Emily and Andrew tag along as Bill goes magazine shopping for a sick and whiny Mel, who's at home berating Brownie because the only pleasure in a man's life is tormenting his lady employees. But when Bill profiles the pharamicist, things start getting interesting. I mean, at least it's not boring. Tune in as our intrepid hosts ask the age old question--if a six foot tall man is shrunk to six inches, how big is his thermometer?

Emily and Andrew join Mel and Bill on their trip to Hong Kong, which features very few people of Chinese origin, mainland or HK. Instead, Mel and Bill are trying to help foil people trying to escape to capitalism. Because 1959's weird.

Another week, another whirlwind trip to questionable locales. In this case, an unnamed Carribean island where the U.S. government has lost a spy rocket. Luckily, crack counter-espionage doll man Mel Hunter is on it. Well, maybe not luckily. Not since Emily and Andrew had to watch it to talk about it. Yes, there's a talking donkey, no, there's not any good miniature. And does Brownie get another exceptionally problematic story arc just because she's the girl? Oh, yeah. Luckily. Harumpf.

Emily and Andrew (especially Andrew) are a little punchy with the news J.D. Vance grew up in suburban Ohio and not impoverished in Appalachia and he's just a liar. Anyway. Mel and Bill are on assignment in Miami, they treat Ms. Brown like dirt, get into slight intrigue, oogle, there's a lot to talk about even beyond J.D. Vance being a liar. Also, some ideas about feedback formats for the pod.

Emily and Andrew come to the awkward realization, no matter how adorable the low-fi special effects can get, the show being about a giant twerp, all two to six inches of him, is too much. But they do have some fun talking... and sometimes about the show!

Turns out Emily and Andrew are in for more surprises as this episode retcons Mel being a jerk to lady regular character Brownie and apologizing to ... him saying he'll never apologize and he does it because he likes her. Swell. But there some big special effects swings (and stumbles). Loads of fun.

Emily and Andrew are in for a big surprise when return to THE WORLD OF GIANTS because all of a sudden, there are lady folks, recognizable supporting players, and sturdy effects sequences. Oh, and no animal cruelty. It's like it's an entirely different show... except most assuredly, real life 6-inch spy Mel Hunter, is, again, very real, no matter what your mom tells you.

Emily and Andrew head into the yard to smoke some squares, hunt innocent gophers, and avoid raking leaves for as long as they can. They run across the world's totally non-fiction, real-world six-inch espionage agent... Mel Hunter. And step on him. They wish. Tune in as they discuss their regrets in not doing so.

That's right, folks! MORE ANIMAL CRUELTY! Maybe they really didn't do it. Maybe. Anyway, it's the episode Emily and Andrew have been waiting for--not the animal cruelty, jeez--but the incredibly cheap incredible shrinking effects. Oh, and we get to see what WORLD OF GIANTS thinks of the ladies... Buckle up.

Emily and Andrew were planning for a relaxing afternoon in the garage, using their tools to solder, as ones do when preparing to testify against the Mob. Hope no one sends them a TIME BOMB disguised as a book-of-the-month club selection. Even worse... what if they don't have a secret agent spy Ken doll to save them!?!
