Talking Simpsons - Treehouse of Horror VI 0

Has anyone here seen the movie Tron? Well, it doesn't matter, because this Halloween classic parodies Twilight Zone, Nightmare on Elm Street, Godzilla and so much more.

Talking Simpsons - Lisa The Vegetarian 0

BYOBB on this week's podcast as we all marry a carrot and talk about vegetarianism. Lisa learns the power of a baby lamb while Homer imparts that people don't make friends with salad, all as a Beatle watches. So get ready for pigs to fly in this week's exciting podcast!
Talking Simpsons LIVE - The Many Jobs of Homer Simpson 0
Feb 16, 2018
(Recorded live at PianoFight in San Francisco on January 28, 2018.) Talking Simpsons breaks format once again for our second live show as we explore the greatest hits of Homer's side gigs. Though The Simpsons started out as a fairly realistic show about a guy with a working-class job, it wasn't long before Homer found himself in space, part of a Grammy-winning band, and behind the wheel of a monorail as a mono-thingie-guy. Join us for an exciting exploration of Homer's adventures in employment, and thrill as our great audience decides which job reigns supreme!

Special thanks to PianoFight for being such a great and accommodating venue!

Talking Simpsons - Bart Sells His Soul 0
Feb 14, 2018

Spirituality, restaurants, and pogs all in one episode - you know it's a classic Simpsons. After befouling church with rock and/or roll, Bart sell his soul to Milhouse only to deeply regret it soon after. Meanwhile, Moe loses the dank and makes his bar into a family feedback, with expensive fries and crazy crap on the walls. So listen along as we revisit this one. ♪ It's good, good, good, good, good, good, good. ♪ 

Talking Simpsons LIVE With Dana Gould!!! 0

Recorded at SF Sketchfest Nightlife on January 18, 2018, Bob, Henry, and Chris all did our first live show and it was a ton of fun. Not least of which we got to have a live chat with Simpsons writer/standup legend/creator of Stan Against Evil Dana Gould! Hear all about him working on the show (including a joke too dirty for The Simpsons), as well as Dana weighing in on our topic: The Most Pathetic Man in Springfield. All that and more on Talking Simpsons' historic first live show!
