Dear Humans,

God watched the new season of King of the Hill that just dropped on Disney Plus.

And lo, it was hilaglorius.

Even better, I got to speak with one of the funniest new members of the cast, actor and comedian Anthony "CiTRiC" Campos, who plays Bobby Hill's assistant chef Emilio.

We learned how Anthony first worked with Mike Judge as a cabinet member on Idiocracy.

I gush over the return of King of the Hill and why the new season hits harder than ever. Anthony gives me his dating tips and so much more. Tune in for a fun hang sesh.

Love,

God
