Matt Burnett is co-creator of Cartoon Network's fantastic Craig of the Creek, as well as one of the first writers for Steven Universe, and he joins Bob and Henry for Lisa's first crush. Much to Milhouse's dismay, Lisa has a thing for Nelson Muntz, and it leads to painful consequences for everyone. All while Homer annoys the town with auto-dialing happiness! Unpack the gauze from your ears and listen to this week's podcast!

Let's Be Heroes, and they're joining us LIVE in-person to discuss one of the most momentous Simpsons episodes of all time! We all borrow a feeling as Milhouse's parents get divorced, and we struggle with dignity, sweet Fannie Addams, dry crackers, and smashing chairs over your father's back! (Plus Ian and Toby will share with us some behind-the-scenes secrets of OK K.O., Steven Universe, Regular Show, and MORE!) So hop in your racecar bed and get ready for a patio party!

This week we're joined by writer/illustrator/Twitter badass Kate Leth, a perfect guest as we delve deep into the most sex-positive episode of The Simpsons ever.

Our sports expert buddy Kat Bailey joins us for an episode steeped in boxing history! Homer's got a crazy idea that's somewhere in the middle where he'll be beaten up by hobos for money and then he ends up fighting for the World Heavyweight Championship! We explain all the history behind fan man, surgical 2X4s, Don King, and tons more in this week's glorious return to the shores of fistiana!
