Ep.118 – The Three Stooges No. 1 (1953)

The Lighter Side of Head Trauma!

Jul 27, 2020

This time on the Couch: Mike, James, and Shée learn about friendship and eye-gouging with 1953's The Three Stooges no. 1! It's a collection of tales featuring everyone's favorite trio of careless knuckleheads who should've died a thousand times by now, Moe, Larry, and Shemp! The 1950s were a decade of economic prosperity, and Americans were eager to point and laugh at those who were struggling to generate a livable income. The Stooges were happy to oblige, trying everything from running a diner into the ground to blowing up the fireworks factory they just bought, all while the government does nothing to help these three adults with severe cognitive disabilities. But don't worry, because they're protected by the power of their love for one another. And probably a whole lot of black market painkillers. So shove a fork in a power outlet, fall out of a window, have a cinder block dropped on your head, whatever. Nothing can harm you as long as you've got your two best chums with you. It's the Darkseid's Couch Code!
