The Black Hole Has An Overture And Ernest Borgnine!

Описание: On the podcast we frequently have little diversions. During this weeks’ episode of Cowboy Bebop, Sam brings up that he’s recently been watching The Black Hole, Disney’s 1975 sci-fi epic that is much more hard-sci-fi than the firm usually goes.

Did I extract this and make it a highlight just so I had an excuse to use a clip from Ernest Borgnine’s hilarious advert where he encourages young people to get into stamp collecting by buying stamps from the United States Post Office? Maybe!

It is one of my favorite weird clips, if only for the cut from Ernest Borgnine on set to his overly-frank statement of “I collect stamps”
