EPISODE 47: IT'S SPRING TRAINING, CHARLIE BROWN plus "MOTION COMICS"

<p>Springtime. And the livin' is easy!</p> <p>Okay, actually things are kind of brutal out there right now. But that makes this the perfect time to self-medicate with more PEANUTS! And episode 47 is just the tonic you need!</p> <p>From 1992, we're watching IT'S SPRING TRAINING, CHARLIE BROWN where Mr. Hennessey from CHARLIE BROWN'S ALL-STARS (episode 1!) offers new uniforms to the baseball team. Yay!  All Chuck and the gang need to do is win a game! AAUUGH!</p> <p>Then we check out two installments of iTunes' 2008 experiment MOTION COMICS, a series of very short episodes produced with "limited animation" (don't let that scare you". We're checking out "The Sore Arm" and "Independence Day". </p> <p>We've also got a "Peanuts by Schulz" short "It's Raining, It's Pouring". And, as always, a Random Strip of the Month. This is a good time to remind you to...*ahem*...SEND IN YOUR RANDOM STRIPS OF THE MONTH!</p> <p>Thank you.</p> <p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PnaCkM9G1cU">"How Snoopy Became the Mascot of Knott's Berry Farm"</a></p> <p><a href="https://incompetech.com/">Thanks to Kevin McLeod in Incompetech.com for creative commons use of his songs "Bass Walker" and "Mining by Moonlight". </a></p> <p>Thanks to Nick Jones for the use of "25% Off".</p> <p><a href="https://soundcloud.com/henry-pope">Thanks to Henry Pope for the use of his "Linus & Lucy Remix".
