Episode 5: "Diamonds Are A Man's Best Friend" - a podcast by Jeff & Brandon

"I didn't know which way to turn, which was very unusual for me". This episode we're treated to the floor's mad dash to find a missing diamond for a rich customer. Jeff and Brandon learn (thanks to a listener's email) about a failed American version of Are You Being Served? *shocking!* Sometimes a TV show can't be replicated (many have tried). What's a MacGuffin? Jeff bestows his brains on the show. We learn why "ginger" refers to a gay guy, thanks to Cockney rhyming slang. Mr. Humphries is happy for his transgender friend as Jeff and Brandon discuss 1970's (and today's) transphobia, historical trans leaders (like Christine Jorgensen and Marci Bowers). Why is a season only 5 episodes? We're stumped. And how much does Miss Brahms make per week while working at Grace Brothers? And are diamonds as popular as they seem to have been in 1974? Let us know what you think!
