Parks n Wrecked Podcast Logo

Listen to “Time is Money, Money is Power, Power is Pizza, Pizza is Knowledge” on Spreaker.

It’s Leslie’s last day in the city council office! She’s saying her goodbyes — will there be one last shenanigan before she heads out? Probably. It IS Parks and Rec, after all.

Meanwhile, Tom is trying to find his next big investment deal and runs a mini Shark Tank experience for people to share their great ideas. Pizza is knowledge, yo. And Ann and Chris debate whether they want to find out the sex of their baby.

Plus, weddings that don’t have open bars, whether Miley Cyrus or Selena Gomez has more jams, and Sean needs to take some probiotics, STAT.

Ep. 105: Cones of Dunshire

Parks n Wrecked Podcast Logo

Listen to “Cones of Dunshire” on Spreaker.

Introducing…the Cones of Dunshire! Leslie also uses the insult “dinkhead,” which is a new one to all of us. She’s trying to win her last battle against Councilman Jamm, and it includes a hibachi grill, karaoke, and plenty of shenanigans. We wouldn’t expect anything less.

Meanwhile, Ron is trying to sell his cabin, and Tom, Donna, and April are all involved. Who will end up with the cabin? That hipster couple? A Sam Elliott-type character (but not the Sam Elliott that guest-starred a few episodes ago)? The tension is palpable!

Plus, a creative way to watch college sports live during a time of social distancing, Sean gives updates on his dating life, and he and Joey foolishly got coerced into playing fantasy football. Gross.

Oh, and we’ve finally figured out a punishment for the loser of trivia this season! Tune in to see what it is.

Ep. 104: I Need to Go Lie Down for 45 Minutes…No, An Hour! A Full Hour!

Parks n Wrecked Podcast Logo

Listen to “I Need to Go Lie Down for 45 Minutes…No, An Hour! A Full Hour!” on Spreaker.

Leslie has already been recalled, so it’s time for her to be a loose cannon! This is one of our “Pawneeans are pretty darn dumb” episodes, so hope you’re ready for some stupidity. A full hour of stupidity! Sadly, Ben ends up out of a job by the end of this episode, and it’s all Leslie’s fault. They also seem to forget she still has a job within the parks and rec department, but let’s not worry about that.

Meanwhile, Chris is reading a ton of baby books authored by celebrities, Ron gets metaphorical with Moby Dick, and just about everyone else is comparing the Parks people to dogs. Indianapolis Colts legends Andrew Luck and Reggie Wayne are back in this episode, too, for some reason.

Plus, the top radio stations from our childhood, how gross the Drink Ums Gatorade knock-off drinks look, parties with frogs, and we’re helping Sean out with some potential matches on Hinge.

Parks n Wrecked Podcast Logo

Listen to “Bloosh! It's a Recall Vote” on Spreaker.

Leslie Knope is up for a recall vote! Will she make it out the other side? Let’s find out! It’s also Halloween, despite this episode airing in mid-November. But we don’t need to pay attention to minor details like that.

Meanwhile, Annabel Porter, Pawnee’s version of Gwyneth Paltrow, stops by to share some hot tips and recruit Ron Swanson for her Bloosh lifestyle line of products. Tom and Donna are thrilled. Ron is not.

Plus, one of Sean’s favorite spots in college, whether The Great Gatsby is a good book or not, and Haleigh crushes Sean’s dreams by ruining the illusion of magic in one of this episode’s scenes. What a bummer.
