Ep. 122: It’s F*cking Milk

Leslie and Ron are each holding press conferences to promote their bids for land. Ron, Tom, and Donna have Anabel Porter from Bloosh, and Leslie has…a descendant of William Henry Harrison, ninth President of the United States. What a standoff!

Meanwhile, Terry has become a notary—“No, Terry!”—and is delighting in every minute of it. Ben has to continually get things signed, and Andy and April try to figure out what the latter is good at so she can turn it into her career.

Plus, putting Texas Roadhouse butter onto things besides their rolls, the Harlem Shake, spoiling movies with twist endings before they happen, and Sean has a grudge from five years ago that still grinds his gears.

Ep. 105: Cones of Dunshire

Parks n Wrecked Podcast Logo

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. 89: If True, This Guy Wants In

Parks n Wrecked Logo - A podcast about Parks and Rec

Leslie offers a bailout to a local movie store, but it backfires with hilarious results. April and Ann are best friends for a week, and together with Donna they perform a stirring rendition of “Time After Time.”

Jenny Slate as Mona-Lisa Saperstein makes her first appearance in the show, and that’s really all you need to know. Brandi Maxxx is also back on the scene, much to the delight of Sean.

This episode has (at least according to Joey), the BEST cold open in the entire show. Do you agree? If true, you’re awesome.

Plus, we cover the Parks and Rec reunion,  Also, we really got off on a college basketball tangent there at the start, didn’t we?

Ep. 87: Close Only Counts in Horse Grenades

Parks n Wrecked Logo - A podcast about Parks and Rec

Wait, are Leslie and Ben really going through with this whole “let’s get married tonight” thing? Sure seems like it! That means everyone has jobs. Leslie and Ann are working on procuring a dress. Ben and Chris are looking for wedding rings. Ron is walking Leslie down the aisle. Donna’s giving us GREAT vocals. Andy and April are finding marriage licenses. Tom and Jerry (hehe) are writing a speech.

But wait! Councilman Jamm is here to try and ruin everything. Luckily, the Pawnee parks crew isn’t about to let anyone get Jammed today. And Leslie and Ben will get their big day after all.

Plus, all kinds of drama around Animal Crossing, a deep dive into grenades (including a dissection of the song “Grenade” by Bruno Mars), and Joey is fired up about The Last Dance documentary on the 1997-98 Chicago Bulls. We also reminisce about the time our dog brought in a rat from outside. YIKES.

Ep. 85: The Calzones Betrayed Me?!

Parks n Wrecked Logo - A podcast about Parks and Rec

Ann is looking to have a child, so she starts interviewing potential sperm donors. And boy oh boy are the pickings slim. As a result, Leslie is doing her best to stop everything, as is her MO. Meanwhile, Ben, Ron, Chris, and Tom taste test food for the wedding, but the calzones treat them incredibly poorly. How dare they. But this leads to one of the best scenes in the entire series, so we’ll take it.

For some reason, Leslie can’t attend ANY town hall meetings this week. That means April and Andy are in charge. They also get to deal with a very delightful cameo from Harris Wittels.

Plus, we’re chatting Disneyland, how Vice Presidents used to openly duel people, flip cup challenges, and the life advice that has served Sean well throughout his entire life.

Ep. 84: This is Garbage

Parks n Wrecked Logo - A podcast about Parks and Rec

We may be social distancing, but we’re not letting that get us down! And perhaps it’s fitting that the world is knee-deep in garbage, because we’re covering the episode “Women in Garbage” today. Sean is far away and sounds a bit like he’s in a well, but we’re doing our best with what we can, people.

For some reason, Ron once again has to play babysitter for his girlfriend, Diane, Warrior Princess. She can’t seem to find adequate care for her children! Luckily, Ron’s got Ann on his side, and she’s terrible at watching kids, too. Meanwhile, Leslie and April are picking up garbage to show they’re just as proficient as men when it comes to tackling sanitation needs. Oh, and Andy and Ben are trying to teach Tom how to play basketball. Spoiler alert: it doesn’t go well.

Plus, frustration with the government, dumb people that blatantly ignore useful rules, and we provide some activities you can do while practicing social distancing. And Haleigh gets SUPER heated during her Top 5. Take a listen!

Ep. 83: Okay Guy, Settle Down

Parks n Wrecked Logo - A podcast about Parks and Rec

We’re celebrating a ton of bachelor parties (and one bachelorette party). That means a lot of fancy drinks, penis-shaped items, and general shenanigans. The boys certainly have a better time, though, between Settlers of Catan and tossing a football around with members of the Indianapolis Colts. There are also a lot of celebrity cameos in this episode, so hope everyone is keeping a close eye on things.

Plus, we’re talking about former professional athletes, how you can turn any meal into brunch, childhood schoolyard games, and Sean lets us know how many mini Totinos Pizza Rolls he ate the other day. Spoiler alert: it’s an uncomfortable amount.

This episode is also FILLED with great quotes (including “Okay guy, settle down”), so if you need fun things to say around the house over the coming weeks, we’ve got you covered.

Ep. 82: Little Ditty About Ron and Diane

Parks n Wrecked Logo - A podcast about Parks and Rec

This is one of the finest episodes of Parks and Rec but probably not one of our finest podcast episodes. But we’ll let you be the judge of that, eh? Jerry’s hosting a dinner party and the people that are usually the meanest to him haven’t been invited. Leslie, Ron, and Diane try to avoid the madness that is Tammy 2 at a woodworking awards banquet. Shenanigans ensue, including a lot of flashing and a fight in a dumpster. Meanwhile, Chris is drinking FULL FAT eggnog. What is he thinking?

We also talk about some delightful video games that feature soccer elements like Rocket League, Crazy Taxi 2, and Excitebike. Plus, the weird ways to spell Haleigh and the introduction of Jerry’s family! And Duke Silver makes another appearance! What lucky ducks we are.

Ep. 79: Meet the Parents

Parks n Wrecked Logo - A podcast about Parks and Rec

Ben and Leslie are engaged – time to throw a party! There’s only one problem: Ben’s parents can’t stand each other, and Ben is worried they’ll derail the whole shindig. Meanwhile, Tom and Jean Ralphio have a new business idea, but it seems only Tom is taking it seriously. Will that be enough for Ron to invest? We’ll have to find out! Also, Chris is sad. But what else is new?

Sean’s planning a work trip FOR parks and rec activities. What a fun time! This week was Fat Tuesday and we certainly celebrated in style (via eating 65 pounds of food). He’s also furious over the new pizza from Pizza Hut that features cheese sticks as part of the crust. Things are just getting wild over here.
