Ep. 72: The Quest for City Council

Listen to “The Quest for City Council” on Spreaker.

It’s the start of the year but the end of the season – the time has finally come to vote for city council. Will Leslie defeat Bobby Newport? Can Ben Wyatt handle a drink of whiskey, neat? What kind of alternate career options are available for Andy and April? How many times did Chris Traeger and Jen Barkley have sex in one night? Are Ann and Tom really getting back together?

We’ve got questions of our own, too. Will Sean pass out during the episode due to allergies? Will Haleigh defeat Sean in the season’s trivia? Is Malort the worst drink ever? Will Sean try a new sport in 2020? And is he truly a Hufflepuff? Is it even worth it to watch a New Year’s Eve celebration? Can Sean flex his fingers at all?

Find out the answers plus a lot more in our first episode of the new year!

Ep. 71: Bert Macklin and the Pie Bandit

Listen to “Bert Macklin and the Pie Bandit” on Spreaker.

It’s our last episode of the year (and decade, some might say)! Leslie and Bobby Newport have a nice chat, even though her tour bus interrupted a memorial for his late father. He’s so forgiving, that Bobby Newport. Chris Traeger needs to keep moving forever or else he’ll dissolve into a pit of darkness. Tom showcases a bit of his entrepreneurial mind with a snazzy alcohol-flavored yogurt concept called Yogurt Platinum.

Mike O’Malley’s here too, though, we like him better as the host of Guts and Global Guts. And this episode features one of Joey’s favorite scenes, when Andy Dwyer – as Bert Macklin – recreates Jerry getting pied by a rogue attacker.

We also discuss whether you can send CBD products through the mail, brazenly forget what the point of the S.S. Anne is in the original Pokemon games, and dive deep into the stats of the different Legends of the Hidden Temple teams. Very topical, as the show is about to get a reboot. Also, Sean dazzles us with his AMAZING Rodney Dangerfield impression, as well as a few other good ones he’s kept hidden up his sleeve.

Here are some of Joey’s impressions, too. They’re very bad. Haleigh and Sean each share mischievous stories regarding pianos.

Ep. 67: Jen Barkley is Shaking Things Up!

Listen to “Jen Barkley is Shaking Things Up!” on Spreaker.

We got new POP filters, y’all. And how fitting, because this episode is poppin’ with new character Jennifer Barkley. She’s leading the campaign for Bobby Newport and has become quite the thorn in Leslie Knope’s side. She and Ben Wyatt are trying to get the support of the elderly community, but Jen Barkley always seems to be two steps ahead. How can they persevere?

Meanwhile, the citizens of Pawnee can’t stop putting their entire mouths on water fountains. Ann and the crew try to solve the issue, and thanks to some creative thinking from April, the job gets done. Will that lead to a promotion for April? We’ll JUST HAVE TO FIND OUT.

Plus we’re talking how easily new phones can break, express our amazement at how quickly Sean can slam 11 cookies from McDonald’s, and chat about some of the best classic Britney Spears songs. Sean still doesn’t appreciate how Perd Hapley speaks, but on the plus side, he comes through with a last-second Top 5 shake up! We dive into our favorite shakes. YUM.

Ep. 61: Bobby Newport and the Ad Campaign

Listen to “Bobby Newport and the Ad Campaign” on Spreaker.

Leslie Knope needs to make a new campaign ad – but Bobby Newport stands in her way. Kind of. Will the team go with Leslie’s kind ad or Ben Wyatt’s smear campaign? Meanwhile, Andy and April just learned about health insurance and are trying to get tested for every disease.

We also run through our defining Paul Rudd movies, alternate Twix flavors from childhood, Joey’s Kentucky Derby adventures, and people using service dogs while grocery shopping. Plus we follow up on a controversial subject from a couple of episodes ago. Hop on in!
