Was the Winnebago Man truly the Angriest Man In America? Were any of these board games on your family fun nights in the 1980s? How about some of the forgotten 1970s cartoons?
Episode 141 of the podcast is unique in a few ways. It includes a first, that being a review of a full documentary, The Winnebago Man. Jack Rebney became a viral sensation in the early days of YouTube thanks to his profanity-laden outtakes from a Winnebago commercial shoot in 1989. However, did he deserve the moniker 'the angriest man in America?'
Game nights still exist today. In the 1980s though, before the Internet and the prevalence of video games, a lot of entertainment came from playing board games. We go way Back In the Day to look at a few of the memorable and beloved board games that were released in the 1980s.
Not every cartoon that makes it to television can be a huge success. Some of these come and go and are lost to history. This week's Top 5 looks at forgotten 1970s cartoons. Did you watch any of these?
A new This Week In History and Time Capsule will focus on the wild Paul McCartney death urban legend.
