Ep. 81: Let’s Build a Park, Shall We?

Leslie Knope is MAD this episode because she has to deal with those rude folks over in Eagleton, who want to build a park for Pawnee. And a big chunk of the Pawnee crew is helping Tom get Rent-a-Swag off the ground. Meanwhile, Andy and April have some of their greatest shenanigans and wrap it all up by helping a lost kid (named Joey!) find his mother. But we do say goodbye to Burt Macklin, one of the best damn agents the FBI has ever seen.

We recently celebrated Haleigh’s birthday, so we’re all kind of tired. Also, you know…the news is pretty sad lately. But we’re not talking about that, mainly because we recorded before things went to hell this week. Instead, we’re chatting the deliciousness of McDonald’s cookies, how parks get created, and seeing Jen Barkley in car commercials.

Sean also has a very special announcement in this episode, and it’s 100% worth tuning in for that. Thanks for listening.

Ep. 75: Soda Taxes and Training Interns

Leslie wants to introduce a soda tax on the ABSURDLY large cups that Sweetums is selling to people. Across the country in Washington, D.C. Ben Wyatt tries to earn the respect of his interns. But first, he has to win over someone near and dear to his heart. While all of that’s going on, Tom and Chris try to get Andy into tip-top shape to join the police force. Andy runs a lot and it gets us winded.

Meanwhile, Sean is in incredible pain from all of the sports he’s been playing recently, we briefly talk about our favorite Oscars films (despite only seeing between 11 and 22 percent of the nominations), and we dissect the wonderful meme of Rob Lowe wearing a hat with the NFL logo on it. Joey also goes on a passionate rant against Apple despite having way too many Apple products, but the rant is only for like 30 seconds. Sorry, Siri.

After we recorded this episode, Kobe Bryant, his daughter Gianna and seven others were killed in a helicopter crash outside Los Angeles. We hopped on the phone to record an additional outro, sharing some of our favorite Kobe Bryant moments and what he accomplished with basketball, business, and storytelling. If you haven’t seen his Oscar-winning “Dear Basketball” short, we’d highly recommend it.

Ep. 55: It’s the End of the World As We Know It

It’s the end of the world as we know it, and we feel fine, I guess. Zorp is on his way to Pawnee, and Leslie and Ron are enjoying an apocalyptic party. Meanwhile, April helps Andy check things off his bucket list. Tom and Jean-Ralphio are throwing a party, too, to celebrate the extravagant demise of Entertainment 720. Plus, Sean’s diet gets derailed by a new cake concept, embracing awkward moments, and an old friend of the podcast returns with serious style.

Ep. 54: Meeting, Greeting, and Halloweening

Leslie is meetin’ and greetin’ local businesses but Tom is taking everything over with Entertainment 720 branding. In the meantime, Andy and April are throwing a party but their other roommate, Ben, has no idea said party was happening. WHAT SHENANIGANS!

Plus, we’re talking really weird themed parties, favorite Halloween costumes, adventures at baseball games, and Sean is mad about an excessive amount of hair in his workplace. And he’s also got an update about the potential swingers he met at the grocery store!

Ep. 41: Andy and April Host a Fancy Party

Andy and April are hosting a fancy party, but are things all that they seem? Meanwhile, Donna and Ann hit up a singles night. On our end, Sean has a LOT of gripes. We talk about taking the charge on random people, not noticing cute dogs, giving wedding speeches and being flower girls, obscure celebrity sightings at the airport, and the terrible people that like to spoil shows and movies, like, oh…say, Game of Thrones and Avengers Endgame.

We always share some things we discuss on our social channels, so be sure to follow us on Twitter and Facebook!
