February, the month when valentines torture the gang in Peanuts Town. In episode 150, we spend a little time looking at loves won (that part doesn't take long) and lost (that takes a lot longer; get comfortable).

    Plus, we have This Month in Peanuts History, news, and a Random Strip of the Month.

    Grab a box of chocolates (no coconut, of course!) and enjoy!
