Ep. 60: Here Comes Cookie (1935) or ‘The Logic of Illogic’
About this episode
Zach welcomes back podcaster Jon Eckstrom (Jon of a All Trades) to engage in a rousting rumble with the logic of illogic as the two unpack the daffy and dizzy delight one may find courtesy of Burns and Allen in their 1935 film, HERE COMES COOKIE!
Grab your lamb chops and settle in for a time as the boys unpack the origin of George Burns and Gracie Allen, marvel at the frenetic pace and madness within the film, dissect the brilliance of Gracie as a performer, delight in the madness of the many Vaudevillians strewn about the picture, get awestruck by the drumming prowess of Jack Powell, and discuss how the film and the comedy of George and Gracie inspires folks to this day.
