Worst Episode Ever (A Simpsons Podcast)

Special guest Harry Nelson of the Harry Says Yes podcast joins Jack & Dan to discuss Season 22's The Scorpion's Tale, an episode that features Werner Herzog as a pharmaceutical giant/Willy Wonka character and eyeballs popping out of everyone's heads. Topics include why Simpsons writers need to start showing their work, the means needing to justify the ends when it comes to jokes and storytelling and a classic all over Web of Spider-Man plot. Why is Dan buying so much syrup? Is Jack the Robot Devil? Will there be a Choose Your Own Podcast adventure played out over WEE, Harry Says Yes and Desert Masturbation 101? All that, plus Harry won't shut up, Dan's product placement conspiracy theory expands and Jack begins to talk about some pancakes he ate before thinking better of it.

NEXT WEEK: Season 21's The Squirt and the Whale

Deleted scenes & outtakes from Episode 41: Purgatorio, including discussions about Judge Constance Harm and the Season 1 classic There's No Disgrace Like Home. Also, Jack hates his fat legs and gradual transformation into Vincent D'Onofrio while Dan thinks Delroy Lindo made up his name.

This week Dan, Jack, and our intern (a talking mouse) watch Season 13's "Brawl in the Family," an episode reminiscent of both the heavenly classic and hellish post-classic eras. The Simpsons are broken apart, by Monopoly, by cougars, and by Vegas cocktail waitresses, all in one episode! Can Al Jean quantum leap and right what once went wrong with Homer and Flanders's Vegas wives? Was "Edna Krabappoly" a harbinger of The Simpsons collapsing in on itself? And how do you spend your time in an all boys high school? (Simpsons quizes!) All that, plus, our earliest memories, Groophic pushes his creationist agenda, and visions of a a world where Season 40 is a possibility. 

NEXT WEEK: Season 22's The Scorpion's Tale

Deleted scenes & outtakes from Episode 40: I've Seen Better Penises (A Simpsons Podcast) including all of the penises that didn't get cut (pun intended) as well as discussions about scenes from Midnight Towboy and its odd musical cues.

Crack open a lobsterpolitan and settle in for Season 19's Midnight Towboy, not to be confused with Midnight Cowboy, which doesn't rhyme. Homer has been a plow truck driver, a regular truck driver, but a tow truck driver?! Where do they get their ideas?! Meanwhile, Jack & Dan celebrate their Fortyversary by having a mid-life crisis despite their lives being good enough while discussing extra beats, lingering jokes, and Maggie's IQ. How did Dan crash the stock market with his big soda? Is Groovic the Twophic that broke the Groophic's back? Will "Snap Into a Toe" take America's t-shirts by storm? All that plus Jack's Competitive Mighty Max podcast, WEE retcons itself... and Jeremy Piven. (Ohhh yeaaaah)

NEXT WEEK: Season 13's Brawl in the Family

Deleted scenes & outtakes from Episode 39: The Royal You, including several deleted conversations that didn't make the final cut. Jack & Dan talk about the Minecraft couch gag, the weird animation and jokes in the bedroom scene, name issues with Luca$ and Snake and the weird Coyote/Roadrunner gag, among many others. Also, Jack does his best Rossini impression while Dan reveals a story about an ex-girlfriend with an abrupt ending when-

The Simpsons do competitive eating!.... Kind of? We're broadcasting live from and in the fourth person from WEE's French-Canadian death camp studio to talk about Season 25's "Luca$," which doesn't have all that much to do with the character named Luca$, nor the Robert Wuhl series Arli$$. But it does have Zach Galifianakis! Will we be blindsided by incohesion and puns within puns? Do the writers throw in random jokes for shits & giggles, or just shits? Why will Jack start his own PlayStadium corporation? All that, plus, Jack's Groophic impression, an alternate universe with Dack and Jan, and spoiler alerts for Interstellar: Murph.

NEXT WEEK: Season 19's Midnight Towboy

​Deleted scenes & outtakes from Episode 38: Extra Beat Alarm including discussions about Sober Barney, Jim-Jam Bonks, and the Oktoberfest scene. Also, Jack & Dan quote half of 1989's Batman, because as our plastic surgeon always says "If you gotta go... go with a smile."

In this WEE episode with too many beats, Dan & Jack cover a Simpsons episode with too many beats—season 15’s Co-Dependent’s Day. This much-reviled storyline features Homer framing Marge for his DUI and an entire act devoted to Cosmic Wars. WEE were this close to naming this week’s episode “A Crappy Nail in a Shitty Piece of Wood,” so you know it’s going to be a good one. Is this Homer’s lowest point ever? Do Jack & Dan record every episode upside-down? Who starred in the short-lived revival Laugh Command ’89? All this plus Dan smokes too much hashtag, Jack sings as much of Rehab as he can legally afford, Business Disney Corner and no Leonardo DiCaprio whatsoever… for now. NEXT WEEK: Season 25's Luca$
