Happy holidays everybody, while we're on our hiatus we figured we'd give each other (and you) a Holiday treat of an episode where Zach & Nas give each other the gift of some of our favorite TV episodes in our Holiday Special Extravaganza! This has all the things that made your favorite Christmas Special great, mobsters, hillbillies, beatniks, Civil War ghosts & sociology students!

From the parking lot of the Oakland A’s Coliseum to the top of the Billboard charts, MC Hammer emerged a 90s branding powerhouse. Out of his many endeavors, the Hammerman cartoon became a short-lived Saturday morning staple. Zach and Nas reminisce about early 90s mega-fads, awful animation, and possibly the most complicated theme song of all time. Graffiti: good or bad? MC Hammer can’t quite decide, but it makes for an entertaining episode! Join us to discuss the rise and inevitable downfall of Hammer, who influenced a lot of kids to wear puffy pants.

As one of the longest running shows in history, if you haven’t heard of Saturday Night Live, where have you been? On our spooktacular Halloween special we watch the October 30th, 1993 edition of SNL - guest starring Christian Slater and the Smashing Pumpkins! Nas is in 90s heaven as she gets to talk about one of her favorite bands and hero, Billy Corgan. Zach is also in heaven, because he loves SNL lore and trivia. Come for Chris Farley’s golden era, stay for those Sassy Boys! But feel free to skip the Weekend Update, because it was dated and bad.

NOT the sitcom.Are you ready for the world’s most sleepy show? Zach and Nas try not to fall into a deep slumber while recalling the precision, straight-from-the-manual schematics of World War 2 fighter planes! If you love planes, planes, and more planes, then Wings (the documentary-style show, not the sitcom) is for you. Content warning: we’ll be talking about Nazis a bit in this episode, so if historically-minded dialogue about such bothers you, please feel free to skip to the next episode.

Spinoffs, spinoffs, spinoffs! Would this 80s era Cheers offshoot be as successful as its sister show, Frasier? Zach and Nas discuss the pitfalls and minor successes of this strange sitcom starring Nick Tortelli, estranged husband of Carla from Cheers.

What makes a television show great? The Tortellis probably isn’t going to help us answer that question. But we had a good time anyway.
