A Special Presentation 349: Peanuts Film Strips [2 of 2]
Sunday, 14 June, 2026
This week, we look at some REAL obscure stuff: two of the 36 circa 1979 film strips commissioned by the US Department of Education to teach children about the importance of having a job, "People Have Different Skills, Charlie Brown" and "Schoolwork is Important, Charlie Brown," starring the Peanuts gang and their new latina friend Delores. We also look at "It's Dental Flossophy, Charlie Brown," about flossing. We ramble a lot in this one, so enjoy talk about about film strips in general, Map Man and Compass Rose, Dr. Zook's dysphoria hoodie, why Camp Swampy never gets deployed, and the only good white woman Harriet Glickman.
