Bonus Episode 172b

Cody Never Wins
The Complete Radar Men from the Moon
Hosted by Adam Clarke, Beth Martin, Charlotte Wells, and Chris Piuma
MST3K riffed nine chapters of the serial Radar Men from the Moon over the course of season 1. And now that we’ve finally covered all of those episodes, we figured we should probably bring all those plot summaries and most of the relevant segments together in one convenient bonus episode. So enjoy hearing Chris and Charlotte — and old-timers Adam and Beth — talk about the so-called adventures of Commando Cody. Nipple nipple, tweak tweak, fly fly fly!
(Also, this gives Chris a little more time to get over a wrist RSI to edit the Gunslinger episode. Thank you for your patience.)
