My Clothes are on the Street! (it's about "I'm no Fool as a Pedestrian")

Sometimes, there's a subtle arc to 3-episode recording sessions: a warm-up, a high energy, and a gentle slope down at the end. But this ep's subject has got Emily fired up with all the hot takes: ACAB except for the assholes driving really loud cars/motorcycles down the Prospect Expressway! There should be NO free street parking! If you have a big truck, and don't have a frequent essential use for it, you are a loser, and should feel bad! Ky is softly moderating some of these takes with her classic care and consideration, but agrees strongly on the car-size arms race being both annoying, as well as dangerous. Shout-out to the War on Cars podcast for radicalizing Emily, and the assholes driving down Prospect Park Expressway in really loud cars/motorcycles at just the right time for providing realistic sound effects. You know Emily hates to hand it to them. Keep a look out for a future performance art project: storing my private property on the street for free, since that's apparently a thing we can do. Seriously, fuck cars.

I Can Run Faster than You (it's about Sing Along with Bret)

We've got an exciting sequel for you in season six! It's the Kazoo Kid! Except instead of a playing a kazoo, he's shaking kids' hands like he's running for president! It's weird. Emily is really reading into his feelings about this. Ky has her own theories. Aside from making fun of small children, they mostly discuss the state of healthcare in America. In case you wondered, Emily's eye doctor pronounced her retinas healthy, and beautiful.

Our Child is in First Grade (it's the Season 6 Opener!)

Emily and Ky have had their Spring Break, and they are, as the autogenerated chapter titles once said, High, Unaccountable, and Ready to Chat! They're diving right in with musings on the nature of achievement and validation, a long tangent on an embryo-centered court case, and of course, the classic song that started it all: "All I Want to do is Make Love to You" by Heart! This season they've done (most of) their homework, and are each coming to you with a handful of songs to propose as prequels or sequels to the events in the story. New to the pod? You can get a perfect refresher by going back to episode one of season 5! If you want every crumb of context, listening to all five of our previous season openers before this would be a hell of a way to experience the magic of Wine, Weed, Weird! Happy Summer, yall! Welcome to the new season!

We're Always Thinking (it's about Season 5)

The time has come! Emily and Ky take a fond trip down memory lane through this season's episodes. We had guests! We were guests! We found the ants on drugs video! We documented people blowing up a whale! We discovered just how antisocial Jon Arbucle is! It was a great season. Rest now, Cephalopods, or tune into our rich back catalogue. We'll be taking a casual break for a month. We'll be back June 12th, coming in hot with a season opener in Pride Month!

I Don't Know about all that (it's about Suddenly Amish)

Emily and Ky are back to talk more about Suddenly Amish, and thank God, because there is drama for days! From cultures clashing when someone's mother visits, to mysterious late night assignations, there's a lot to speculate on this week. We also learn who decided to continue with the church at the end of the show, and we learn only the tiniest possible bit about where they might be now. Emily and Ky still have questions, but none of them are about the tooth extracting device!
