Breaking Mayberry

In this episode we take on the worst Twilight Zone episode, featuring TV's most irritating man. Also Marty read a book and now everyone has to hear about it.

Note: Chuck Norris has died. In "tribute", enjoy this 2019 bonus episode we recorded about a particularly terrible episode of Walker Texas Ranger. For more bonus episodes, subscribe to our Patreon!

Original description: 
It's a special bonus episode are Marty and Dan meet another CBS lawman, Texas Ranger Sergeant Cordelle Walker. We're amazed as Walker takes on the Yak-a-za, in an episode that's not as racist as it could be, but still pretty fucking racist. When an old friend with ties to the Japanese mob comes to Dallas, Texas, Walker has to bust up a strip-mall dojo and fight for a grand total of 90 seconds in a warehouse made of pallets. Is there a submissive Asian wife stereotype? You bet your American butt there is. 

This episode gets weird as we talk about Ringo Starr's hypothetical podcast, decide another thing is a CIA psyop, and debate philosophically about threesomes. We relate to teens with the most relatable teen show in the country, a show loved by teens in a way we definitely understand.

There's music in this episode too and all of it is bad. Season 6, Episode 30 "A Singer In Town"

A podcast that's actually about Dragnet can be found here.

In this episode, Marty has some questions about a potato chip brand and Andy Griffith tells us all why it's bad for women to have jobs.

It's Andy Griffith Season 6, Episode 28 "Goober's Replacement"

Marty and Dan return with good vibes for the new year and a new sidekick for Andy. Opie almost kills a baby and Marty has a scuffle in a government office.

Andy Griffith Season 6, Episodes 24 and 25 "A Baby in the House" and "The County Clerk."

Honestly somehow our most Catholic episode, in spite of the slurs not because of them. We deal with some gross episodes from Season 6, including one we can't write the title of without using a slur, so have fun with that!

POP QUIZ HOTSHOT!

There's an episode of Andy Griffith that's actually good and Dan doesn't want to talk about it, but if you don't do a schtick the podcast will explode. 

What do you do? What do you do?

Well in our case you vamp and try to figure out the exact amount of lung damage needed to do a perfect RFK Jr impression.

It's Andy Griffith Show Season 6, Episodes 21 and 22 "Aunt Bee Learns to Drive" and "Look Pa, I'm Dancing!"

No longer in GLEE-land, the boys can't help but talk about Tombstone and funerals.

A wild west show moves into town and Aunt Bee commits insurance fraud in Andy Griffith Season 6, Episodes 19 and 20 "Lost and Found" and "Wyatt Earp Rides Again".

As we cover our final Glee episode, Season 6's "Child Star", we break down our final therapy feelings about the New Directions, what happens when nostalgia comes for us, and the rich history of tentacle porn.
