#14; Back to the Future Arc, Part 3
12/10/2010 Duration: 02h05minThis episode takes John D. and Gen back to a 1885 Hill Valley in Back to the Future III. We discuss Marty's incredible strength in his capacity to carry Doc on his back, the weird DNA heritage of the McFly lineage and the need for a clock tower in a town with only about four houses. We establish that Marty has his priorities straight by going directly to the saloon and getting a "smoking wisky’’ when he gets to town. We also try to understand why 1985 Doc doesn’t remember what his 1955 version found out about his future, which actually happened in the past... and we lose ourselves in the fourth dimension. This brings an end to our Back to the Future arc. Hopefully no remakes are in the works.You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''. Please subscribe and give us a positive review!
