    “Mr. Irresistible” (Season 1, Episode 1)

    This is a weird one, folks. In an effort to cleanse their pallets of the Simpsons stinkers they’ve recently encountered, Pat and Craig thought it would be funny to take a look at the first episode of the ill-begotten Michael Richards Show. And it was funny alright, but not “Ha-Ha” funny. Strap yourselves in for a bumpy one!

    “Black Eyed, Please” (Season 24, Episode 15)

    Pat and Craig hike up their short-pants and do their darnedest to not lose their minds during this strange, Frankenstein’s monster of an episode. Also, apologies for the audio quality…we have no idea what happened there.

    “Opposites O-Frack” (Season 26, Episode 5)

    The Simpsons swerve back into “Issues” territory, with this episode which tackles fracking. You can probably guess how it goes.
