On today’s show, we're journeying back to early June 1929 and the production of Stan and Babe’s fourth all-talking comedy, Perfect Day. To help Patrick discuss the history of this famous comedy is classic comedy aficionado Chris Seguin, linking up across the Atlantic from his home in Toronto, Canada.

In addition to discussing the production and merits of Perfect Day, Chris and Patrick discuss the signing of Harry Langdon to the Hal Roach Studio, which was happening around the time of the film's production.

Our coverage of Laurel and Hardy's career as a comedy team brings us to the Spring/Summer of 1929 and their cameo appearance in M-G-M's 'spectacular' feature film, The Hollywood Revue of 1929. This was the boys' first appearance in a feature-length picture and marked a significant moment in their history.
