• Bonus 17: Fraternally Yours - Men O' War Discussion

  These are the edited highlights of the second online meeting of the podcast's 'Fraternally Yours' discussion group. The group's main objective was to watch and discuss the boys' classic short, Men O'War, but during the session, we digressed and covered a lot of other ground as well - all Laurel & Hardy related, of course! There were a number of members present, from several countries, including the USA, the UK and Canada and as an added delight, we were also joined by Laurel and Hardy experts and friends of the Podcast, Randy Skretvedt and Glenn Mitchell.
