Back in July of 2024, we introduced the game of Marx Brothers Council Roulette, in which we scroll randomly through the group and respond to whatever we land on. We thought this would be the perfect time to revive that idea, because we couldn't think of a new one.

Let's celebrate Harpo's birthday with a few views of The Cocoanuts on Broadway!

(Whatever you do, don't go to IBDB and look up Chico's character's name. Just don't.)

The mirror sequence in the Marx Brothers’ Duck Soup (1933). I still remember how much I cried with laughter the first time I saw it.
