Minute 10 - The Old Salt

<p>Hello and welcome to Cabin Boy Minute: Minute 10!</p> <p>In this momentous episode Nathanial continues to wander through Backtown until he meets the old salt (Earl Hofert/David Letterman). We note additional residents of Backtown and their impact on our perception of time, take a close look at the general store (they have fudgesicles!), learn a bit about sock monkeys, as well as a bit about Mr. Letterman. We discuss the impact of Letterman’s performance on the popularity and perpetuation of Cabin Boy, and the emotional sacrifice made by Resnick.</p> <p>We then answer the questions of who wins the scene, who is most embarrassed, what would make the scene more palatable, calculate GPM, decide on funny/not funny, relate the scene to our fool’s journey and ponder whether familiarity breeds respect or contempt.</p> <p>You can watch David Letterman and a parade of mid-90’s celebrities spoof his acting at the 67th Academy Awards here: &nbsp;<a href="https://youtu.be/AH46OAmKNCw"><u>https://youtu.be/AH46OAmKNCw</u></a></p> <p>Sock monkey by your side or not, we hope to see you again next week for Cabin Boy Minute: Minute 11!</p> <p>Opening music is <a href="https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/4457-take-a-chance"><u>Take a Chance by Kevin MacLeod</u></a> (modified) and licensed under <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/"><u>CC BY 4.0</u></a>.</p> <p>Closing music is <a href="https://freemusicarchive.org/music/The_Freak_Fandango_Orchestra/Tales_Of_A_Dead_Fish/No_means_no"><u>No Means No by The Freak Fandango Orchestra</u></a> (modified) and licensed under <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/"><u>CC BY-SA 3.0</u></a>.</p> <p>To watch and/or own the Cabin Boy movie, follow one of the links &nbsp;below (Cabin Boy Minute will get a cut of the proceeds if you purchase through these links)</p> <p>To Order</p> <p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FRXRRTZ/ref=as_sl_pc_qf_sp_asin_til?tag=cabinboyminut-20&amp;linkCode=w00&amp;linkId=ed3d25d357f54a4f273c7ec7f11cd0c2&amp;creativeASIN=B07FR
