S19E10 - E Pluribus Wiggum

It was (or may soon be?) Super Tuesday so WEE are getting political and watching Season 19's E Pluribus Wiggum, a gimmick that sort of resembles an episode with a plot that barely resembles a story. Basically, a number of antics lead to Ralph Wiggum running for President. Did The Purge win on Super Tuesday? Why shouldn't we name He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named? And has Leonardo DiCaprio become an undead creature of the night? All that plus peak guacamole, Butterfinger promises, and Hangin' Brain with Mr. Cooper.

Jack and Dan get on with the plot and discuss Season 22's "Angry Dad: The Movie," a celebrity-packed episode where Bart is nominated for an Oscar for some reason and Homer and Marge join a gang for one scene. Is this the most Kevin Bacon of episodes? What does it say on our tombstones? And where's our poddy? All that plus weird editing choices, appamantium, El Bankso and future diarrhea.

S13E22 - Papa's Got a Brand New Badge

Dan and Jack celebrate their Seventy Epiventery with a returning special guest, Lani Harms! They discuss Season 13's Papa's Got a Brand New Badge, an episode where Homer becomes a vigilante after Lisa's stuff is stolen. Wait, not a vigilante, he starts a private security company, so it's different from that other episode. Homer also faces off with the mafia on the front lawn after reneging on Marge's pretzel debt...? Or was it ferrets or something? Who are these jokes for? Was this episode scripted by O. Henry? Is a sideways bull breaking into K-Mart to steal some dishwashers? All that plus rancid icing, Mar & Momie, and Gotham Season Four: No Batman Yet. PS, Give us your money.

S10E12 - Sunday Cruddy Sunday

The Super Bowl is this week and if there's anything all Simpsons fans love, it's sports. That's why Dan & Jack are watching Season 10's Sunday, Cruddy Sunday, a star-studded episode where Fred Willard takes the men of Springfield to the big game and Vincent Price mails Marge & Lisa some egg feet. Who originally criticized post-classic Simpsons at a bus stop? Who writes all of our dialogue? And what's the real plot to Kate & Leopold? All that, plus the jerkassdom scale, non-sarcastic Charles Bronson and our new Roseanne Podcast.

S16E09 - Pranksta Rap

Live from Studio D, Jack & Dan discuss Season 16's Pranksta Rap, a cringeworthy episode that sees Bart suddenly love rap before turning into a completely different episode about Chief Wiggum. How sad is too sad for Kirk Van Houten? What does Sting do when he says "cut all this?" And what's the catchphrase for the CEO of Jack's Movies? All that, plus Cootie 2001, 8-Track Things, and lazy American writing.

S24E21 - The Saga of Carl

Jack & Dan record a not-quite-live-to-tape episode while discussing Season 24's The Saga of Carl, an episode that delves into the nature of male bonding and Carl's scandalous Icelandic heritage.

S18E14 - Yokel Chords

Returning guest Harry Nelson connects the dots for Jack and Dan as they discuss Season 18's "Yokel Chords," a Sound of Music parody about Cletus's kids that also has Bart going to therapy with Meg Ryan.

S14E19 - Old Yeller-Belly

It's the 2nd annual drunken New Year's episode at WEE Studios where Jack, Dan and special guest Geoff Wolyniec watch Season 14's Old Yeller Belly, a post-classic episode cobbled together from storylines of several classic ones. Has any show gotten more mileage from 60s Batman than The Simpsons? What's the laziest possible name? Is Jack's rug evolving? All that plus no biscuits, Hitler mailmen, iPad Nan-Moes, Dan throws out the baby, The Gwynne & Hepburn Podcast, and a game of Which Episode Is Real? And last but certainly not least, WEE Studios makes a special announcement about 2016 (and kills off the character you hated the most...). Happy New Year!
