Yes, we've finally done it! After writers Al Jean and Mike Reiss, after ALF himself Paul Fusco we've actually interviewed a cast member! And it's genuinely one of our favourites - the lovely Josh Blake who, as Jake, became a standout in season 3. youtu.be/VGgX95TPapw?...

Python was awarded a funding grant, funding grant asked Python foundation to remove all diversity and inclusion initiatives they have. Python foundation said no and rejected the grant. If you use Python, send a few dollars to the charity to keep it going. I’m pushing a dono on behalf of ScamGuard.
