Episode 51: Bart the Lover (but who in their right mind plays with yo-yos nowadays?)

Bolivian musician and writer Petrus Silón sits down with me to discuss one of his favorite episodes... And, really, this shows up on a lot of fan favorite lists. Not just because it's a good source of memes, but because it's a very well-written (and acted) story with a lot of real heart. And, of course, Homer and the swear jar...another one in a long line of classic Simpsons sequences. Petrus and I talk about that, and a couple of other fun things in this breezy chat. Dig in.

Episode 50: Homer Alone (which is so thin, it looks like Robert John Burke wearing terrible make-up!)

Jason Pollock and I sit down to talk about this missed opportunity of an episode, which should be about Marge getting some much needed away time from her burden of a family, but is instead about Homer farting around the house and stuff while she's away. And so, since the episode itself barely generates enough meat for scintillating conversation, we find ourselves drifting...talking about morning drive time DJs, and Indiana Jones movies, and popular genre TV shows that had surprisingly long runs... and so on. It is, of course, a tangent-filled and very engaging little convo. Dig in.

Episode 49: Lisa the Greek (don't worry...she's not a clueless racist and she won't get fired by CBS)

Chris Prentice and I talk...FOOTBALL!!! Well kind of...and I am referring to American Football, as opposed to what the rest of the world calls "Football," though we do name-drop that one too. We kind of talk about sports in general, and the audience interaction with competitive sports. In a word: gambling. And so on. Because this is the episode where Homer discovers Lisa can always pick the winners. And they bond. Until Homer reveals he's a selfish ass. In any case, sit back for a talk that delves into these topics and some historical background about the Sports commentator who inspired the episode's title. It's all in fun. Dig in.

Episode 48: Radio Bart (and pictures of starving children sell records!)

The Pensky File's Clay McCormack joins me this week to discuss a classic episode that pokes fun at media circuses and charity singles - like "We Are the World" and what not. Sting guest stars as himself and gets to headline a catchy tune. We talk about that, and we also talk about bad birthday experiences or crummy gifts from well-meaning adults. We even discuss Live Aid, Queen and the motion picture sensation Bohemian Rhapsody. It's a really fun, breezy talk. Dig in.

Episode 47: I Married Marge (...but who shot J.R.?)

The second in the series of Simpsons flashbacks takes us back to the summer of 1980, as we see the circumstances that led to Bart's conception and the early days of Homer and Marge's marriage. This is exactly the kind of episode Josh Fein and I tend to talk about and so here he is again, and we explore the series' approach to character development, attention to period detail, balance of sentiment and humor, and so on... We also talk at length about the reality of being a young parent... And then we go off on tangents involving popular names for children, and the dangers of spoilers. It's a chock-full episode, and so is our talk. Dig in.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
