Onesies

Emily and Andrew blast off to a galaxy far, far away, where Richard Benjamin does a quirky* sci-fi sitcom straight-faced. Quirky meaning proto-transphobic, sexist, and pervy. Listen as the intrepid hosts brave pre-STAR WARS nighttime television sci-fi!

Emily and Andrew dock for the very last time with Prof, Darwyn, Simon, Theodore, and all the rest of the gang. There's a lot of (talking about) action (and talking about talking about action from our intrepid hosts), and not much else. There's a lot of tangents, both because Emily and Andrew aren't interested in talking about the show, and because they're setting up for a bit. Or they're not. No one's quite sure.

In an episode so cozy it's hard to determine when, if anything, any events occur onscreen, Emily and Andrew try to keep the boat on track. Even as they have to discuss women supporting women, David Tennant mooning, and... dancing, perhaps? Something else for sure. Nothing interesting, obviously.

Completing the show's very special New Year's duet, Emily talks about how well DUCK PATROL executes its duck-related puns, muted dramatics, thrill sequences, and much more. Andrew offers useful, helpful observations.

As listeners can guess, Emily and Andrew employ a rigorous, industry-best process for making sure they're in sync when preparing for the show. This week, we all get to enjoy that dedication as the hosts discuss mermaids, mooning, reading, and coziness. HAPPY NEW YEAR!

The intrepid lads and lady of DUCK PATROL find themselves in hot water for not cracking enough skulls. Emily and Andrew find themselves bored watching as they figure out how to make it appear they're getting the job done. Sort of. This episode does not turn Emily around on the show.

Emily and Andrew settle in for another cozy mystery on the waterfront featuring bad communication about staff parties, British men who like sheep, and boats. No ducks, at least?

Despite Andrew's attempts to find an Emily-friendly subject show (ahem, David Tennant), DUCK PATROL receives a milqetoast welcome. Which tracks, given the substance of the show, which is about police corruption and incompetence, as are all police shows, ducks or not.

Emily and Andrew reach the end of another one season wonder or blunder and are left with many a question about their decisions. You too, dear listener, will be left with questions because Andrew gets the name of next season's show wrong! But join our intrepid hosts as they bid farewell to DWEEBS and Stephen Tobolowsky (for now?).

If you can't guess from the title, this episode was recorded immediately following the 2024 election in the United States. Join hosts Emily and Andrew as they try to stay on topic but find themselves distracted by the definitionally progressive television show from 1995. They also try to figure out why Wendie Malick agreed to guest starring on this twerpy show.
