Ep. 36 - Behold the Monkey
The fruits of the Second Annual Year-End Patreon Listener Challenge has us staring directly into the cold dead eyes of the beast!

And more importantly, Jesus, why you look like a shark?\n\nSee the images:\nhttp://www.thelonelypalette.com/episodes/2019/1/25/episode-36-behold-the-monkey-the-ecce-homo-restoration\n\nMusic used:\nDjango Reinhardt, \u201cDjango\u2019s Tiger\u201d\nThe Andrews Sisters, "Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen"\nThe Blue Dot Sessions, \u201cSylvestor\u201d, \u201cMute Steps\u201d, \u201cMr. Graves\u201d, \u201cLobo Lobo\u201d, \u201cLumber Down\u201d, \u201cCloudy Cider\u201d \nTracie Potochnik, \u201cCecilia and the Saints\u201d\n\nEpisode sponsor:\nhttps://www.thegreatcoursesplus.com/lonely\n\nSupport the show!
