145: THEY'VE GOT THE MUSIC IN THEM!
And you thought summer was over... Well, Cloverhill Ranch is still open! For now! But, oh no! This is the last summer and then the camp closes for good! Charlie Brown and company in the new special on Apple TV+ "Snoopy Presents: A Summer Musical" are so devastated, they have to sing about it. And they do. A lot. We break it all down in episode 145. We also look at This Month in Peanuts History, a Random Strip of the Month courtesy of author Andrew Farago, and say goodbye to one of our favorite podcast segments as we check out our final "Peanuts by Schulz" episode.

144: ANDREW FARAG0 CHANNELS HIS INNER BEAGLE
Everybody's favorite beagle is front and center in 144. And I don't mean my dog Beans. It's Snoopy! (You knew that.) Author Andrew Farago returns to the podcast to tell us about channeling his inner beagle in his new book "Snoopy: The Story of My Life - The Myth, The Legend, The Beagle!" For just any podcast, that would be more than enough. But not us! We've also got a Random Strip of the Month, a discussion of the "Peanuts by Schulz" episode "The Winter Games", news from in and around the Peanuts universe, and, of course, your feedback. I think that'll do it. Thanks to Kevin McLeod at Incompetech.com for creative commons use of his songs "Hidden Agenda", "Mining by Moonlight" and "Bass Walker".

143: BETTER THAN A MEATBALL SUB
In IT'S A PODCAST, CHARLIE BROWN 143, the sun is setting on Camp Springlake. Summer has ended in "Camp Snoopy", S1, ep 13, and the campers are heading home (for now). We're here to say goodbye. We've also got a "Peanuts by Schulz" episode titled "Sally", a Random Strip of the Month, This Month in Peanuts History, and your feedback. Plus all sorts of news from in and around the Peanuts universe. Good stuff. You should listen.

142: SCHROEDER CHARACTER STUDY
Much like Schroeder pulls great art from a little toy piano, 142 pulls a dandy episode from my meager talent. We've got This Month in Peanuts History, a look at an episode of "Peanuts by Schulz" called "Even the Score", and we take a look at the greatest pianist since Rachmaninov as Schroeder gets his own Character Study. What's he like? Why is he like that? What's his role in the strip? Why piano and not the pan flute? So many questions. And we address them all in 142!

Charlie Brown and the gang ruled the comics pages for fifty years. As animated characters, they have appeared in five feature films, eight episodes of "This is America, Charlie Brown" , ten motion comics on iTunes, eighteen episodes of "The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Show", and some forty-five TV specials. On this podcast, we're going to watch them all. Then we'll talk about what we liked, what we didn't. Remember, of all the Charlie Browns in world, you're the Charlie Browniest.
