In this second of two back-to-back episodes with Laurel and Hardy expert, Randy Sketvedt, Patrick takes a deep-dive into the fascinating production history of the boys' classic 1929 short, The Hoose-Gow. Among the many things discussed are the origin of the term Hoose-Gow and the Culver City speakeasy that may have inspired the film.
