A Day At The Races (Episode 98) - Hot Date with Dan and Vicky

There were so many variables in bringing the nearly two hour Marx Brothers classic A Day At The Races to the screen -- translating tried and tested vaudevillian acts while maintaining a satisfying story arc, shooting on a real racetrack with real horses, keeping the peace between novice comedy director Sam Wood and the cast -- that lawsuits were almost a given.  The one that actually went to court was the case of a Marx Brothers fan who suggested in a fan letter that the Brothers should run a hospital in their next film and when that storyline showed up in this film, the fan sued!

Dan and Vicky discuss their history with the Marx Brothers and their reactions to this classic comedy.  Along they way you'll also hear about some recently seen including Doctor Sleep, The Lighthouse, Frozen 2, Knives Out, JoJo Rabbit, 1917 and Too Funny to Fail: The Dana Carvey Show.
