Ape Lad: Pappy and the Cryptids.

Posted on February 6, 2008 12:13 AM |


Bigfoot, Chupacabra, a chainsmoking bear -- they all show up in this interview with Adam "Ape Lad" Koford's grandpappy Aloysius Koford.

"Pappy" illustrates cryptozoological wonders from his hobo past with a sometimes-malfunctioning robotic hand. Don't miss the second segment in today's episode, in which "Pappy" and Adam head out into the wilderness to spot cryptid tracks in the dirt. What do Sasquatch footprints taste like? You don't wanna know.

    Aloysius P. Koford, the great-grandpappy of cartoonist Adam "Ape Lad" Koford, recounts his history as a Mountain Man -- kind of like being a hobo, as he explains, only more "grub," less clothing.

    Today on Boing Boing tv, we revisit Adam "Ape Lad" Koford's great-grandpappy Aloysius P. Koford for a never-before-exposed expose of his illustrious Hollywood career -- complete with walrii, scantily clad Mary Pickford lookalikes, and movie studio copyright disputes of yesteryear that may just rival, in their fury, the pugnacious picket lines of today. Plus: the real history of the Wilhelm Scream.
