Return of the Jerry - The Jerry Lewis Tapes Vol. III (Patreon)

Thank you yet again for being willing to listen to the two of us go on about Jerry Lewis for longer than we have any right to. You'll be relieved to know this is most likely the final installment, at least for a while. But, oh boy do we go out with a bang....This time around, we watched clips specifically related to Jerry's MDA Labor Day Telethon. We kick things off with a news story on his battle with a group of dissenters who called themselves Jerry's Orphans, followed by Jerry getting tough with Phil Donahue on the same issue. There's also some audio of Howard Stern criticizing Jerry, as well as a tense fan interaction (a real one this time!) Then we watch clips from various broadcasts of the telethon, mostly from the 80's, where Jerry belittles the crew, before we get to the final years and witness Jerry and Ed McMahon gradually loose their faculties on network television. There will a YouTube video that will sync up ALL of the video clips that we played during this episode. It's going to take me some time to put it all together though. So, in the meantime, if there's a particular clip that we watched during this episode that you'd like to see, along with our synced reactions (a la the tooth video from yesterday), let us know and I will upload it as an individual video! Thanks again for all of your support and for bearing with us while we devote far too much time to this man. The Night Moves ep is coming soon as is our Mel Gibson story. Stay tuned!
