Episode Description

Bro, if you thought the Monty Python crew peaked with Holy Grail, you gotta hunt down Yellowbeard immediately, this batshit-insane 1983, Graham Chapman-led pirate comedy is basically the unsung fifth Python film, packed with legit Python royalty (Chapman starring, John Cleese, Eric Idle, plus Cheech & Chong, Madeline Kahn, Marty Feldman, and even David Bowie in a cameo). Chapman plays the nastiest, drunkest, most treacherous pirate ever, staggering around looking for his buried treasure while everyone double-crosses everyone in the most unhinged way possible. It’s crude, ridiculous, quotable as hell (“I’m not yellow, I’m just bearded!”), and feels like Life of Brian crashed into a rum barrel. Total cult madness that deserves way more love, fire it up, and thank me when you’re crying laughing.
