This week, we review the Mel Brooks horror comedy classic, "Young Frankenstein." It's been a while, but all four co-hosts, Dave, Todd, Andruw, and Preston, are here, and they have a wide range of opinions on this movie.

- It might be called "Young Frankenstein," but is the movie older than all four co-hosts?

- Which of the Geeks feels so strongly about this movie that he gives it a score early, in first impressions.

- Which Geek is the grump this episode (maybe not a hard guess)?

- Which Geek has at least one song from the movie, if not the whole soundtrack, downloaded on his phone?

- Which Geek thinks this movie is just *old*?

- Which Geek once again thought this movie would be a slam dunk, like he did with one of his other previous picks -- and was once again wrong?

- What lesson does one Geek have about the origin stories of Dracula and Frankenstein's monster?

- Which Geek compared this Frankenstein spoof to the original, more serious source material?

- Which Geek(s) have possible explanations for why the humor doesn't work for him/them?

- Which Geek explains the connection between one of this movie's early jokes and an Aerosmith song?

- Which Geek explains the motivation of Gene Wilder for accepting the lead role in this movie?

- Which Geek referenced some classic science-fiction literature and unintentionally walked Todd right into an obligatory "Babylon 5" reference?

- Does the one parent in the group feel this movie is kid-friendly?

- What redeeming qualities did Mr. Grumpypants scrounge up for this movie?

- Which Geek lost his internet connection during the recording (maybe not a hard guess if you're a long-time listener)?

- Did one or more Geeks think some level of knowledge of the original Frankenstein source material is necessary, or at least helpful, in the enjoyment of this movie?

- Which Geek cracked himself up just quoting the movie (frequently)?

- Which Geek compared this movie to a Looney Tunes cartoon, and did he mean that in a good way or bad way?

- After 100+ episodes, which Geek can't remember how long the Lightning Round is?

- Which Geek has a personal reason for being bothered by Elon Musk's first name?

- Which Geek said he liked the font used in part of the opening credits?

- Which Geek is reminded, in a good way, of a recently deceased relative when thinking of this movie?

- Which Geek pointed out that this movie reminded him of our late friend & co-host, Dave Teague.

- Which joke from this movie was Dave Teague's last words on this podcast (in episode #092) before he passed away?

- With the wide range of opinions on this movie, were there 0, 1, or 2 perfect scores for this movie, and how low were the not-great scores?

- Which DC superhero movie was randomly chosen for a future episode?

- Which DC character would two of the Geeks love to see on screen (they might get it on TV, eventually)?

- Which Geek is prejudging the "Barbie" movie and lamenting its success?

- And, what did Dave & Todd think about the "Oppenheimer" movie?

Listen now for the answers to these and other monstrous questions, as the Geeks experiment with..."Young Frankenstein"?
