Get ready for some robot fighting mixed in with some upsetting pet death in this week's exploration of season 15. Homer and Bart take up the bulk of the plot with a timely parody of Battlebots/Robot Wars (and don't worry, we explain the US/UK differences). At the same time, the show kills off Snowball II in such an offhand way that it's still annoying 20 years later. Will you be as upset as Armin Tamzarian? Listen now and find out!

Talking Simpsons - The Last Temptation of Homer With Gary Butterfield
This week we're joined by Gary Butterfield from the Duckfeed.tv podcasts for a tale of Homer struggling with desire. After Mindy Simmons joins coworkers like Stuart The Duck and Large-Hand Man, Homer finds himself attracted to her in a story that takes a lot of finesse from the writers. As we look back on that potential infidelity, we also note our memories of being nerds in elementary school just like Bart, so grab some prune juice and hard-boiled eggs for another classic retrospective podcast!

Talk To The Audience?!? - January 2025
The start of 2025 was short on happy headlines, but we have a few nice memories to share after January. First, there's news on the Simpsons' schedule changing, plus we preview some podcast plans, and then we reflect on a month full of RPGs, Squid Games, & David Lynch films. Lastly, we wrap up the usual way by spotlighting some of our favorite Patreon comments, including some talk of DVD bonus features and cat ownership. So dance with your favorite ice cream cone as you listen to our monthly community podcast!

For an episode about families vs the child-free, we're joined by our podcasting parental pal, Chris Kohler from Digital Eclipse. As Marge battles Lindsay Naegle over kids in public spaces, we judge how well that has aged (in addition to references to Steve Irwin, Raffi, and Rudy Giuliani). In an episode full of funny dialogue, what does this 2004 political commentary have to tell us two decades later? Grab a kid's menu puzzle and listen now!

Talking Simpsons - Boy-Scoutz 'n the Hood With Patrick Cotnoir
Recover from your own Squishee hangover with our guest Patrick Cotnoir (George Lucas Talk Show, Hey, That's Me: A Commentary Podcast).
