This week, Mark and Allen serve up the snacks and the answers you've been looking for in yet another Mailbag Day Special Episode. The mail has been really piling up at LFP Worldwide Headquarters, so they have tried extra hard to unearth some gems.  Assisted by unpaid intern Constantine, they peruse through the questions that are keeping you up at night. Or at least those you are curious about. Relationships? Improvisation? Tropes? D-Bag ranking?  It's got all this and more. Be sure to turn your podcast dials accordingly and listen!

This week, Mark and Allen break down the Episode that introduces Councilman Bill Dexhart, Channel Four Eyewitness Newsperson Perd Hapley, anger peeing, sham marriages, and the legendary Duke Silver!  Leslie is nervous about her first date with Officer Dave Sanderson (like, REALLY nervous), so best friend Ann tries to help her prepare by immersing her "in a tank of bad date"... but Leslie gets a bit TOO confident (and drunk), and... well, we don't want to spoil it.  Also, the gang at City Hall plays a game to see who can dig up the juiciest dirt on the others - Ron has two ex-wives (and a mother) named Tammy, Tom has Taliban robes, Jerry finds out he is adopted ... and these aren't even the dirtiest secrets!  So put your moral high ground aside and join in - Jerry Springer has nothing on this episode!  Hats off to our fantastic sponsors, Travel Agency "Dank and Damp" (specializing in caves) and Cozy's Bar in Eagleton.

This week Mark and Allen give the rundown on the Miss Pawnee Beauty Pageant and watch along as April competes against the likes of Trishes and Susans for the....Gift Certificates!?! Ann finally takes out the trash...well, she does that all the time...but, this time she discovers Andy living (and working) in the Pit! Officer Dave is back feeling confident and looking to take Leslie out for a cup of Coffee and hits the wall - Leslie's wall that is - when he shows his ignorance. Will April win the Beauty Pageant and defer the cost of a fence? Will Dave bone up on Powerful Women in Politics in time to regain Leslie's respect? Will Ann take Andy back in? JOIN US as we find out together this week as we cover the series' ninth episode! Thanks to our wonderful sponsors: The Pawnee Museum of History (and Medical Oddities) and JJ's Diner!

This week, Mark and Allen break down the episode that introduces Officer Dave Sanderson from the Pawnee Police Department! (Well, his Mother calls him David.) Someone has planted marijuana in Leslie's community garden (in the pit), so she and Tom are going to have a stakeout to catch the "kingpin". Meanwhile, Ann is going out on a date with Mark, and Ron has an excruciatingly painful hernia. Now, you'd *think* these storylines wouldn't cross... and for Ron's hernia, you'd be right... but the other two do! Why does Ann make such good coffee? Is it possible to throw an entire value meal into your mouth? Do some candy necklaces come without strings? How do you best care for a batch of Souljaboy Tellems? Can whipped cream be used for therapy? Does Ron have syphilis? These and many other questions will be answered! So come on, join us. No seriously - join us. JOIN US. NOW. Step out of the van. (And no, not your momma's van.) Thanks to our wonderful sponsors: the Offerman Woodshop and the Pawnee Police Department.

This week, Mark and Allen, assisted by the new surprise Intern, dive deep into the mountains of viewer email, snail mail, texts, DMs, voicemail transcriptions and WWII-era "Pigeon Posts" (for LFP eyes only!) to read some of YOUR questions! And, if that weren't enough (which it clearly is), they go one better and discuss their TOP Leslie Knope moments as part of a Season One recap! So, sharpen your Pencils and get out your official City of Pawnee branded notepad (so that you can play along at home) and join us for this special episode!

Join us for a special Thanksgiving message from the man - Ron Freakin' Swanson himself! Recorded live in our studio during a special (court ordered community service) visit, this is a Live from Pawnee exclusive!

--Mark and Allen

In the season opener, Leslie has a penguin wedding as a cute zoo promotion, only later realizing both penguins are dudes. With everyone thinking Leslie is making a statement, political waves crash as she deals with Marcia Langman from the Society for Family Stability Foundation, Pawnee Today's Joan Callemezzo, and gay bar "The Bulge". Also, Andy returns! Will Ann get back together with him? Has Mark truly hit rock bottom? Can you climb mountains in Kansas? Is anything more troubling than rat parades? Why don't Pawnee garbagemen wear LiveStrong bracelets? Why is Ron familiar with "The Bulge"? What of this secret language Leslie and Ann are talking about? You've got questions, and we've got answers! Well, opinions, anyway. So get yourself all dolled up and join us - you might just turn someone before the night is over. But only if you have "ma-tured". (P-P-P-Poker Face....) Our sponsor streak continues with Kerston's Rubber Nipples and The Bulge.

This week, Mark and Allen examine the EXTENDED PRODUCER'S CUT of the season finale to see which story lines are wrapped up, and which are left hanging. This episode is chock-full of talking points - so strap in and listen closely! This week the gang celebrates Andy getting his casts removed as his band puts on a concert, but lies are everywhere as Ann learns a nasty secret, Leslie deals with a political tete-a-tete, and Mark Brendanawicz hits on anything that moves. Meet Tom's hot surgeon wife, Ron's ex-wife's more attractive sister, and the other band members! Find out how to play "Dead or Asleep"! Is Scarecrow Boat better than the Everly Brothers? Are Leslie's boobs dead? Where is Ann's missing iPod? All this and more!  Now... Sit still and open your mouth... You need to try some of this chicken.  Much gratitude and respect to our fine sponsors, Paladino's Bar and Grill and the Pawnee Milk Association. How many Little Sebastians would YOU give an episode this full of goodness!?
