S4:E12 - Jess and Jared recap and discuss “Hot Potato Soup."

This episode marks the return of Patton Oswalt's Koenig brothers as Radcliffe and Aida search for the Darkhold. Mack emphasizes his hatred of robots, and Robo-May makes moves to further her relationship with Coulson. Robo-Radcliffe gets under Fitz's skin when he brings up his daddy issues (who knew?), and tips off the team to Robo-May's existence just in time to stop her from absconding with the Darkhold and tearfully killing Coulson! We get a lot of great stuff with the Koenig brothers, and get to meet the original S.H.I.E.L.D. Koenig that brought the rest of them in, their sister, L.T., who puts all her siblings to shame, and their brother, Thurston, who shames their family as an anti-S.H.‪‪I.E.L.D. conspiracy-spouting standup comedian.

The real Radcliffe and the Watchdogs flee with the Darkhold and Robo-Radcliffe and first Aida are destroyed. It ends with Radcliffe getting the straight dope on the Watchdogs from the Russian as reveals his hate-on for Coulson! Jared recalls the robot who started his love of artificial beings with Johnny 5 and then rants about the rampant racism of Short Circuit and has a revelation about his personal connection to fictional automatons. We talk a bit about Parasite and Snowpiercer, hypothesize the best way to fight Patton Oswalt, and which one of us coins the nickname "Quaisy Daisy?" You'll have to listen to find out!
