Thinking about the Rip Van Winkle Google Trends post, I was surprised that a lot of people hadn’t heard of Rip Van Winkle, but the same can be said of my not having heard of Tim and Eric. I think it’s a really interesting reflection of who the Dropout cast is, and who they maybe think their audience is, looking at what they reference, and it is interesting to see the discrepancy in these sort of things.
There’s definitely been some celebrities or public figures I was not familiar with that have been referenced, like I’d never heard of Bjork before the Make Some Noise episode. At the same time, I watched the Anna Garcia episode with someone who wasn’t aware enough of Animal Crossing to know what a good job Anna did with that prompt!
What are the references that mystified you?
A bunch of the musicals that Anna referenced in her presentation. I know like 4 post-1980 musicals that aren't Starkid.
