S19E10 - E Pluribus Wiggum

It was (or may soon be?) Super Tuesday so WEE are getting political and watching Season 19's E Pluribus Wiggum, a gimmick that sort of resembles an episode with a plot that barely resembles a story. Basically, a number of antics lead to Ralph Wiggum running for President. Did The Purge win on Super Tuesday? Why shouldn't we name He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named? And has Leonardo DiCaprio become an undead creature of the night? All that plus peak guacamole, Butterfinger promises, and Hangin' Brain with Mr. Cooper.

S19E03 - Midnight Towboy

Crack open a lobsterpolitan and settle in for Season 19's Midnight Towboy, not to be confused with Midnight Cowboy, which doesn't rhyme. Homer has been a plow truck driver, a regular truck driver, but a tow truck driver?! Where do they get their ideas?! Meanwhile, Jack & Dan celebrate their Fortyversary by having a mid-life crisis despite their lives being good enough while discussing extra beats, lingering jokes, and Maggie's IQ. How did Dan crash the stock market with his big soda? Is Groovic the Twophic that broke the Groophic's back? Will "Snap Into a Toe" take America's t-shirts by storm? All that plus Jack's Competitive Mighty Max podcast, WEE retcons itself... and Jeremy Piven. (Ohhh yeaaaah)

S19E11 – That 90’s Show

Load up on guns and bring your friends to “That 90’s Show” in the third installment of “Worst Episode Ever.” Yes, Dan and Jack watch the infamous season 19 episode that changes the romantic history of Marge and Homer by adding in a bunch of 90s references. We discuss our shared love of lazer tag, wax poetic about when Semisonic was a thing, and debate the universal timelessness of “Weird Al” Yankovic. Take a startling look into the “reverse-future” of The Simpsons, without a single horse plot unlike previous episodes of “W.E.E.” Why was this a Christmas episode, kind of? Did Pauly Shore get mentioned in an episode about the 90s? Do you want us to record podcasts about “Saved by the Bell” and “A Pup Named Scooby Doo?” Check it out, and see if you think “That 90’s Show” should unseat “Saddlesore Galactica” on our master list of the worst Simpsons episodes ever.
