    47: ABBOTT AND COSTELLO MEET THE PODCAST Episode #45: IT'S MORE BAD AND LEWD THAN BUD AND LOU.
    Feb 8 2026
    In this episode we look at Bob Thomas' terrible book, BUD AND LOU, and at the terrible TV movie it's based upon. It's terrible-ness in abundance as we look at what boils down to Eddie Sherman's revenge. Their manager obviously had a bone to pick with the boys, and especially Lou. And the movie features some of the worst depictions of Abbott and Costello material you will ever see, or WANT to see. Buddy Hackett and Harvey Korman do nobody proud as we deep dive into these messes. Join us, if you dare!

    Join Jerry and Nick as we delve into the sensation caused by those two burlesque comedians in BUCK PRIVATES and the scramble by the other studios to claim some of that gravy. Suddenly everybody seemed to have a "comedy team" in a service comedy. You'll learn about Brown and Carney, Stan and Ollie, Gleason and Durant, Haley and Oakie, and SIlvers and Durante! And for the very first time in 44 episodes Jerry disagrees with Nick about something. :) Join the fun!

    Jerry and I have an in depth discussion about Lou's first project as a producer, A WAVE, A WAC, AND A MARINE (Monogram 1944). You'll hear all about the director, the production, and the incredible cast. Lou paid back some favors here and his loyalty is a thing of beauty, especially in Hollywood. We also discuss Ed Watz's scurrilous article on the boys for COMIQUE magazine, a fantastic documentary about "Gorilla Man" Charlie Gemora, and we read and comment on your always welcome emails (I'm at: Nsm555@msn.com).
