About this episode
GGACP celebrates Thanksgiving 2025 by revisiting this ridiculously in-depth 2018 analysis of some genuine "golden turkeys," featuring one of Gilbert and Frank's favorite topics: apes and gorillas. In this episode: Gilbert breaks down “Old Dracula," Jerry Lewis threatens to sue Sammy Petrillo, Raymond Burr turns into a gorilla and Bela Lugosi tries his hand at comedy. PLUS: "Return of the Ape Man"! William "One Shot" Beaudine! The strange case of Barbara Payton! And the unusual proclivities of Lionel Atwill!
