RTTP #56 - False Lead, or, The Brief Not-So-Wondrous Life of Jean-Pierre

We have a lot of fun here at Return to the Past, but every one in
a while, an episode comes along that leaves us scratching our
heads.


 


Is it Code Lyoko's attempt at being topical and political (it
features both anthrax and Tamagotchi), recycled from a script for
a mid-90s Jim Carrey movie that would never be, or simply an
adaptation of a NyQuil fever dream the writers had one night?
We'll probably never know.


 


Were Tamagotchi still a thing in 2006? Why does one of the
government agents sound like Michael Jaleel White? Is there a
God? Why did Danimals retire all their animal mascots except for
the monkey when clearly the Strawberry Kiwi alligator was the far
superior spokesman? These and many other questions will not be
answered on our show today, with Mary, Ben, David, and our
special celebrity guest, Mary's dog.

We are again calling on our listeners to do all they can to fight
back against injustice at the U.S. border and in the immigration
system: https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2018/06/how-you-can-fight-family-separation-at-the-border.html
