The Joe Bob Report

I am old enough to have seen actual movies in an actual drive-in.

I'm not sure that real movies were ever shown there, but, you know, they showed drive-in movies -- slashers, Nazis, psychos, zombies, surfers, Nazi zombie surfer slashers -- you know, like that.

Except in the same sense that there are still working mule-skinners somewhere or other (here, for example), there are no more drive-ins. But, of course, there are still drive-in movies.

Joe Bob Briggs wrote an article for The Washingtonian in April, 1988, reviewing the Sunday-morning political TV gasbags, entitled "Brunch with the Living Dead."

But Joe Bob's metier was always the B movie, and he continues to ply his trade through The Joe Bob Report. Guaranteed wholesome redneck goodness.

Hat tip to our correspondent "Short-timer." Temporarily. Of course.
