Episode 103 - Frank Dietz




The Damn Dirty Drive-In show

Summary: Frank Dietz is known in “Mystery Science Theater 3000” circles for his role as Detective Frank Sorrell in “Zombie Nightmare.” But chances are, if you saw and loved a Disney animated movie of the late ‘90s or early ‘00s, Dietz played a part as a talented animator: “Hercules,” “Mulan,” “Tarzan,” “Fantasia 2000,” “Atlantis: The Lost Empire.” Dietz also reminisces over working with Adam West (“Batman 66”, “Family Guy”). Ryan is out sick this week, so stand-up comic Robb Maynard joins Greg and Kate in the studio. The podcast gang celebrates Rifftrax’s successful Kickstarter to bring “Krull” and “Space Mutiny” to the big screen. And in the Mini Soda Review, the podcast gang drinks “Old Dominion,” a delicious root beer from Virginia. In “Music! Science! Cats!,” Kate explains how chimerism fuses embryos into single organisms that are half-and-half rarities. Robb and Greg review the Rachel McAdams/Jason Bateman comedy, “Game Night.” All this, and a BBC nature special where Sir David Attenborough says, “fuck it,” and fracks a sperm whale for its oil, on this week’s episode of the Revival League Podcast!
