No four finger discount. 8 00:00:27.800 --> 00:00:45.880 Ude, Welcome to four Finger Discount where this week we 9 00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:48.640 here to review. Well, first of all, I'm Dando. Hey, 10 00:00:48.679 --> 00:00:52.719 I'm guys. So I've been doing this podcast for eleven years, right, 11 00:00:52.799 --> 00:00:56.439 you've been doing it for six. We've reviewed some absolute stinkers, 12 00:00:56.439 --> 00:00:58.920 some episodes. I still fall back in Codependence Day, that's 13 00:00:58.960 --> 00:01:03.039 the podcast, because it made me so angry. Like I said, 14 00:01:03.039 --> 00:01:05.719 we were reviewed some absolute stinkers those over those years. 15 00:01:06.200 --> 00:01:08.840 But to quote camp Bruckman, this one outstinks them all. 16 00:01:09.719 --> 00:01:11.640 We've got a new jam Bladers and gentlemen. 17 00:01:11.719 --> 00:01:14.840 This one was bad in the sense I think this 18 00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:18.159 was worse than Codependence Day because this one didn't have 19 00:01:18.640 --> 00:01:24.079 any logic, any jokes, an ending that was so far 20 00:01:24.159 --> 00:01:28.400 fetched and ludicrous. It just left me not angry, baffled. 21 00:01:28.879 --> 00:01:31.920 And that's before we even get into the whole weeds 22 00:01:31.959 --> 00:01:33.920 of has this age poorly. 23 00:01:34.439 --> 00:01:37.239 Yeah, you had one of the biggest i'd say one 24 00:01:37.239 --> 00:01:38.959 of the biggest stars at the time. Sash about it current. 25 00:01:39.000 --> 00:01:41.079 He was just coming off the Borat film was two 26 00:01:41.079 --> 00:01:43.439 thousand and six. I think it's a twenty ten Alig. 27 00:01:43.680 --> 00:01:46.159 He's still right in that waves Kinder. People knew who 28 00:01:46.159 --> 00:01:47.640 he was. He was a big name at the time, 29 00:01:47.719 --> 00:01:50.159 right in twenty ten. This is how you used him. 30 00:01:50.719 --> 00:01:52.840 By the way, have we announced what we're talking about? 31 00:01:52.959 --> 00:01:55.480 Oh? Yeah, So the title is a lie. It's called 32 00:01:55.519 --> 00:01:58.439 the Greatest Story Ever doed a play on the greatest 33 00:01:58.439 --> 00:02:02.920 story ever told? Yeah, saytually the Simpsons go to Jerusalem. 34 00:02:02.959 --> 00:02:06.719 Why we don't know that? We do know this. This 35 00:02:06.799 --> 00:02:08.960 is how stupid the fucking story is, right, this is 36 00:02:08.960 --> 00:02:12.639 how ridiculous it is. So Flanders is annoyed again by 37 00:02:12.680 --> 00:02:15.240 something Homer does. He's having a Bible studies group, and 38 00:02:15.280 --> 00:02:16.919 then they go, We're going to Israel. Do you want 39 00:02:16.919 --> 00:02:18.520 to come with us? And I'm gonna take you down. 40 00:02:18.560 --> 00:02:20.520 I'm going to help you find the find the light, 41 00:02:20.680 --> 00:02:24.039 become a better person. And Marj's like, you're gonna do 42 00:02:24.080 --> 00:02:26.199 all that, my homie, Well, we can't, we can't make 43 00:02:26.199 --> 00:02:27.639 you pay for it. We're all going to come and 44 00:02:27.680 --> 00:02:30.599 we're gonna pay for it. I'm like, what is this? 45 00:02:31.560 --> 00:02:34.599 Why would she think that that's going to help Homer? 46 00:02:34.960 --> 00:02:37.120 B Why we shed then go, We're gonna pay for it. 47 00:02:37.159 --> 00:02:40.919 See why the kid's going The Simpsons are going to Israel. 48 00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:46.199 That's why which this episode sucks me saying this in 49 00:02:46.240 --> 00:02:49.039 twenty twenty six. It feels odd to say that because 50 00:02:49.080 --> 00:02:51.639 we've had so many episodes with like the Simptoms are 51 00:02:51.680 --> 00:02:54.599 going to England, the Simpsons are going to Ireland, the 52 00:02:54.639 --> 00:02:57.840 Simptons are going to Australia, the Simpsons are going to Israel. 53 00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:01.560 Foist the entire time. I'm going to do that voice 54 00:03:01.599 --> 00:03:02.120 the whole time. 55 00:03:02.199 --> 00:03:04.680 Now, First of all, this is a question I wanted 56 00:03:04.680 --> 00:03:06.840 to say at the very very beginning because I did 57 00:03:06.879 --> 00:03:07.520 a bit of research. 58 00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:09.560 But which I mean? I visited the Wikipedia. 59 00:03:09.080 --> 00:03:12.120 Page for this episode. The writer of this episode was 60 00:03:12.120 --> 00:03:14.639 a local price, wasn't it. I know it's Kevin Current, 61 00:03:14.719 --> 00:03:18.639 Kevin's Longer with Us? Yes, Kevin Current is the next episode. Yes, 62 00:03:19.039 --> 00:03:22.080 was nominated for what is called the Humanitess Prize. 63 00:03:22.280 --> 00:03:23.879 What is that? I didn't even look it up. Here's 64 00:03:23.879 --> 00:03:25.719 the quote. This is work that. 65 00:03:26.039 --> 00:03:30.360 Explores the human condition in a nuanced and meaningful manner. 66 00:03:30.919 --> 00:03:34.800 Let me ask you, Dando does it? Where was the nuance? 67 00:03:37.360 --> 00:03:38.199 Where was the meaning? 68 00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:42.159 So Homer then is an obnoxious jerk the entire time. 69 00:03:42.439 --> 00:03:44.759 Flanders throws in the town and concedes, I can't fix 70 00:03:44.840 --> 00:03:48.759 this guy. He's beyond redemption. Yes, goes to see a movie, 71 00:03:48.800 --> 00:03:51.840 goes to see Transformers, go to see the Reformist. Homer 72 00:03:51.919 --> 00:03:54.919 goes to look for Flanders goes out into the desert 73 00:03:54.919 --> 00:03:58.280 on a I think it was something desert horse. We 74 00:03:58.280 --> 00:04:01.520 call it desert horse anyway, desert car and it gets lost, 75 00:04:01.520 --> 00:04:03.680 has like an epiphany, thinks he's now the Messiah. And 76 00:04:03.719 --> 00:04:05.840 then they explain that apparently this is a condition to 77 00:04:05.879 --> 00:04:09.719 people who'll suffer from when they go to Jerusalem. Jerusalem. 78 00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:13.039 Now, in your research, did you find is this actually 79 00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:13.800 a thing that happened. 80 00:04:13.800 --> 00:04:15.400 I refuse to believe this is an actual thing. I 81 00:04:15.400 --> 00:04:16.920 don't think people go then and think they come out 82 00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:18.639 thinking their guide or that's the case. 83 00:04:18.759 --> 00:04:21.360 No, people may go and have and have like some 84 00:04:21.439 --> 00:04:25.160 kind of conversion or epiphany. It's like, wow, all this 85 00:04:25.160 --> 00:04:26.759 stuff that I read about in the Bible, Well, that's 86 00:04:26.759 --> 00:04:30.240 an actual place that's pretty wild. Yeah, but I don't 87 00:04:30.279 --> 00:04:33.199 think Jerusalem syndrome is actually a thing. 88 00:04:33.199 --> 00:04:36.279 And hope it becomes a messiah and people buy into it. 89 00:04:36.360 --> 00:04:40.759 He's like, you're now going to be like he creed 90 00:04:40.800 --> 00:04:44.480 you or something something like that. I will say, however, yeah, I. 91 00:04:44.399 --> 00:04:47.199 Will occasionally break out the green highlight to go, hey, 92 00:04:47.279 --> 00:04:50.360 favorite bits of this episode. I only have one instance 93 00:04:50.360 --> 00:04:52.160 where I broke out the green highlight. Don't spoil it 94 00:04:52.399 --> 00:04:56.199 the favorite, but it does involve that particular sequet. 95 00:04:56.240 --> 00:04:57.879 Okay, we'll all go to tease for the favorite moments, 96 00:04:58.199 --> 00:05:01.800 so stick around. But this is the kind of episode 97 00:05:01.800 --> 00:05:04.600 for me. I always say, there's people out there that 98 00:05:04.639 --> 00:05:06.480 just hate the Simpsons for the sake of hate the Simpsons. 99 00:05:06.519 --> 00:05:07.920 It's not the way it used to be. Shape your 100 00:05:07.959 --> 00:05:10.120 fist that cloud, right, But these are the kind of 101 00:05:10.120 --> 00:05:12.040 episodes where you kind of get justified because if you 102 00:05:12.120 --> 00:05:14.040 just tuned into the Simpsons after ten years and this 103 00:05:14.120 --> 00:05:16.240 was what you saw, you would go, I'm not watching 104 00:05:16.279 --> 00:05:20.319 the Simpsons ever. Again, that is highly correct. Honestly, as 105 00:05:20.319 --> 00:05:21.879 a fan, if I tuned in after a couple of 106 00:05:21.920 --> 00:05:23.560 years and this was the one that I watched, I 107 00:05:23.600 --> 00:05:26.839 would go this show has lost it? Yeah, lost it? 108 00:05:27.480 --> 00:05:30.319 Did you laugh once? I maybe got a couple of chuckles, 109 00:05:30.800 --> 00:05:35.319 But I just thought this one was so nothing. It 110 00:05:35.399 --> 00:05:36.759 was just I'm watching. I got to the end and 111 00:05:36.800 --> 00:05:38.879 I went, what was the point? Now? The tour guy 112 00:05:39.000 --> 00:05:43.040 was played by Sasha, right, were these jokes funny if 113 00:05:43.040 --> 00:05:45.399 you're Jewish? Or was it just like you have to 114 00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:47.439 be Jewish to get the jokes in this episode? Because 115 00:05:47.480 --> 00:05:51.480 it was completely lost on me. I was watching this going, 116 00:05:51.560 --> 00:05:55.319 he's just being mean, He's just speaking really fast, coming 117 00:05:55.399 --> 00:05:56.560 understand him half the time. 118 00:05:56.800 --> 00:05:59.800 Let's we're gonna we're have to walk very carefully through 119 00:05:59.800 --> 00:06:01.279 a lot of these things, because I mean, I think 120 00:06:01.279 --> 00:06:04.959 we're trafficking in sort of like cultural and I guess 121 00:06:05.040 --> 00:06:08.360 racial stereotized to some degree. I may be incorrected, but 122 00:06:08.399 --> 00:06:12.279 I want there may be a distinction between, say, what 123 00:06:12.399 --> 00:06:16.600 you traditionally regard as the Jewish identity and the Israeli identity. 124 00:06:17.399 --> 00:06:18.120 How do I frame it? 125 00:06:18.319 --> 00:06:22.279 Maybe all Israelis are Jewish, but not all Jewish Israeli 126 00:06:23.279 --> 00:06:26.839 from what I understand, and again I'm trying not to 127 00:06:26.839 --> 00:06:29.639 offend anyone when I say this. I'm just going by 128 00:06:29.639 --> 00:06:31.600 what I've heard and what I can sort of set 129 00:06:31.639 --> 00:06:35.680 me understand is that the Israeli character can be viewed 130 00:06:35.839 --> 00:06:42.000 as a very upfront and to some degree confrontational, but 131 00:06:42.000 --> 00:06:44.319 you want to be less than charitable. You could say 132 00:06:44.399 --> 00:06:47.000 arrogant and abrasive, and maybe that's a play on that, 133 00:06:47.079 --> 00:06:50.079 and it's Yeah, the comic character was well comic effect, 134 00:06:50.319 --> 00:06:52.399 pushing it to ludicrous extreme. 135 00:06:53.000 --> 00:06:54.600 I'm watching it. Having said that, none of just felt 136 00:06:54.600 --> 00:06:57.240 scripted off, felt like, hey, Sasha just just just be 137 00:06:57.319 --> 00:06:59.959 angry at the microphone for twenty minutes sometimes where we 138 00:07:00.160 --> 00:07:03.240 talking for like thirty seconds straight and the people around 139 00:07:03.279 --> 00:07:04.879 him were just sort of rolling their eyes, and I'm going, yeah, 140 00:07:04.879 --> 00:07:08.079 I feel you, Yeah, what is this? Yeah, Now, I've 141 00:07:08.120 --> 00:07:11.079 read some reviews where they were saying, oh, yeah, I've 142 00:07:11.079 --> 00:07:13.519 had tour guides like this who are and not necessarily 143 00:07:13.519 --> 00:07:16.160 Israeli ones. Just you know, you'll go to a different 144 00:07:16.160 --> 00:07:18.319 country and you'll go on a cultural tour or whatever, 145 00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:20.720 and the tour guide will be talking a mile a 146 00:07:20.720 --> 00:07:23.759 minute and wanting to do their thing as opposed to 147 00:07:24.959 --> 00:07:28.439 almost like doing a tight five, as opposed to imparting information. 148 00:07:29.399 --> 00:07:32.480 But having said that, yeah, I mean I didn't find 149 00:07:32.480 --> 00:07:34.639 it all that human. I didn't really know anything about 150 00:07:34.639 --> 00:07:37.240 this episode going in and all throughout. When you've got 151 00:07:37.240 --> 00:07:41.480 the tour guide, I was like, who is this? You know? 152 00:07:41.800 --> 00:07:43.680 And props to Sasha Baron Cohnor. I think he's a 153 00:07:43.759 --> 00:07:46.319 very talented person. He clearly immersed himself in this character 154 00:07:46.399 --> 00:07:47.879 and up that I was like, oh, he is Jewish, 155 00:07:47.879 --> 00:07:49.720 which ye yeah, well yeah, that is a very big 156 00:07:49.759 --> 00:07:52.120 part of his I guess identity. I mean he's he's 157 00:07:52.199 --> 00:07:53.600 very pro. 158 00:07:53.519 --> 00:07:56.240 Jude days and we'll pro jew What he did with 159 00:07:56.279 --> 00:07:58.600 this character was like, I didn't know that was Sasha 160 00:07:58.639 --> 00:08:00.279 Baron Cohen. At the end, I kind of went, oh, 161 00:08:00.319 --> 00:08:03.000 that's Sasha Barron going I don't feel bad for him. 162 00:08:03.000 --> 00:08:06.319 There was so one note it was yeah. 163 00:08:05.879 --> 00:08:08.120 Now, whether that's the joke, I don't know. 164 00:08:08.680 --> 00:08:12.000 I just watched this, going this guy here. You could 165 00:08:12.000 --> 00:08:14.839 have done such a biggest, more entertaining story keeping him 166 00:08:14.839 --> 00:08:17.800 in Springfield, tying in Krusty in some way, Krusty being 167 00:08:17.879 --> 00:08:20.839 Jewish maybe could be a cousin of Krusty's a long 168 00:08:20.839 --> 00:08:24.360 lost brother, you know, anyone did the whole rival show 169 00:08:24.399 --> 00:08:27.079 thing again, but tying a story with Krusty. 170 00:08:27.959 --> 00:08:31.319 I just think having him there and then having him 171 00:08:31.360 --> 00:08:35.080 go where he goes at the airport is like, oh boy, yeah, 172 00:08:35.120 --> 00:08:39.080 I mean there's some really I'm know, the bad taste jokes. 173 00:08:39.080 --> 00:08:41.879 At the time, they're worst taste jokes now you know what. 174 00:08:41.919 --> 00:08:42.559 It felt like. 175 00:08:42.559 --> 00:08:44.360 It's almost like, I mean, this is the kind of 176 00:08:44.360 --> 00:08:47.039 shit that you would sort of edit out start raping 177 00:08:47.120 --> 00:08:47.600 dad style. 178 00:08:47.679 --> 00:08:50.960 Yeah. Well. The thing is, though, so Krusty is the 179 00:08:51.360 --> 00:08:54.279 big Jewish character of the show, right, and it feels 180 00:08:54.320 --> 00:08:56.279 like that scene with him at the airport felt like, well, 181 00:08:56.320 --> 00:08:58.279 we need to get Crusty in there somewhere because he's 182 00:08:58.320 --> 00:09:00.799 the Jewish character. So we'll have him a here one 183 00:09:00.840 --> 00:09:02.960 and done. I think he might appear once throughout the episode, 184 00:09:03.000 --> 00:09:06.440 but it's like it's pointless, Yeah, he has no. So 185 00:09:06.559 --> 00:09:10.480 many moments in this episode have no bearing on the story. 186 00:09:10.799 --> 00:09:12.720 It's like, for example, who was the other guest star 187 00:09:12.840 --> 00:09:18.559 the voice of the young girl, Oh Yaley'll. 188 00:09:17.320 --> 00:09:20.919 No, yeah, yeah, yes, who I believe is a singer songwriter? 189 00:09:21.080 --> 00:09:25.639 Yes, okay, so she voices the security It turns out 190 00:09:25.639 --> 00:09:29.000 to be off the tour tour guide. Yeah. So her 191 00:09:29.039 --> 00:09:31.240 point was she chases Bart for like a chase and 192 00:09:31.240 --> 00:09:34.679 it goes forever and then she they have like a 193 00:09:35.039 --> 00:09:36.559 and then she has her own version of karate and 194 00:09:36.600 --> 00:09:38.840 they beat she beats him up, and that's it. Yeah. 195 00:09:38.879 --> 00:09:42.360 The Israeli marshal out Kraub Macgardens apparently kind of bad us. 196 00:09:42.360 --> 00:09:45.200 I wouldn't I'd like to learn it. Actually, yeah, and 197 00:09:45.559 --> 00:09:48.039 it's not fucking around and. 198 00:09:47.879 --> 00:09:49.840 But but what was the point. It didn't have any 199 00:09:49.840 --> 00:09:52.360 bearing on this, There was no the story is that 200 00:09:52.679 --> 00:09:54.320 the Home of Flanders story. But by the time they 201 00:09:54.360 --> 00:09:56.840 get to Israel, it's just the Simpsons are going to 202 00:09:56.840 --> 00:09:58.559 this Lamark, The Simpsons are going to that Lambart, The 203 00:09:58.559 --> 00:09:59.799 Simpsons are going here. Yeah. 204 00:09:59.799 --> 00:10:03.480 Look, there are some episodes where you know they've got 205 00:10:03.480 --> 00:10:06.440 the initial idea and it's like, I don't mind that, 206 00:10:06.919 --> 00:10:08.720 you can actually do some interesting stuff with that. And 207 00:10:08.759 --> 00:10:10.559 that's the issue. That's the episode we're going to be 208 00:10:10.559 --> 00:10:13.879 talking about next. I think that American History Excellent, which 209 00:10:13.960 --> 00:10:16.159 is our next episode, I think has got a really 210 00:10:16.240 --> 00:10:18.159 sturdy foundational idea. 211 00:10:19.080 --> 00:10:21.840 This not so much. Yeah, I completely agree. When we 212 00:10:21.879 --> 00:10:23.799 get to the episode next week, I completely agree. There 213 00:10:23.840 --> 00:10:26.159 was a lot there that could have been fixed. This 214 00:10:26.200 --> 00:10:27.600 one here is this is folding. 215 00:10:29.279 --> 00:10:32.120 This is the planners not worth saving, no. 216 00:10:33.960 --> 00:10:34.600 Worth watching. 217 00:10:34.679 --> 00:10:38.399 Well yeah, and also it's everyone comes off badly in. 218 00:10:38.360 --> 00:10:41.360 This, especially Homer. I'm much in this is terrible. But 219 00:10:41.399 --> 00:10:44.840 I'm like, okay, so this Kevin rest in peace, buddy. 220 00:10:44.879 --> 00:10:48.159 But you've regressed the character again because the character felt 221 00:10:48.200 --> 00:10:51.879 has been better in recent recent episodes. Yeah, he's just 222 00:10:51.919 --> 00:10:56.639 gone back to moronic, horrible cruel but knowing he is 223 00:10:56.679 --> 00:10:59.960 too and not caring. I'm just I'm an American tourist. 224 00:11:00.039 --> 00:11:04.480 Time do this and it's like, no, no, I have 225 00:11:04.519 --> 00:11:08.440 a little make him more pushy Americans as it goes along, 226 00:11:08.919 --> 00:11:12.039 when he's confronted with a foreign culture, make him go, no, 227 00:11:12.240 --> 00:11:13.360 everything's better in America. 228 00:11:13.559 --> 00:11:15.200 Don't have him just step off the plane in a 229 00:11:15.279 --> 00:11:16.840 USA hat, just you know. 230 00:11:17.360 --> 00:11:19.200 Just in case he didn't forget he was an American tourist. 231 00:11:19.240 --> 00:11:21.799 He's wearing USA everything, indeed, but every I mean, but 232 00:11:21.960 --> 00:11:25.840 Ned as well. I mean, I think we've had episodes 233 00:11:25.879 --> 00:11:27.600 in the past or experiences in the past with Ned 234 00:11:27.600 --> 00:11:29.799 where he's kind of like, I want to sort of 235 00:11:30.080 --> 00:11:32.120 bring people around in my way of thinking. But he's 236 00:11:32.159 --> 00:11:34.360 never been all that sort of pushy I'm taking you 237 00:11:34.399 --> 00:11:36.159 to Israel this you this time. 238 00:11:36.200 --> 00:11:38.960 I mean, he usually sort of tries to lead by example. 239 00:11:39.000 --> 00:11:40.559 I suppose it was love to join this one here. 240 00:11:40.600 --> 00:11:42.159 He gave him the challenge of fixing him. 241 00:11:42.159 --> 00:11:44.840 But still, I guess but Ned just came across as 242 00:11:44.960 --> 00:11:50.000 really pushing. It's kind of like, dude. 243 00:11:48.759 --> 00:11:52.559 He's up. I've developed this theory this week. I'm trying 244 00:11:52.559 --> 00:11:54.399 to work out like people kept saying. I got asked 245 00:11:54.399 --> 00:11:56.279 a lot this week by friends, went to a couple 246 00:11:56.320 --> 00:11:59.240 of parties. When you're Consimpsons stopped being good and I 247 00:11:59.279 --> 00:12:02.639 thought about enough, what about it? This episode? I think 248 00:12:02.759 --> 00:12:07.159 it is when Homer the character realized he was an asshole. 249 00:12:07.639 --> 00:12:10.279 He was an asshole in the Golden Era at times, 250 00:12:10.679 --> 00:12:12.480 but he was oblivious to it, and then he got 251 00:12:12.519 --> 00:12:14.360 called out for it and went, you know what, I'm sorry, 252 00:12:14.879 --> 00:12:17.240 let me fix this. There came a point where the 253 00:12:17.240 --> 00:12:21.840 Homer character was a prick to everybody, deliberately didn't care. 254 00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:24.600 They would call him out for it and he go, shut up, mate, 255 00:12:24.639 --> 00:12:28.279 So what I'm Homer Simpson. That's when the show started. 256 00:12:28.480 --> 00:12:31.799 That's when the vibe of the show changed. When your 257 00:12:31.840 --> 00:12:36.000 main character was horrible knowingly and didn't care, didn't want 258 00:12:36.039 --> 00:12:38.960 to fix things. And then sometimes they would go They'll 259 00:12:39.000 --> 00:12:40.679 try and have an ending where he's like, I really 260 00:12:40.720 --> 00:12:42.480 need to fix something, but you've been so horrible for 261 00:12:42.480 --> 00:12:45.720 so long deliberately that there's no redemption here, very much 262 00:12:45.759 --> 00:12:49.240 the case. Yeah, just this episode here, I just left going, 263 00:12:49.320 --> 00:12:52.120 this is everything that people say they don't like the 264 00:12:52.120 --> 00:12:54.759 sims anymore. This is case in point, this is why 265 00:12:54.759 --> 00:12:56.039 you would stop watching the Simpsons. 266 00:12:56.200 --> 00:13:01.320 Yeah, looks poorly deployed, Yester oh Man. 267 00:13:02.799 --> 00:13:05.720 And honestly one of my wasn't wasn't that good? Not 268 00:13:05.799 --> 00:13:06.200 that good? 269 00:13:06.279 --> 00:13:11.440 One of my pet peeves jokes that explain themselves. And yeah, 270 00:13:11.840 --> 00:13:16.240 as I said, a found a faulty foundation for a story. Yeah, 271 00:13:16.399 --> 00:13:17.879 no good, no good, no Blino. 272 00:13:18.000 --> 00:13:20.799 And then by the end of it, because the people 273 00:13:20.840 --> 00:13:22.399 buy into which you get into your favorite moments that 274 00:13:22.440 --> 00:13:25.360 people buy into Homer's new philosophy on well peace and 275 00:13:25.399 --> 00:13:29.039 whatnot and with religion, Flantnus now thinks I go through 276 00:13:29.039 --> 00:13:30.799 to him, right like, I'm going, no, you didn't, And 277 00:13:30.840 --> 00:13:32.639 then he gets into Planet Homes like you got through 278 00:13:32.639 --> 00:13:34.759 to me. I'm like, wait a minute, no you didn't, 279 00:13:34.759 --> 00:13:36.399 because we know the next episode you're going to go 280 00:13:36.399 --> 00:13:38.039 back to being a pricta Flanners again. Exactly. 281 00:13:38.240 --> 00:13:39.639 You can't be putting a band aid on at the 282 00:13:39.759 --> 00:13:43.159 very end and thinking that you've caused you know, you've 283 00:13:43.639 --> 00:13:44.960 saved an amputated leg. 284 00:13:45.519 --> 00:13:47.600 I just didn't like this episode. Bottom of the barrel. 285 00:13:47.679 --> 00:13:50.799 This is bottom. This is top five worst episodes for me. 286 00:13:51.039 --> 00:13:53.919 It ain't great, it's it's bad. Yeah, it's no good 287 00:13:53.919 --> 00:13:54.879 at all. It's horrible. 288 00:13:55.039 --> 00:13:58.360 By the way, this episode apparently received mixed to positive reviews. 289 00:13:58.399 --> 00:14:01.960 I refuse to believe that, yes, which only confirms the 290 00:14:02.000 --> 00:14:08.440 rumor the Jews do run the media. God, I'm true, 291 00:14:08.559 --> 00:14:12.360 don't mean it. My favorite, all right, favorite moments in 292 00:14:12.360 --> 00:14:13.240 the episode is the Davis. 293 00:14:13.240 --> 00:14:15.240 I only have one, and it's when Homer does, in 294 00:14:15.240 --> 00:14:18.399 fact trying to bring peace to the Middle East by 295 00:14:18.519 --> 00:14:20.519 saying that not all of us eat pork, not all 296 00:14:20.559 --> 00:14:22.559 of us eat sheellfish, but all of us love chicken. 297 00:14:22.559 --> 00:14:24.600 It's like, that's actually not a bad. 298 00:14:26.639 --> 00:14:30.639 Yeah, and I think the the Arabic guy says, yeah, 299 00:14:30.639 --> 00:14:33.039 it's good Google with kageen and yeah, yeah, boil it. 300 00:14:33.039 --> 00:14:35.759 And but so does anyone not like chicken? You know 301 00:14:35.799 --> 00:14:37.720 what it is because we're raised to eat chicken nuggets. 302 00:14:40.559 --> 00:14:42.759 The staple kids mill at a pub nuggets and chips. 303 00:14:42.799 --> 00:14:45.320 Oh yeah, very much so. Over the last couple of decades, 304 00:14:45.600 --> 00:14:47.440 I've just I've just sort of fallen on the point 305 00:14:47.440 --> 00:14:49.240 of now of what the kids are doing something. It's 306 00:14:49.279 --> 00:14:53.159 like nuggets and chips, Like what's how high? Sir? 307 00:14:54.759 --> 00:14:57.600 Well, if you were watching on YouTube a little earlier, 308 00:14:58.679 --> 00:15:00.519 by means go back and do something's I think stopping 309 00:15:00.559 --> 00:15:03.320 it but you may see over Dando's shoulder the World's 310 00:15:03.360 --> 00:15:07.000 Best Dad picture, drawn by Elliott. 311 00:15:07.000 --> 00:15:12.120 Tell you what is my favorite food? K Well, my 312 00:15:12.159 --> 00:15:16.960 dad is always my dad always says funny things my dad. 313 00:15:16.759 --> 00:15:19.600 My favorite thing about Dad is he's cheeky. My dad 314 00:15:19.679 --> 00:15:21.919 is thirty seven. His favorite color is blue. That's correct. 315 00:15:22.000 --> 00:15:24.519 That is so good at footy, and dad makes the 316 00:15:24.559 --> 00:15:28.720 best I think it says snitzles. Okay, he's right about 317 00:15:28.759 --> 00:15:32.559 most of those things. But yeah, certainly. But yeah, everybody 318 00:15:32.600 --> 00:15:34.919 loves chicken. Hey, guess what that was my favorite moment 319 00:15:35.200 --> 00:15:37.399 from this episode? Read what my favorite moment was? Guy 320 00:15:40.000 --> 00:15:47.440 none full stop none bullstop cooked and I went, I'm 321 00:15:47.480 --> 00:15:49.279 sure I chuckled, But you know what, I'll get to 322 00:15:49.320 --> 00:15:50.559 those when we do have full run through, because I 323 00:15:50.559 --> 00:15:52.600 couldn't be bother going back and trying to find them. Yeah, 324 00:15:53.080 --> 00:15:55.720 not normally those bits when I'm doing the the review 325 00:15:55.759 --> 00:15:57.720 and taking notes where I go, oh, that's a good one. 326 00:15:57.720 --> 00:15:59.519 I'll put that in my favorite moments. Nothing. 327 00:15:59.600 --> 00:16:02.600 I couldn't find any Everything I've written down here is like, 328 00:16:02.639 --> 00:16:08.120 either this might have aged badly, oh boy, but kind 329 00:16:08.120 --> 00:16:11.320 of a jerk too. There is my favorite note. They're 330 00:16:11.320 --> 00:16:11.960 a point to this. 331 00:16:13.480 --> 00:16:18.399 In this accent and yeah, this is no good. But 332 00:16:18.440 --> 00:16:21.679 here's the thing. I couldn't tell if this episode was 333 00:16:22.480 --> 00:16:27.159 pro Jewish or anti Submittic. That's the problem, isn't it. 334 00:16:27.159 --> 00:16:30.120 It's so weird. Yeah, and not weird in a good way. No, 335 00:16:30.679 --> 00:16:33.759 it's highlighting all the stereotypes of the culture, but really 336 00:16:33.759 --> 00:16:36.039 painting in a negative light. Yeah. 337 00:16:36.200 --> 00:16:38.840 Yeah, okay, well we've done our favorite moments. 338 00:16:38.919 --> 00:16:41.120 That's that. Yeah. I will say the one bit that 339 00:16:41.159 --> 00:16:43.639 I liked about this one was at the start because 340 00:16:43.639 --> 00:16:46.440 I felt the most at least somewhat normal Simpsons episode 341 00:16:46.480 --> 00:16:48.440 where Homa was playing with the kids on the slipping 342 00:16:48.480 --> 00:16:50.639 side and stuff like that. There's a couple of sort 343 00:16:50.679 --> 00:16:54.080 of funny zingers there because I always like it when 344 00:16:54.080 --> 00:16:56.759 I see Homo somewhat being a good dad. But even still, 345 00:16:56.799 --> 00:16:58.600 it was being a jerk at the same time, and 346 00:16:58.639 --> 00:17:01.639 I was just like, Ah's he's done a dumb down 347 00:17:01.720 --> 00:17:06.240 jerky where he rips out the bit of the lawn lawn. 348 00:17:06.359 --> 00:17:08.880 Yeah, and then of tribal jungle dancers. 349 00:17:09.960 --> 00:17:11.279 What is going on here? 350 00:17:11.400 --> 00:17:13.680 Yeah, that's very much what is going. 351 00:17:15.119 --> 00:17:19.440 Next question you there eating the paste trivia time. My 352 00:17:19.480 --> 00:17:21.039 first question for you is what is the name of 353 00:17:21.039 --> 00:17:26.119 the little girl? Oh, it's a really well, it's very 354 00:17:26.200 --> 00:17:31.759 Israeli name. Is it dieta it? Do I know a 355 00:17:31.839 --> 00:17:32.640 door ring once? 356 00:17:33.440 --> 00:17:37.599 I have not known anyone by that name, but asked 357 00:17:37.599 --> 00:17:40.079 the end of that chapter, and now you know the 358 00:17:40.200 --> 00:17:45.000 rest story. My first question is Ned's clock has a 359 00:17:45.079 --> 00:17:45.559 saying on it? 360 00:17:45.640 --> 00:17:48.839 What is that? Which? Where was the clock in the kitchen?
