Welcome to the Retroist Planet of the Apes Podcast. On this week’s show, we talk about the greatest film about a world run by apes, 1968’s “Planet of the Apes”. I talk about how easily distracted I am by anything Planet of the Apes related when they are on the television. Then I talk about the book, the people in front of and behind the camera, the music, plot and much much more.
I am joined again by Vic Sage who does another great “Why Should I know this Person”. This week, Vic tells you why you should know the very talented, Roddy McDowall. Doug McCoy is back with a brand new “Also Ran”. And Rob “Flack” O’Hara talks about the Planet of the Apes Atari 2600 prototype game in his segment “Talking Tech”.
