Spring has sprung, and with it, our latest episode bursts into bloom, weaving the often-overlooked comic genius of Tom Lehrer into a whimsical tapestry that celebrates the season's playful spirit. Lehrer's satirical melodies have long tickled the funny bone, and it's a mystery why his Mark Twain Prize-worthy humor isn't more widely recognized. Meanwhile, Ted and I set out on an adventure that takes us to the Philadelphia Zoo, where we're greeted by the towering presence of Thomas Dambo's recycled wood troll statues — silent sentinels of sustainability that stir the imagination. Our journey doesn't stop there; we traverse the wild above, thanks to the zoo's overhead mesh bridges, giving us a jaguar's-eye view that's as exhilarating as it is humbling. And as if our day couldn't get any more inspired, we step into the vibrant world of Nathan Sawaya's Art of the Brick exhibit at the Franklin Institute, where the humble Lego brick ascends to new heights of creativity.
