21 “No Snow and No Ice” ("The Cocoanuts" Deep Dive)
The Marx Brothers Council Podcast - A podcast by Matthew Coniam, Noah Diamond, Bob Gassel
After avoiding its 90th anniversary, Matthew pushes Noah and Bob into the pool for a deep dive into The Cocoanuts. Why did contemporary critics consider it their best? Why does Margaret Dumont get more laughs than Zeppo? Who the hell is Penelope? Noah connects a Groucho line to Star Trek: The Next Generation, Bob brings up Philip Seymour Hoffman, and Matthew is certain one shot was cut for a 1984 British TV broadcast. It’s appointment podcasting!
