    • Episode 104: Bart's Birthday or Maybe You're A Jerk

      We chose a recent episode, so recent that it originally aired only a few weeks ago. A star studded Series Finale fake out that starts as a tribute to the long running series turns into a nice little story about Bart being forced to deal with change. We really enjoyed this one, so much so that Patrick might give some more recent episodes a chance. Join us as we also discuss:-

      - A "Hello Therapist" segment right off the bat

      - Cori spills all the tea on her beef with Kerri Russell

      - Homeboys from Outer Space and other ridiculous shows from the past

      - Poorly timed applause

      - Would this be a satisfying finale?


      Our Recommendations

      - Bryan: Agatha All Along on Disney+ & the Curb Your Enthusiasm Finale on Max

      - Cori: Doctor Odyssey on ABC, Inside You with Michael Rosenbaum the podcast and RIP Tony Todd and his film Immortal
