Greetings, fellow blockheads! In 136 we've got Ford...and also Ford!
Yep, "A Charlie Brown Christmas" was the first animated Peanuts special, but did you know it wasn't the first animated Peanuts? We're taking a look at the 1950s and 60's animated Peanuts promos for "The Tennessee Ernie Ford Show" and for Ford cars...a company founded by a guy named Henry Ford. So. Much. Ford.
We've also got a "Peanuts by Schulz" short titled "Come on, Snoopy!" and Ths Month in Peanuts History.
Thanks for listening!
Thanks to Henry Pope for the use of his "Linus & Lucy" remix.
Thanks to Sean Courtney for the "This Month in Peanuts History" theme.
Thanks to Nick Jones for the use of his song "25% Off".
