Well, we’re talking about a popular cartoon in the 80s, so we were bound to encounter an anti-drug episode.
Ileena, an old friend of Teela’s, drops by, and after a close call on her robot horse in the geyser fields (yes, it’s as crazy as it sounds), she starts looking for a dose of bravery. An escaped convict wizard is only too happy to oblige (in disguise as an old woman). Of course, the “drug” we see in this episode is really a magic potion with withdrawal effects, but He-Man pretty clearly spells out the message during his moral.
Along the way, He-Man has plenty of other unrelated paternal advice. And we think Man-at-Arms is saying “taters” a lot. Plus, we discuss the flatulence-muting properties of a proper sorcerer’s robe.
Also, we check in with a friend of mine who has never before seen an episode of He-Man or She-Ra to get his take on the show. It’s a fascinating and hilarious talk.
