Archie Bunker Goes to a Gay Bar

“The Boys’ Night Out” (February 13, 1983)

More than a hundred episodes later (of All in the Family but also of this podcast), we return to the Archie Bunker primary universe to find out if everyone's favorite bigot got over his homophobia. The answer: kind of? But that is probably just the result of season after season of broadcast TV sanding off his rougher edges.

Did you guys have trouble putting up the correct version again? When I listened to it, I swear I heard a discussion of Anne Meara without a single mention of ALF.

Robyn Pavlakovich

I wish I remembered it better!

Pool with Depeche Mode sounds awesome

Yeah, I saw the Canadian link but don't have a VPN. Would much appreciate a link to the episode!

Timothy Burleson

I have just not successfully downloaded it onto my iPad and can confirm yes

Drew Mackie

No. Clearly an oversight because I had too much on my plate last night.

Drew Mackie

I watched on the CBC website using a VPN. But I can send you the link if you'd like to watch.

Question related to Spaces - is this available on iPad? I am not finding it in the app store, am worried that it's only on iPhone, not iPad. I am a blended OS family, Android phone, IOS tablet. So definitely not available on my phone, at the moment...

Is there some parallel-universe Google that I'm not cool enough to access? Can't find this episode anywhere.

Timothy Burleson

...are you sure that first article you linked is, in fact, about Caroll O'Connor being in charge of <i>Frasier</i>

Seth Aaron Hershman has they she pronouns
