Get in the spaceship and hide that baby—this week we’re talking about Fantastic Four! As the next (and last?) chapter in our Superhero Summer series, we dive into the latest entry from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. We cover the storyline, casting, and planet-eating villains that go into this movie, highlighting its unique aesthetic.

And of course we also get into the molemen, Silver Surfers, and home cooked meals that make up the film. 

Look, I know you don’t want to say it, but it’s clobbering time.

Some of them are questions, and some contain pointed yet welcome feedback on our takes and past episodes. We talk about Michael’s diet, who we’d cast to play us in a movie about the podcast, best ways to eat potatoes, and more.

“Hey, it’s cool man. I work in the warehouse. I’m cool! I’m hip and I’m jive, but I don’t care about nobody! Do you know who I am? Happy Halloween, jerk!”

This week we’re drafting Darryl moments! Prompted by listener-suggestion (thanks Jim!) we go through and draft our favorite scenes, moments, and clips from Craig Robinson's run on the show. We do our best to show that he’s more than just smooth, mellow, soulful, and smart for warehouse. And if we know Darryl, it’s gonna be zoppity.

Then we head to the Conference Room for a quick rundown of what we’re reading/watching/listening to this summer!

Grab your shield and put on your metal arm—this week we’re talking about Captain America: The Winter Soldier! Inspired by Sean’s polarizing takes on and a request from a listener, we dive into this Marvel classic from 2014. We go through the corruption, intrigue, and shield throwing that make up the movie, highlighting all of the USB drives, broken glass, and government spending that go into this thriller.

Then we give out some Dundies and give some closing thoughts before we go back on ice until the next episode!

Andy: “By show of hands, who thinks we’re a better couple than Jim and Pam?"

Book another non-refundable deposit and moonwalk past accounting one more time—this week we’re talking about Andy and Angela! We dedicate this week’s episode to the unique and often hilarious pairing that takes place over seasons 4 and 5, culminating in the duel. We cover all of the story beats, things made of ice, and wedding planning that go into their relationship. And of course highlight all of the tuna kisses, kitchen manure, and phone call acapella that goes into that arc.

Then we head to the Conference Room (59:41) for a quick check-in on Father’s Day, favorite household chores, and more!

Oh, here's that link to Andy & Angela's wedding site.

Dwight: Wait. [holds up fingers] He's gonna kill the store? And he's gonna fire me?

Jim: Yes.Dwight: [smiles] That's two things.

This week is another Casual Thursday! Each host was supposed to prepare 2 things to discuss, but we end up covering a whole lot more. We talk about shows we wish would come back, which bear is best, topics for our own TED talks, and even do a mini-draft! Then we close out the episode with another unique listener-submitted trivia.

Call us ASAP as possible—this week we’re drafting Michael’s malapropisms! We dedicate this week to the greatest hits of Michael’s botched, mistaken, and fumbled phrases over the course of the show. We had to stop at five rounds, otherwise this thing could’ve spiraled out of amok.

Then we close out the show with a fun round of ‘before and after’ trivia sent in by a listener!

Put down the Kurt Vonnegut and put on your helmet, you’re going in at quarterback as we watch Varsity Blues! Alex and Sean have never seen this high school football cult classic from 1999 that is also at the heart of Michael Scott’s movie Monday. We talk about the good, the bad, the insane, the toxic, and the ridiculous that go into this movie, making sure to highlight all of the broken noses, house parties, and whipped cream bikinis on the way to the end zone. 

Then in the Conference Room we answer a few extra questions from our Scott’s Tots Patreon community about best Beatles songs, greatest athletes, superhero movies, and more!

Get in the skiff, museum space pod, or 737–this week we’re talking about The Last of Us and The Rehearsal! It’s an HBO double feature where we cover two different season 2s with high production costs and unique depictions of humanity. 

We start by highlighting our favorite and then less favorite parts of The Last of Us (7:05) before diving into what the future could hold for season 3 and beyond in the verdant green hellscape that is this version of Seattle. 

And then we pivot to The Rehearsal (39:53), Nathan Fielder’s truly one-of-a-kind production that looks at both human nature and aviation safety. We discuss the whole season (all well as we can), covering all of the aviation singing contests, cloned dogs, and Evanescence songs along the way.
