In this episode, after way too many delays, the randomizer kicks
off this year's Patreon Request Month by going all the way back to
2009 to pick E.J. Riley's request for a documentary about two
legendary brothers who became Walt Disney's personal staff
songwriters in the 1960s. Over the course of their illustrious
decades-spanning careers, they composed such all-time classic
beloved evergreen masterpieces as "Fidelity Feduciary Bank," "Let's
Put It Over with Grover," "The Boomps Song" and of course
"Detroit." But beneath those hummable earworms, all was not well
for Richard and Robert, for theirs is a story that involves bitter
personality clashes, familial estrangement, post-traumatic stress
disorder and songs with titles like "Rutabega Rag," "The Ugly Bug
Ball," "A Most Befuddling Thing," "Va-Va-Va-Veee (For Victory),"
"Don't Shoot the Hooey to Me, Louie," "Protocoligorically Correct,"
"The BunnyBee Song," "Dolly Of PaPali," "Kiddy-Widdy-Winkies" and
yes those song titles are all real. Join Tony Goldmark, Sydney
Agnew, Ryan Hipp and Veronika Vexed as they hang with THE BOYS: THE
SHERMAN BROTHERS' STORY!
