WEEK FIFTEEN: Marcel Duchamp

After an extended tangent on Jeff's film career as an extra, he and Vinnie without distraction dive into Bloody April, where the Red Baron shoots down dozens of British aircraft. And then after a tangent about John Denver and the Muppets with no distraction they jump into a talk about the explosion of the week, this time in Pennsylvania. Then onto Marcel DuChamp's Fountain, the all-time greatest work of modern art, which -- spoiler alert -- is a urinal. Then a quiz about the companies founded in 1917, and a epic discussion of Diamond Jim Brady and his massive, turtle-eating appetite.

WEEK FOURTEEN: Declaring War

It’s a week of tragedy A Hundred Years Ago Today, as the United States is entering World War One. In a lesser tragedy, Pepsi is advertised for breakfast. In what’s not at all a tragedy and not even an
inconvenience, Jeff goes to Vinnie’s house to record, instead of Vinnie driving to Jeff’s place. In what could be filed under “tragedy“ if that’s how you arrange your DVD collection, Jeff and Vinnie also talk about Godfather II, and discover one of them does a pretty credible Crypt Keeper.

WEEK THIRTEEN: The NHL

Week 13 of The 1917 Podcast brings Jeff and Vinnie to the introduction of the National Hockey League! Vinnie's seen four hockey games, but Jeff saw one last year, so they're both really experts in the world's fastest sport. Plus birthdays, a quiz, and more!
