Description

Let’s face it, without a skeleton, you’d be a puddle of floppy wet stuff. Plus, without skeletons, Halloween decorations would be 90% pumpkin, and that would be stupid as hell. Let’s talk about these terrifying latices of rigid calcium and other stuff we all use to wobble our haggard wet gets across this miserable earth, and also, our favorite instances of skeletal and bone-adjacent characters in pop culture. You probably won’t learn anything about the human body this episode, but you might learn something about human bodies that have posthumously appeared in some classic films.


Intro contains clips from Andrew Gold’s “Spooky Scary Skeletons” (which was recorded in 1996, despite regularly being associated with a 1929 Disney short) Stevie Wonder’s “Skeletons” and an excerpt from Return of the Living Dead, which is an absolute blast of a film and if you haven’t seen it, get on that.
