Welcome back listeners to the class of 2025/26. It’s 1959 and Robin Williams is trying to teach critical thinking to a repressed, privileged generation of young men. What could go wrong? Well there’s the extended version of the film Justin watched but Ronnie didn’t know existed. Also St. Elsewhere, yearbook sponsorship, carpe diem, trophy case dead kids, the censorship of erotic poetry, sucking marrow, spelunking in the dark, gay vibes, Safe Schools compliance videos, stalking a girl, sexual assault of a sleeping girl, barbaric yawps, soccer poetry, imitating saxophone playing, the Beat Generation, walking, marching, defacing statues, spanking fetishes, gag reflexes while choking on a bone, the dad from That 70’s Show, Laura Flynn Boyle, more violations of Safe Schools, and that little bitch Cameron. Oh, and there will be no anal.
Exit ticket: Justin ties Mr. Keating’s message to that of LaSheryl is a lovely tribute. Have some tissues handy.
