Boy, get a few beers in Ben, and he starts shredding the “mythology” of beloved children’s literature. Nice, de Bono. Nice.
What you didn’t account for in your zeal to destroy everyone’s childhood memories was that Emily Elizabeth’s LOVE made Clifford grow so big. Says so right there in the theme song. Clifford’s story is a parable on the power of love. But I guess that’s too easy. Maybe you should name the beer “Ben Hates Childhood.”
lol I don’t know, Mike. The books came first and there’s no mention of this whole “growth by love” business. Methinks that’s a bit of a retcon and I for one am not letting the Clifford mythology off that easily 🙂
That said, your beer idea isn’t half bad. Maybe modified to something along the lines of Belligerent Ben Brown Ale

Just kidding. Another fun discussion, guys.

Another fun episode.
Usually Matt posts the episodes up. Not that this observation is of any real importance. I guess Ben was handed off “the shift”.
