This week, we're taking a bit of a diversion to talk about the two-season also-ran created by former Simpsons showrunners, Al Jean and Mike Reiss. How did a live-action Krusty the Clown spin-off turn into a prime-time cartoon that mashed Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert together into one adorably pathetic, pug-ugly movie reviewer? Listen in as we explore the short-lived show that added "Hachi Machi!" to our vocabularies!

In an episode that's alternately titled "(or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Legalized Gambling)," we welcome back Nick Wiger from the podcasts Doughboys and Get Played! Armed with TWO different original scripts for the ep, we dig into all the details for this ode to Gamblor. How does Marge get addicted to gambling? Did this predict magician injuries? Are we all covered in disgusting germs? Was Robert Goulet's manager really named Vera? We've got all the answers in a podcast that's at least as funny as an injured Irishman!

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!

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!

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!
