We return to the gridiron for another sports-focused Talking Simpsons, which means the return of our football fan friend/USG Editor-In-Chief Kat Bailey to the podcast! Bart puts down the pop-tarts and grabs the pigskin while Homer gets to cutting players (the easiest part of being a coach). Can Bart deal with his own reeky playing to become the quarterback Homer dreams of? Learn all about that and the dangers of vapor lock as this week's podcast goes the whole nine yards!

The Mike Scully era truly begins with this very political episode of The Simpsons. We're joined by Will Sloan, cohost of the podcasts Michael And Us and The Important Cinema Club, to discuss gun control, soccer, the King of England, and how this episode has aged. Plus some legitimately hilarious jokes as the venerable show enters another era, and so does our podcast. For once in your life be fair and give a listen!

It's Halloween time again on Talking Simpsons, and we've got returning guest Dan Ryckert (from Giant Bomb and Panning the Stream podcast)! He joins us to chat about Omega Man, The Fly, the Crucible and all the classic media that inspired 1997's Treehouse of Horror! Listen now to learn all about Edgar Winter AND French neutron bombs!

Once again we're joined by Giant Bomb's own Alex Navarro, and he's here to lend a musician's insight into this story of childhood. This tale of Lisa's saxophone and Bart starting school is certainly touching, even if some jokes are better than others, but it's all a fun trip back to childhood in 1990 for all of us in this week's podcast. So stop watching WB and listen now!
