Until 1917, there was no way of knowing if the red you saw at a stop
sign looked like the red other people saw. Jeff and Vinnie take the
colorblindness test: you can, too, at
http://colorvisiontesting.com/ishihara.htm. Plus, a quiz on Air Jordan
collector Ferdinand Marcos!

WEEK THIRTY-FOUR: Jack Kirby
This week Jeff and Vinnie talk almost exclusively about Jack Kirby, the
king of comics, born 100 years ago today. Kirby gave the world Captain
America, the Fantastic Four, the X-Men, and the Hulk! Jeff quizzes
Vinnie of the Kirby deep cuts, like the Newsboy Legion and Annihilius.

WEEK THIRTY-THREE: Sherlock Holmes
Holmes in the house! 1917 saw the release of the final Sherlock Homes novel, His Last Bow, so Jeff and Vinnie dive into Holmes trivia, history, and films. Plus happy birthday to Mel Ferrer (who is not José Ferrer), surprise egg videos, and how Christopher Reeve could burp the alphabet.
