Yarrr raise the flag on the space pirate ship, we're having a democratic meeting to discuss whether X marks the spot on this episode. Fry and Kif and Bender (if there's time) get captured and it's up to the PlanEx crew to rescue them from maybe the coolest pirates ever. Also there is a plot about the D.O.O.P. and the Vampire Empire. Meanwhile we are talking about the only food we'd ever eat again…
Bender's abuelatron gets scammed! So he decided to scam the scammer, only to get scammed... into love? Also it turns out that the scammer has a legitimate catfish farm. And on top of it, the rest of the Planet Express crew tries to scam the scammer as well, including a scheme involving a secret decimal point and professor fun bucks. There's an orangutan with a multi-use banana. Meanwhile, we're…
We're back for a new season! Fry gets back into the exciting world of competitive hot dog eating. The professor gets into the exciting world of cloning cows to make 100% all beef hot dogs for competitive hot dog eating. Plus, a competitor returns from the year of 1999... kinda. Meanwhile, we're talking about hot dogs and paint colors (no together, obviously). We're out there in the world getting…
The crew is selected to go witness the birth of a new universe! But the problem is that they will age terribly, tens of millions of years! So they hatch a plan to sleep in a carbonara stasis and then shenanigans ensue. Of course. Meanwhile... well we're actually kind of on task for once? We don't go on too many digressions other than a few video games. But we do try to figure out what the worst…
Bender goes truffle hunting! There's a pig! The robot mafia is there! We basically summed up the episode in three sentences. Good job everyone, we did it. Yet somehow we produced a 90 minute long episode? That's right, that must mean Back to the Futurama is back. We're also talking about the urge to throw your phone into the river and move into the forest, and a late nod to... mayonnaise? Fine,…
Zoidberg loses his hip bachelor pad. Leela loses patience with her parents. Fry somehow DOESN'T lose his pants in this one despite all the other times it has happened this season. Also there's something about a blenal gland and crabasaurs also existed. It's all explained in the episode. Meanwhile we're talking about millennial memes, mayonnaise, and spiders. I'm not sure if that is supposed to get…
Something something scandal at a local pizzeria I simply cannot be bothered by that. But also, we go on a fun adventure to the Central Bureaucracy and fight something that does 2d12 damage. Look nerds, I accidentally say 1d12 damage when Dwight clearly said 2d12. Also I said a bastard sword does 1d12 damage when really it does 1d10, and I meant greatsword which I'm also wrong about because that…
The rapture is here! Everybody is getting raptured... almost. The few stragglers try to figure out why this is happening from a scientific perspective. I guess. Mostly it's just yelling about how good science is? It's fine, we'll get into it. Meanwhile we're talking about elevator music and Shakespeare plays somehow. Ben dies as he lives. Mike enters his Benoit Blanc era.
These darn kids with their screens! Always on their screens! Why won't they stop looking at them!? If only there was some sort of program to get them to stop, perhaps taught by some sort of famous war hero / war criminal? Also, while the kids are away, the parents will play (get massively drunk). Meanwhile, we're talking about the things we're bad at, our histories of being nerds on a burgeoning…
Amy uncovers a secret number station plot to develop a device to travel to Numberland, a world where there are only numbers. ONLY NUMBERS. Bender is afraid of every number except 0 and 1. Fry tries to become an artist. Also, special guest Danica McKellar. On the Futurama episode and not our podcast. Obviously. (But if you want to guest, Danica, please reach out). Meanwhile, we're talking about…
Fry and Leela are on the rocks (again) and so Fry gets an illegal magic mirror to prove that Leela is his soul mate. This backfires when Leela's soul mate is revealed to be the man, the myth, the legend Branch Woodsman. Hilarity ensues. Meanwhile, we're talking about being the coolest kid in school, karaoke and strippers, and of course the esteemed acting career of one Mr. Kenny G. Ben needs to…
