1991, Ep. 3
Jeff, did you get the audio pulled from Don't Tell Mom The Babysitter's Dead so we can include it?
I'm right on top of that, Rose!
Yes, yes you are. Today we're on the cult classic Christina Applegate (not to be confused with Christina Aguilera) vehicle Don't Tell Mom The Babysitter's Dead. Co-starring the former Knox Overstreet, Josh Charles, and with a sneaky early career David Duchovny (complete with Binaca spray and Miami vice sports coat), this cornball comedy is surprisingly fun and sweet still today.
We cover:
* Christina Applegate vs. Christina Aguilera
* Computers: here to stay? (comes with LotusNotes)
* And why no one smokes in movies anymore
