Episode 77: The A Team

In 2015, two flatmates got drunk and started a podcast. Now they live apart, recording remotely in the wake of a global pandemic. Today, still producing new episodes, they survive as podcasters of geekdom.

If you want a podcast, if no one else can help, and if you can find our website, maybe you can listen… to Two Geeks, Two Beers.

For this episode, Morgan teaches noob Tom all about ’80s action TV series The A Team, from ‘explaining Mr T’, why George Peppard admitted he’s ‘not a very nice man’, and why you should always treat your mother right.

The A-Team ran on NBC from 1983 to 1987, and followed former members of a fictitious United States Army Special Forces unit.

The members were court-martialed “for a crime they didn’t commit”, escaped from military prison and, while still on the run, worked as soldiers of fortune.

The series was created by Stephen J Cannell and Frank Lupo. A film based on the series was released in 2010.
