Captain EO. MacGruber review. The Worst Movie Ever? Black Knight, South of Heaven West of Hell. "Run for fun? What the hell kind of fun is that?" Standing Room Only. The Top 10 Hits of 1992. Dead or Alive Diff'rent Strokes edition. Blaire or Jo? Babes of Yesteryear: Mia Sara, Kathleen Turner and Sue Lyon. Straight Talk. Diamondback's bullpen. Four wheelers. Undercover in the world of Real Superheroes. An announcement of a hiatus. All unscripted, all passionate. (download this episode as an .mp3. Direct download link located at the end of the show notes.)
We'll get this right out of the way, before we go any further. Kevin Peace is on hiatus from the show. Once you listen to the episode you'll realize it's actually an assignment to infiltrate the secret, sometimes sleazy world of real life superheroes. Kevin will return from time to time during the year to keep us updated on his escapades. The Zen and Peace Show will live on, just less frequently. This episode was recorded at the beginning of June and is a quick snapshot of the Pop Culture World at that time. Gary Coleman had just recently passed and we were still reeling. We pay tribute to a man short of stature but not of character with a Dead or Alive game based on the cast of his breakout show, "Diff'rent Strokes." Who would have guessed that Todd Bridges would be the one to outlive his television siblings? We also play a game that looks back at the horrible hits of 1992, the year Zen graduated high school. Kids born that year are now graduating themselves, a depressing fact not lost on our cast.
