Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975)

How We Seeez It! Episode 279 Monty Python and the Holy Grail


“Oh, but you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just
because some watery tart threw a sword at you.” Dennis. 
This month’s anniversary episode is possibly one of the greatest
sketch comedy movies of all time. While also so quotable, most
people know at least a few even if they have never seen the
movie. So, at 50 years old did the Holy Grail hold-up? Did the
low-budget story of King Arthur and his knights still keep us
entertained?  We cover our thoughts on it and there is so
much to talk about in this one, so join us for the discussion and
don’t forget about our cocktails for this episode. Should be some
good ones.      


  As always, mix a drink, have a listen, and let us know
what you think. Or if there is something you watched that we
might enjoy or a can’t miss series. Also please rate and review
show on all your favorite podcast apps.


 


Drinks for the Episode 


"The Green Anointing of Ye Shaky Cup" as read by Brother
Maynard's brother from the Book of Libations 3 parts gin — For
the juniper doth lead the way, and lo, it hath a kick most
righteous. 3-quarters part lemon juice — Squeezed by the hands of
the meek, who were told it was a rite of passage, but were in
fact just interns. 3-eighths part honey syrup — The golden nectar
of the bees, who were not consulted but are buzzing with pride
regardless. 3-twelfths part Green Chartreuse — And they were
stumped, for they knew not why it was not simply called a
quarter, but the number three was sacred, and so it remained. 3
ice cubes — No more, no less. For five is right out, and two
shall not chill the spirit sufficiently. One sprig of thyme —
Plucked from the Holy Garden for garnish and for confusing the
uninitiated.
