Over the Garden Wall: Part 1

Perspective Drift · Oct 22, 2026 · 1h 47m

In our first episode, we start our discussion of Over the Garden Wall. It's a very influential show for Chris, but Chuck has never seen it before and is coming to it with fresh eyes.

We discuss the first half of the show, which inevitably leads to the nature of existential dread, why capitalism is designed to fail, and, of course, how Art Garfunkel is unfairly maligned.

Episodes Discussed:

The Old Grist Mill

Hard Times at the Huskin' Bee

Schooltown Follies

Songs of the Dark Lantern

Mad Love

We will be covering the second half in part 2 coming November 5th, 2026.

Notes:
