Lots of stuff in here—rhetoric creating an intentional backlash, gentle parenting, umbrellas in the park (Don admits he was wrong so mark the episode), and more! Hunker down on the toilet and enjoy…

We start with the ‘hawk tuah’ girl and gradually wind around to the use of photography to fool us, face blindness, ‘kidney’ friends, and the realization that David’s sons are to be called ‘master.’

David has Harry on his mind (shock!) and Don has thoughts. Also, there is a question of personal branding for both monkeys.

The Himmel crew head off to vacation at the Lake of the Ozarks. David recorded some of it for your edification. Hall slept in.

The Literate Apes consider whether they are dyed in the wool Satanists and Hall pulls hard on the thread of perpetual therapy as a solution to any sort of real world problems.

Hall is working with a lot of Chicago police in his job in the park and has a few observations. Himmel is not as anti-cop as he appears.

The chimps are starting to feel the march of time in their lower backs and ankles and sit in Himmel’s kitchen and bitch about it.

Parents often shower their love upon us by buying us lawn mowers and droids. These are the tales of parenting through commerce.

Himmel flips the calendar page from 44 with a wife and a job to 45 divorced and unemployed. Tough freaking year. He shares the lessons he learned in this tumultuous 365 days.

Hall joins David in his newly emptied home, does his dishes, and they discuss everything from the divorce to Elvis Presley. Also some Stallone, Israel, and the smoke show that is J. Brush.
