Speaker 1: So, Lisa, how do you like shedding your bathroom with
Speaker 1: two brothers?
Speaker 2: Two brothers? Bart? Who is this kid? Be cool? Be cool?
Speaker 2: He's an orphan, you know, just like Annie, except he's
Speaker 2: a dude and he hates tomorrow. I hate it so much.
Speaker 3: Four finger Discount, dude.
Speaker 4: Welcome to four finger Discount. Where this week Bart gets
Speaker 4: a brother. It's oh brother Where Bart now.
Speaker 1: And Dana and I am guy neither was half brothers.
Speaker 4: No. I actually thought about this when I was watching
Speaker 4: this and I'm writing my notes, and I went, I
Speaker 4: wonder if I ever felt the way that Bart feels.
Speaker 4: And I don't think I ever wished I had a brother.
Speaker 4: I don't think that thought ever came across. There were
Speaker 4: times where I kind of wish I had someone to
Speaker 4: kick it footy with. Maybe, But I guess maybe because
Speaker 4: my sister Stacy Chatt to Stacy was always willing too
Speaker 4: the sort of great and kick the already and do
Speaker 4: things like that. I never I never sort of missed that,
Speaker 4: But that brotherly connection, I guess I kind of did.
Speaker 4: It would have been nice. I guess I have that
Speaker 4: brotherly connection. What about you? You had his four sisters.
Speaker 1: I had four sisters. Yeah, and being the youngest of
Speaker 1: the Charlie correct. Yeah, yeah, so, I mean I know
Speaker 1: it was it was. It was a great way to
Speaker 1: grow up.
Speaker 4: I love my sisters very very much, and they're also
Speaker 4: a lot older than.
Speaker 1: They were, that's true. But I also, yeah, I had
Speaker 1: a lot of sort of time to myself.
Speaker 4: So we're almost like an early child because I was
Speaker 4: so much older. I was just some degreels. What's the
Speaker 4: age gept between you and yet the youngest sister as
Speaker 4: eight years so by the time she was tenner, you
Speaker 4: were still like seven eight, So you was like an
Speaker 4: early child.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean she didn't want anything to
Speaker 1: do with a little brad like me. Yeah. Did I
Speaker 1: find myself wishing, Oh I wish I had a brother
Speaker 1: or even wish they had a sibling close marriage. No,
Speaker 1: not really. I was pretty happy with my own company
Speaker 1: and was from a young age. And you know, I
Speaker 1: formed good male friendships when I was young, and they
Speaker 1: were essentially like my brothers. So JP, yeah, JP, Well, JP,
Speaker 1: who was thinking is the main one? I'm thinking It
Speaker 1: was my best friend when I was growing up and
Speaker 1: still a very very good mate. We had a very
Speaker 1: nice catch up the other night steak and beers good stuff.
Speaker 1: But he doesn't have any sisters. He has two brothers,
Speaker 1: and I want to say I always envied their relationship.
Speaker 1: I thought that's a nice relation about because they're very close.
Speaker 1: You can tell they're good friends as well as brothers.
Speaker 4: So sometimes it comescross my mind. I go, well, nickol
Speaker 4: and I have produced this, this prodigy athlete and Aliot,
Speaker 4: maybe you try and produce a couple more, make more money,
Speaker 4: give them, give about the new sal Wards, get.
Speaker 1: A little manning dynastic shout out to this episode.
Speaker 4: But I just thought about when I was watching this going,
Speaker 4: I wonder if I ever felt this way. I just
Speaker 4: I don't think I did. There probably are people out
Speaker 4: there who wish they did have a brother, or sisters
Speaker 4: who wish I had a sister, But for me, no,
Speaker 4: There's a movie.
Speaker 1: That came out long and sorry, sorry to sort of
Speaker 1: bring the mood down, but The Iron Claw. Did you
Speaker 1: want to that one about the rest of Yeah, Eric's yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: but I mean it's got Really it's very depressing. These
Speaker 1: brothers who are all sort of wrestlers or goaded into
Speaker 1: wrestling by their father.
Speaker 4: And there was a ship industry.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and they had a really really bad run.
Speaker 1: But it's just a sad bit at the end not
Speaker 1: to sort of spoil anything, but you know, with but
Speaker 1: here's the ending does But there's a lot of the
Speaker 1: memories that I used to be a brother and he's
Speaker 1: got his cou sons and saying we'll be your brother's dad,
Speaker 1: and I'll go like, goddamn man, Yeah mine claw good movie.
Speaker 1: Depressing as fuck, But no, I never really sort of
Speaker 1: had this itchual is urged, like, oh yeah, I never
Speaker 1: had this ittual urge to replace my mum's control pills
Speaker 1: with with tik taks but or tactics.
Speaker 4: Yes, Bart does want a brother.
Speaker 1: He does, he does. Yeah, I mean I found this interesting.
Speaker 1: Didn't really like this episode, nor did I in all
Speaker 1: on see, And it's one of those ones.
Speaker 4: I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: I'm feeling like a very Monday morning quarterback kind of
Speaker 1: guy again, Eli Manning or Peyton Manning. Do you think
Speaker 1: you can fix it? I feel like I could probably
Speaker 1: fix I think we could fix this.
Speaker 4: Yeah, because there's a I've got here, There's a story
Speaker 4: are you here that I just don't a genuine heartfelt story.
Speaker 4: I just don't think they tapped into at all.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, this was written by a man, Matt Salmon as well.
Speaker 1: Correct.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I found it interesting that one of the notes I've
Speaker 1: written here is this the first time it feels like
Speaker 1: the first time to me at least, that we've seen
Speaker 1: real sisterhood between Lisa and Naggy.
Speaker 4: Not the first time, but it's the first time in
Speaker 4: a while. Yeah. And I know that Naggie's a baby.
Speaker 4: There's so much you can do with babies.
Speaker 1: But they're like, oh, okay, yeah, I mean, yeah, they've
Speaker 1: got that sisterly bond and yeah, they can sort of communicate.
Speaker 4: On that level the way women do. I don't understand it.
Speaker 1: But yeah, for Bart to then go, oh, yeah, there's
Speaker 1: no one in the in my family that I can
Speaker 1: sort of relate to and bond with on.
Speaker 4: That level, Yeah, I thought, oh, that's something you can
Speaker 4: work with. Absolutely.
Speaker 1: Now, how you resolve that or how you explore that
Speaker 1: and then how you resolved it, I'm not one hundred
Speaker 1: percent sure, but it felt like they didn't really do
Speaker 1: a whole lot with it here.
Speaker 4: I just think that him going to an orphanage and
Speaker 4: orphan just escaping the orphanage and moving in with them.
Speaker 4: It's just felt so flim. Yeah. I just thought, Oh,
Speaker 4: this kid's now living with them and they don't care
Speaker 4: about this. This kid's now living with them. Home was like, hey, Charlie,
Speaker 4: you joined the family.
Speaker 1: I'm like, what, well, that's I mean, I think Bart's
Speaker 1: were pulling a bit of a swifty by saying, oh,
Speaker 1: I mean they never he never says he's my new
Speaker 1: brother or anything like that. He's like, here's Charlie, my
Speaker 1: new friend. You're going to be seeing a lot of him.
Speaker 1: So it's yeah, I'm implied that going to be sort
Speaker 1: of sleeping under Bart's bed and then all that kind
Speaker 1: of business. But I don't know, it just felt like
Speaker 1: Bart wanting a brother. Yeah, it felt like something you
Speaker 1: could explore in a in an interesting way.
Speaker 4: And talking about how we discussing earlier you didn't have
Speaker 4: a brother, but you found friends who became your brothers.
Speaker 4: I feel like, for me, I'm watching this going the
Speaker 4: story he should have been that Millhouse is the brother
Speaker 4: that Bart never careered but wanted. Yeah, so there was
Speaker 4: an element of there's a scene where Millhouse points out
Speaker 4: who's this kid? And if I'm thinking, oh, okay, there's
Speaker 4: going to be a jealousy angle here. They don't tap
Speaker 4: into it all they should have been that Millhouse gets
Speaker 4: jealous of Charlie and Bartmus replaces Millhouse with Charlie and
Speaker 4: then realize, you know what your house, I've always had
Speaker 4: a brother. I've already yes, exactly, and there's you're Closing's
Speaker 4: the end. I've always had a brother. It's you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that would be a hitty rye absolutely, yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean it could be a really good heartfelt episode with
Speaker 1: a lot of comedy sort of leading up to that,
Speaker 1: with you know, sort of shenanigans between you know, Millhouse
Speaker 1: trying to sabotage Charlie and Charlie's clearly a kid who
Speaker 1: knows all the angles. You know, you see him sort
Speaker 1: of doing getting up to various midst of mischief and
Speaker 1: sort of outsmarting Millhouse at every turn. And then yeah,
Speaker 1: but yeah, the culminations but realizing oh, I always had
Speaker 1: a brother, and.
Speaker 4: Yeah it's you. That's great.
Speaker 1: That's a that's a true fixed it.
Speaker 4: We fixed it. Yeah, that is the ending. Yeah, so
Speaker 4: and that's the ending of this episode. So, but a
Speaker 4: similar thing to last week, you know how we were annoyed, Actually, no,
Speaker 4: what No. We did a review last week of Lisa
Speaker 4: ghoest Gaga, which is available on our Patreon, where we
Speaker 4: were really pissed off that Bart ruined Lisa's life essentially
Speaker 4: by revealing her to be the truth teller in this
Speaker 4: episode here so I had the same as last week.
Speaker 4: It wasn't last week reviewed that episodelast week. It's a
Speaker 4: season twenty three episode of Out on Patro As I said,
Speaker 4: but the story he of Lisa, she just comes across
Speaker 4: like such a bitch. She really does, but absolutely no reason.
Speaker 4: She's just almost like reveling in Bart's sadness, and it
Speaker 4: just didn't I feel that the characters in this just
Speaker 4: felt very mean spirited. I remember there was a scene
Speaker 4: where Bart points out Maggie. Maggie's like, no, waving to Barton,
Speaker 4: just being nice to him. He's like, ah, go way, sister,
Speaker 4: shop it around somewhere else, and it's like, why is
Speaker 4: everyone Why does anyone like each other anymore? Why they
Speaker 4: always means The comedy seems to be drawn from being
Speaker 4: mean to each other.
Speaker 1: I don't mind that line from part of the shop
Speaker 1: at Somewhere Else, And yeah, I think that would work
Speaker 1: in the context of him feeling sort of like disregarded
Speaker 1: or slided.
Speaker 4: Or something like that.
Speaker 1: Maggie's never done that to him, I know, I know,
Speaker 1: but yeah, he's acting out. But yeah, this really starts
Speaker 1: starting to feel like the way you know when people
Speaker 1: talk about the decline, when as we enter the twenties,
Speaker 1: of the sentence kind of like, oh yeah, it's getting
Speaker 1: mean spirited or it's getting not lazy, but it's sort
Speaker 1: of the tone of the humor is changing.
Speaker 4: Well, you got annoyed with Lisa a couple of episodes
Speaker 4: ago with The Loser, Well, yeah, and I mean it
Speaker 4: feels very much like that. It's like, remember when Lisa
Speaker 4: wanted the best for everybody? Well? True, yeah, I mean
Speaker 4: there's a bit of real sarcastic bitch.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a bit of this. There's a bit of
Speaker 1: the start here, and I mean, I can I'm sort
Speaker 1: of on Lisa's side here, but this all felt very
Speaker 1: sort of rerunnish and retreadish, where it's snowing and home
Speaker 1: it's talking about, oh, well, what's all this global warming stuff?
Speaker 1: Lady d It was like, wait a minute, I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: that's I'm you know, I'm living in a fantasy house
Speaker 1: on gum drop Lane La La La La La. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm the magical man from from Happy Land, just being
Speaker 1: a joke for no reason.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: But then Lisa's going, really really, that's it's like, that's
Speaker 1: a placeholder line. That's not your actual joke, that's not
Speaker 1: that's not the line of dialog, there's no line, no, no.
Speaker 1: What you put in the screw is. Lisa's reaction is
Speaker 1: something akin to really really, and then you come up
Speaker 1: and find something. Then you find out with the funny
Speaker 1: line that actually does that as opposed to her just
Speaker 1: saying really really, because really really is a line that say,
Speaker 1: I don't know Meg from Family Guys says I'm sorry
Speaker 1: to keep bringing up Family Guy, but I'm seeing the influence.
Speaker 4: More and more on the senses or.
Speaker 1: A different style of humor is infiltrating and permeating the Simpsons.
Speaker 1: And I'm not a fan.
Speaker 4: I like it. And also Lisa reacting that way makes
Speaker 4: you the viewer go, really, that's all you got? Yeah,
Speaker 4: and it leaves you feel in the same way exactly,
Speaker 4: just disappointed, like you used to be better expected more
Speaker 4: from here also to the story of Nelson where he
Speaker 4: gets Marge's birth control pills and he keeps eating but
Speaker 4: he's eating them forever going forward. Now he never runs
Speaker 4: out of him, just keeps eating them and eating them.
Speaker 1: And he's like, say, there's approximately nine tic TACs or
Speaker 1: tactics or whatever the funk they call them.
Speaker 4: But the thing is all over the funk they call them.
Speaker 4: But the thing is, get it. He's emotional because he's
Speaker 4: like a woman. Get him. Women are emotional. Get it.
Speaker 1: It's like, it's like, I must admit I have written
Speaker 1: down here yay gender stereotyping and look, I'm old school
Speaker 1: sometimes insensitive a butcher blog. At the same time, it's like,
Speaker 1: I look, I don't mind that on occasion if it
Speaker 1: can be used sort of. It was just once fine, yeah,
Speaker 1: but all throughout this episode it's like, hey, men drive
Speaker 1: like this, women drive like this. And by the end
Speaker 1: spoilers for the end of this episode, when Charlie gets
Speaker 1: adopted by a family, that's very.
Speaker 4: End of the Davis family. It's such a nothing ending.
Speaker 4: By the way, it's like, now he's been adopted by
Speaker 4: a family, he's clearly not happy, and they're just like, yeah,
Speaker 4: go see, and it's like that's the end.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's the thing Charlie is not necessarily a villain.
Speaker 1: He doesn't deserve like a come up And I'm not
Speaker 1: saying this is a come up and s or anything
Speaker 1: like that, but it does feel like a kind of
Speaker 1: ironic punishment that Charlie is not necessarily earned or deserves.
Speaker 1: But yeah, that whole thing about oh girls bigger and
Speaker 1: they just want to you know, make over things like
Speaker 1: the fuck man come And also, you know, I thinking
Speaker 1: I'm going to be saying w two WTF a bit
Speaker 1: through this episode because I mean, the whole bro Land thing,
Speaker 1: the whole brillant it went forever. Yeah, not necessarily great.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know, don't I'm loath to diss
Speaker 1: the Smothers brothers because apparently they've kind of pivotal onto
Speaker 1: American comedy at a certain time.
Speaker 4: This is not that time that went on for a
Speaker 4: long time. Yeah, and none of it was funny, no, no.
Speaker 4: But we always talk.
Speaker 1: About how the Simpsons will sort of like reference other
Speaker 1: things or at least, you know, pay tribute to its
Speaker 1: comedy ancestors and things like that.
Speaker 4: But I think dedicated thirty seconds to them, yeah.
Speaker 1: Pretty much, because I yeah, I get the feeling there's
Speaker 1: not a lot of viewers of The Simpsons, particularly at
Speaker 1: this stage of the game, particularly season twenty one, who
Speaker 1: are going to be familiar with the Smothers brothers particular,
Speaker 1: you know, offbeat style of comedy, stylings or whatever. I
Speaker 1: was aware of them, but yeah, I'm looking at going
Speaker 1: I don't know. I felt like, what's his name? Grew
Speaker 1: in just beak with me.
Speaker 4: You're like, this, this is garbage. What the fuck was
Speaker 4: that South Park reference that came out of nowhere? Added
Speaker 4: nothing it was and the thing is.
Speaker 1: Actual note what's with the south Park bit? Yeah, what's
Speaker 1: the point of it?
Speaker 4: What's the point of it? The only point is the promos. So, hey,
Speaker 4: the south Park takes and Simpsons taking the mick out
Speaker 4: of South Park and you have that visual of them
Speaker 4: at the bus up You're like, oh my god, I've
Speaker 4: got to watch this, and you watching it like oh oh,
Speaker 4: I go back to The snow Dogs where it's like
Speaker 4: the trailer is just the dogs talking the whole time,
Speaker 4: and you get to the movie and you're like, oh,
Speaker 4: that was Cuba Gooding Junior's dream sequds. It goes for
Speaker 4: about two minutes. Great snow Dogs, They're just fucking dogsn't
Speaker 4: even talk. Then the trailer I was talking and laughing.
Speaker 4: I'm like, oh, it's gonna be fun.
Speaker 2: Of the family.
Speaker 4: What the fuck is this the Cuba Gooding Junior movie. Yeah,
Speaker 4: so yeah, a lot wrong with this episode in the
Speaker 4: South Park thing, I'm going, I'm going, this is the
Speaker 4: first time the Simpsons have genuinely taken not taking the mick,
Speaker 4: but pay tribute to south By Child visually in this
Speaker 4: kind of thing. To this level, Kyle doesn't even know
Speaker 4: who plays Carl Millhouse, doesn't ever say anything, right, So
Speaker 4: he kills Kenny that's it? Which is Ralph Roight? Yeah?
Speaker 4: Which is Ralph? Ralph sort of mumble something under the thing, which, hey,
Speaker 4: that's because that's what Kenny does. That's not funny though
Speaker 4: you make it funny. Then he hits him and say, hey,
Speaker 4: you killed Ralph or Kenny or whatever. So what do
Speaker 4: we were saying before?
Speaker 1: It's like, this is the placeholder that you put in
Speaker 1: while you come up with a jokes like, oh, this
Speaker 1: is what's going to happen, but doesn't. Swartsweather talks about this,
Speaker 1: not about this in particular, but he'll say, I'll write
Speaker 1: a ship draft, yeah, and then I get to rewrite
Speaker 1: the ship draft because rewriting is the fun.
Speaker 4: Part, like get a story happening. Yeah. Yeah, it's like.
Speaker 1: Homer says something funny here, and then I'll come back
Speaker 1: the next day when it's tarting to do draft too,
Speaker 1: it's like, okay, well, what's he going to say?
Speaker 2: You?
Speaker 4: And I literally but that Millhouse ending, right, that is
Speaker 4: a sensational ending in my o. Pin it's really good.
Speaker 4: You can get an ending and go back from that,
Speaker 4: your reverse in engineer from that.
Speaker 1: Yeah about that, right, as always say, you gotta know
Speaker 1: your ending for yest.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but let's let's write that one. Absolutely. Yeah. That
Speaker 4: could be a subplot in the Simpsons movie too.
Speaker 1: Absolutely.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: No, I think I think we've actually got the bones
Speaker 1: of a good episode.
Speaker 4: Ye. With that, I mean, I will give the voice
Speaker 4: out of Jordan is the guy they yeah, Jordan, the
Speaker 4: guy who's who's the voice of Russell in Up. Yeah,
Speaker 4: he's retired and he doesn't do any more voice that.
Speaker 4: He was only nine years old when this when this
Speaker 4: was recorded. He's good as Charlie, he really is.
Speaker 1: He's one of my favorite moments.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, we'll get that in the second but I
Speaker 4: was surprised to learn that he was the not just
Speaker 4: the youngest guest star, but he's the first ever guestar
Speaker 4: who wasn't born before the show. He was good, he did.
Speaker 1: I must admit when I I thought who they got,
Speaker 1: I wasn't looking at who was doing voices before the episode.
Speaker 4: And on to the end credit normal, they don't get
Speaker 4: guest voices for kids, and obviously they haven't because yeah,
Speaker 4: a kid guest start.
Speaker 1: This sounds like a child actor, And I was sorry,
Speaker 1: who are child actors around this? I mean, because I
Speaker 1: was thinking, oh, yeah, mcaulay colgan is larger. Would they
Speaker 1: all grown up by now? So it's not them, We're
Speaker 1: so old?
Speaker 4: Correct?
Speaker 1: Who are the kids these days? But Colie Culkin is it?
Speaker 1: The stars of the good son Corey Feldman. But I
Speaker 1: really just remember thinking, whoever's voicing, Charlie's doing a good
Speaker 1: job and yeah, feels like a legitimate kid but also
Speaker 1: a professional actor.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah that worked all right as well, short and sharp.
Speaker 4: Yeah she's been on the show before, Yeah she had
Speaker 4: a more prominent role, but this time here she was
Speaker 4: just playing the third sister, but also a little interesting tippic.
Speaker 4: This was the last episode of The Simpsons to air
Speaker 4: in the two thousands.
Speaker 1: So I read, yeah, wow, time just keeps on slipping.
Speaker 1: So's in the great or silver Spoons, all that stuff,
Speaker 1: my favorite favorite moments.
Speaker 4: So you kick off of your first one. You said
Speaker 4: Charlie had one of yours.
Speaker 1: I think Bart referred to is an orphan like Any,
Speaker 1: except he doesn't like Tomorrow.
Speaker 4: It's like, I hate it so much. Good line reading, Yes,
Speaker 4: I really liked Any when I was a kid. I
Speaker 4: loved the movie Annie Loved as a kid. I alreadyatched
Speaker 4: about two years ago, and I was like, oh, you
Speaker 4: should have left it in your memory. Kid. It's fine,
Speaker 4: but it's just I just I was obsessed with the
Speaker 4: song to man is my favorite endings of all time.
Speaker 1: And then you grow up and you realize, oh, easy Street,
Speaker 1: it's the best song Tim carry and the Beaters and
Speaker 1: carries the best at everything. Tim Curry is pretty good stuff.
Speaker 1: I just gotta laugh out of this line that's still
Speaker 1: came out of left field. I think Bart's trying to
Speaker 1: wangle himself an orphan.
Speaker 4: My dad going to have any more real life Jaws?
Speaker 4: A bit off? My dad's wiener, what the real life
Speaker 4: Jaws I think it was a real life Jaws. Yeah, Jaws. Yeah,
Speaker 4: the ones on the movie a real life Jaws. I
Speaker 4: really liked in that scene where she goes to throw
Speaker 4: him out and he goes Oliver from the race car monopoly,
Speaker 4: the race car. It's true race car. Everyone wants to
Speaker 4: be the race car.
Speaker 1: Everyone did't want to be the race can If not, okay,
Speaker 1: if you can't get the race car, what are you?
Speaker 4: I'm probably the dog. I'm top out, top hat. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I thought you'd be top ha.
Speaker 1: I'm fancy yeah.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: And my other favorite moment, because I only have three,
Speaker 1: As you get older and you're in a significant.
Speaker 4: Is my favorite part too. I like you have a
Speaker 4: significant other. It's like, do we desert that? Do we
Speaker 4: make love? The eternal quandary? More and more? Did a
Speaker 4: first des desserts? Weading out?
Speaker 2: More and more?
Speaker 4: We always go. I would have dinner first, be fine, tomorrow,
Speaker 4: ray check morning, see in the morning. I was like,
Speaker 4: they're doing well. The one thing they're doing well at
Speaker 4: the moment is relatable margin Homer stories. And you didn't
Speaker 4: really relate to the detailing the lies or making the
Speaker 4: kids eat healthy thing because I thought I was quite
Speaker 4: relatable where it's like, we'll make the kids eat healthy,
Speaker 4: but we won't in secret. But yeah, dessert first or sex,
Speaker 4: Like they're nailing that aspect of the shape. Maybe it's
Speaker 4: just because I'm an adult watching it now, I'm just
Speaker 4: relating to these stories more. I think I was a kid,
Speaker 4: I would never any to do what they've been talking about. No, No,
Speaker 4: you surely can do both. Or you know, even if
Speaker 4: you're a te we even know what snuggling? What's what's snuggling?
Speaker 1: Yeah, or even if you're a teenager again, sex, eat
Speaker 1: and sex at the same time.
Speaker 4: Next question, you there eating the beast? All right, trivia time.
Speaker 4: My first question for you is what are the three
Speaker 4: ingredients of gelatine? Oh? It's is it hoops? Oh? Bones,
Speaker 4: getting bones the sickest horses.
Speaker 1: Yes, let's see only three questions. What is the brand
Speaker 1: of salt that but is on the path the frozen path.
Speaker 4: No idea, It's called Winter Road, Winter Road. Okay. My
Speaker 4: next question for you is what brand what license pants
Speaker 4: does Bart wear when he's doing the catwalk?
Speaker 1: If you mean the tights, they are the tights are
Speaker 1: by Hello Kitty.
Speaker 4: Yes.
Speaker 1: Now, my follow up question to you, which you'll probably
Speaker 1: get the belt is by what and the vest is
Speaker 1: by who.
Speaker 4: I liked this actually, so the belt's Twizzler and the
Speaker 4: vest is Nelson, which I guess is kind of a
Speaker 4: call back to the fact that Nelson may have was
Speaker 4: there when you're dating Lisa good well being. Okay, that
Speaker 4: was my that was your question, of course. Yes, my
Speaker 4: next question for you is what does Bart cook for dessert?
Speaker 1: And this was also my first question to you. Which
Speaker 1: is taraguan encrusted Atlantic salmon?
Speaker 4: No, that's the five course meal. What's the dessert? Old?
Speaker 1: Is it passion fruit parthe or something? Passion fruit soufle
Speaker 1: that's right, with a vanilla something. Yeah, that sounds pretty nice.
Speaker 1: I mean passion fruit, good flavor. I'm not a passion
Speaker 1: fruit guy. I rem my name, God bless the name Marlene.
Speaker 1: She whenever I'd get her yogurt, she always get by
Speaker 1: some yogurts for me. She loved the passion fruit flavors.

Speaker 4: the mickey or not to parody to do, but it's
Speaker 4: just you can't. They sound very much, said me. I mean,
Speaker 4: I just excel at every accent and impression that I tried.
Speaker 4: It sounds so similar to New Zealand as well, and
Speaker 4: it almost sounds like when they're trying to do they
Speaker 4: try to do South African and they do Australian, like
Speaker 4: what they try to do Australia, they're doing South African.
Speaker 4: You're like, I know, they sound similar, but they're also

Speaker 1: All Rounder is indeed best known for hosting, producing, and
Speaker 1: writing California's Gold and his Human Interest show Visiting with
Speaker 1: hughle Houser. Yeah, he's just one of those sort of
Speaker 1: all rounder guys who were just you know, did a
Speaker 1: bunch of stuff and was on your TV and your
Speaker 1: radio for goodness knows how long.
Speaker 4: Just one of those guys is just always there. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: and no, when he's up there and you're like, well,
Speaker 4: where's he going, you're like, oh, hey, passed away.
Speaker 1: You're in Australia and you're watching a show like say
Speaker 1: get Away Postcards.
Speaker 4: It's like and he didn't go.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you did this for a while. And now
Speaker 1: they've got a they're a very friendly, affable person. They've
Speaker 1: got a nice cushy gig, you know, sort of going down.
Speaker 1: Well today we're down the morning to Ninsula.
Speaker 4: But the cash gag, kid, there's no chalkboard game, the
Speaker 4: cash gays living room furniture is dwanging disco music until
Speaker 4: the Simpsons come in. How many yells? Hey? The furniture
Speaker 4: returns to a normal spot and the Simpson sit on
Speaker 4: the couch. But the sign gag was there was none?
Speaker 4: There was none? That true question. The episode kicks off
Speaker 4: with Homer and Lisa watching Under the Wrapper with Cuel
Speaker 4: hue Houser's es special on how they how they make
Speaker 4: gum drops and explain that's made of gelatin, which is
Speaker 4: the skin bones, and who's of the sickest horses which ain't. Yeah, lyon, No,
Speaker 4: gelatin is made of the less of parts of animals. Yeah,
Speaker 4: talking about lollies makes you not want to lollies anymore? Right,
Speaker 4: not even grape flavor, not grape snakes.
Speaker 2: No not.
Speaker 4: Indeed, Lisa asked them to change it because I just
Speaker 4: want to see the horses being turned into the lollies.
Speaker 4: But he increases the volume, then changes it to the
Speaker 4: Creative Arts Emmys, and it's just them taking Micky out
Speaker 4: the Emmys week again and also.
Speaker 1: The Creative Arts Emiges, which is kind of the ones
Speaker 1: like these are the ones that are too boring to
Speaker 1: put on the star studded Yeah, actual coverage, yep. And
Speaker 1: so they go back to the Oscars does as well,
Speaker 1: which is weird because they do they're like their honorary Oscars,
Speaker 1: but they don't do they they aren't broadcast or anything.
Speaker 1: And like this year they gave it to Tom Cruise.
Speaker 1: It's like, why is that not on television?
Speaker 4: Why is this not on TV? Who's gon to be
Speaker 4: sitting down in front of the TV and watching this?
Speaker 1: Well, that's the thing. I mean, apparently the Oscars are
Speaker 1: now going to be shown on YouTube as opposed to.
Speaker 4: Because people just watching YouTube on the tivvy.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and YouTube's probably bigger than TV these days.
Speaker 4: I used to be Monday, avoid everything on Monday so
Speaker 4: you don't find it. The newson Who Are the Best? Oscar?
Speaker 4: And you can watch the Academy was on Monday night.
Speaker 1: I still have a friend who does that. Yeah, was like,
Speaker 1: don't tell me anything. It's like you're really there to
Speaker 1: watch it tonight.
Speaker 4: Just a tradition. Yeah, but they still put it on television,
Speaker 4: the replay of the old delayed telecast. I don't know,
Speaker 4: maybe I feel like this isn't the Oscars just moments
Speaker 4: Now every just skims through social media, just bits and bits. Yeah,
Speaker 4: don't ever watched the speeches anymore. It's just giving through
Speaker 4: who won? Who won? Ye, I'm done, moving on till
Speaker 4: next year. But it's snowing outside now, and Homer says
Speaker 4: tomorrow is going to shovel away the global warming, And
Speaker 4: we're saying earlier, how this just turns into a real passionizing, sarcastic,
Speaker 4: tirated for no reason.
Speaker 1: Really, Yeah, and I mean it's it's ripe with possibility
Speaker 1: because you know home is just this traditional kind of like, well,
Speaker 1: he's either well, weathers always changed, global warming is a
Speaker 1: myth blah blah blah, or someone who gets his opinions
Speaker 1: from the latest influencer or pundit or whatever, and least
Speaker 1: is actually sort of informed, actually have them having a
Speaker 1: proper discussion about it, but in a funny way. But
Speaker 1: instead it's just this, it's just home as sort of friends,
Speaker 1: really dirty.
Speaker 5: Dirty dirdy, Like tomorrow I'll be shoveling ten feet of
Speaker 5: global warming.
Speaker 2: Global warming because weather at both extremes hot and cold.
Speaker 5: See so you're saying warming makes it colder, Well aren't
Speaker 5: You're the queen of crazy Land. Everything's the opposite of everything.
Speaker 4: I used to SIPs.
Speaker 2: Really no, no.
Speaker 4: The next day, the bulls are using the nerds as
Speaker 4: a sleigh or to pull their sleigh. Sorry, Bart's listening
Speaker 4: to the school closures and I'm watching this going if
Speaker 4: they fucking say the sproof of Elementary is the only
Speaker 4: one open, I'm like, we just watched the kids just
Speaker 4: watch an episode called Skinner Sense of Snow, which we
Speaker 4: reviewed back in last season thirteen, where the kids get
Speaker 4: snowed in because the school was the only one open.
Speaker 4: I'm like, if they retread this story, I'm not gonna
Speaker 4: be happy. But no they don't. It turns out it's
Speaker 4: just Charmers and Skinner, who apparently are now on KBBL
Speaker 4: reading it out. Yeah it's not just like, why would
Speaker 4: they be going in? I don't know. I just as
Speaker 4: I said, just a screw with bar And then Skinner
Speaker 4: tries to make a joke and Charmer's yells at him
Speaker 4: and that's that, and that's that. Yeah, anyway, I think
Speaker 4: he makes a Springfield elbow. Maconi factory is closed, who knows,
Speaker 4: but then goes to leave, but the wink is blowing
Speaker 4: him back inside, blows the stairs and blows him on
Speaker 4: to the catch with a maths book in his hand,
Speaker 4: and then he decides he's not going to do that.
Speaker 4: He goes to his bedroom to play the Iceman Killeth
Speaker 4: in bed and I don't want to right, they care
Speaker 4: it And then there's a blackout and Marge explains that
Speaker 4: nothing works. TV doesn't work, DVD players don't work.
Speaker 1: Well, you don't explain to it. He's like, well, I'm
Speaker 1: going to try.
Speaker 4: There's going to try this, and yeah, none of them
Speaker 4: work because there's more to that story of a blackout.
Speaker 4: Springfield during a blackout is fun? How about kids? Because
Speaker 4: I guess now we have portable charges wan, But in
Speaker 4: the nineties when I was a blackout, you were fucked.
Speaker 4: You were blacked out. You had candles.
Speaker 1: You had to break out the candles and the books.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Now or actually talk to people, yeah, actually try
Speaker 4: and you know, enjoy each other's company. But he tries to.
Speaker 4: I didn't mind there trying to static electricity, rubbing his
Speaker 4: head on Luna and touching it, and then the TV
Speaker 4: turns off and on I've got him on. Note, so
Speaker 4: old TVs used to actually shock you. Did you ever
Speaker 4: touch a TV as well? Yeah? And I'm like I
Speaker 4: turn that TV on the other day and it shocked me,
Speaker 4: and I was like I trusted you. Yeah. But Lisa
Speaker 4: and Maggie and now doing a fashion show in their
Speaker 4: bedroom and bars like, I actually just want to play
Speaker 4: with you guys. So he goes to get dressed up
Speaker 4: by Twizzler, the vesters by Nelson, and the pants by
Speaker 4: Hallo Kitty, which he thought was Spidery Man heads on
Speaker 4: his pants who takes them off, and Lisa says, you're
Speaker 4: just envious about sisterhood that you won't ever have you
Speaker 4: went because you don't have a brother, And I went,
Speaker 4: where did they come from? It's as where on earth
Speaker 4: did this come from? This hatred just annoying. Yeah, it's
Speaker 4: the thing.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know if it's the way it's
Speaker 1: written or the way that Yardley Smith is delivering it,
Speaker 1: but yeah, I mean she's coming across a spiteful Yeah.
Speaker 4: I mean they used to be.
Speaker 1: Oh, there used to be a time well, but it
Speaker 1: seemed there was a time when if Lisa was kind
Speaker 1: of doing that.
Speaker 4: I mean she would poke fun at bar antagonize each
Speaker 4: other's brothers and sisters do sit there, but at the
Speaker 4: end of the day they still liked each other.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I think it would have been interesting
Speaker 1: or sort of more. It would have made a more
Speaker 1: emotional sense, if you know, Lisa realizes at some stage, Oh,
Speaker 1: I sent Bart down a bit of an emotional rabbit
Speaker 1: hole here by pointing out that he doesn't have a brother.
Speaker 1: I didn't think I heard him this badly, or I
Speaker 1: didn't think would affect him to this degree.
Speaker 4: But no, but no, but it says I don't care
Speaker 4: about this and not bothered by the fact they don't
Speaker 4: have a brother at all. Then Lisa and Maggie reading
Speaker 4: the pop up book together and Bart's watching on really
Speaker 4: really sad, and he has the dream, this dream about
Speaker 4: the brothers. This was waste. Like two minutes of the episode.
Speaker 4: He comes across the Blues Brothers. I don't mind that
Speaker 4: puts the Blues Brothers, Mario Brothers.
Speaker 1: Brothers, Blues Brothers, Mario brothers. I don't have the Smyth
Speaker 1: brothers and their colts.
Speaker 4: That was real. But Bob and Cecil, they're such a
Speaker 4: Bob and Cecil are the right brothers. End it there,
Speaker 4: But no, we're going to cram in some guest stars.
Speaker 4: And he sees the Maning Brothers who just go on
Speaker 4: and on, and then the Smothers brothers just go on.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like I said, if you want to pay a
Speaker 1: tribute to send me commity heroes, Bo means do so,
Speaker 1: but he can't subject us to it.
Speaker 4: Oh man, this went over too long and it wasn't funny.
Speaker 4: It was just I was like, what is this? But
Speaker 4: Bat wakes up wanting a brother, and then Lisa walks
Speaker 4: Bay says, you can have mine because he's kind of
Speaker 4: an idiot, and I was like, hey, stopping, So there's
Speaker 4: no reason for this.
Speaker 2: You know bad.
Speaker 5: I want a baby brother, h and I love you kids,
Speaker 5: but I'm only going to the hospital one more time
Speaker 5: in my life and I ain't coming out.
Speaker 2: Lisa got a sister, Why can't you have another boy?
Speaker 5: Girls are easy, Girls love daddy. Girls make birthday cards
Speaker 5: with glitter on them. Girls can marry a hockey player
Speaker 5: and get me seats to hockey games. Girls don't steal
Speaker 5: my knife. And I don't have to tell girls how
Speaker 5: their bodies work because I don't know.
Speaker 2: He never told me how my body works.
Speaker 5: Point and shoot.
Speaker 4: Then it cuts to the boys at the bus stop,
Speaker 4: which is just like South Park, And I've already touched
Speaker 4: on this and there's just nothing to it. No, I
Speaker 4: don't understand.
Speaker 1: It's a pointless visual reference that there has no bearing
Speaker 1: on the story.
Speaker 4: No, you could literally take this out of the episode
Speaker 4: and it would affect nothing. It's so bizarre. Homer then
Speaker 4: gets home smelling terragon crusted Atlantic salmon, which but has cooked,
Speaker 4: but my margins looking looking all sexy. Inery barter Ha's
Speaker 4: cook them a five course meal of romantic dinner, and
Speaker 4: Homer says, you had me at five course, lost me
Speaker 4: it romantic and got me back with the dinner, which
Speaker 4: I thought was quite but that was a funny gag.
Speaker 4: Then he obvious the passion fruits to flay for dessert,
Speaker 4: and they're gonna make the decision, as we're touching on earlier,
Speaker 4: eat dessert or make love, like, yeah, we can eat desert.
Speaker 4: First cuts to them just in bed. No, we couldn't
Speaker 4: do both, and Butter's annoyed by this. Then Millhouse shows
Speaker 4: but they put in the DVD that Millhouse's parents used
Speaker 4: to make him, so it kind of works. It's the
Speaker 4: Karma Suture DVD, and homer Image tried to use it,
Speaker 4: but unfortunately it doesn't go to plan, does it.
Speaker 1: Well, No, they I'm not sure if they are. They
Speaker 1: tried congress with the crow, although personally I'm a yawning
Speaker 1: monkey kind of guy. Yeah, and just end up sprained
Speaker 1: and strained.
Speaker 4: Yeah, broken at breakfast. Yeah, Indeed. The thing is, though
Speaker 4: I'm watching his going, I know that the timeline is
Speaker 4: very all over the place, but DVD, he's really a
Speaker 4: thing when Milhouse was being conceived. Good point, if we're going,
Speaker 4: I know we're going back in this, I know if
Speaker 4: the timeline is now yeah, what does.
Speaker 1: Our pal always say?
Speaker 4: And this was written by.
Speaker 1: The patrons, saying with the timeline, but.
Speaker 4: Goes to the bullies and he wants them to work.
Speaker 4: Is it work out a way to give him a
Speaker 4: brother something?
Speaker 2: Yeah? What? Yeah?
Speaker 4: Why would they know? I can't remember anyway, but they
Speaker 4: mentioned the pill. It's a pill. It's what doctors give
Speaker 4: mums to keep babies in heaven, which is a funny
Speaker 4: also very depressing line.
Speaker 2: True.
Speaker 4: And then he's who's the person that you would go
Speaker 4: to who has a lot of kids? Is that Pooh?
Speaker 1: Is he in the show at the stage.
Speaker 4: Or does he ask them how to make a kid?
Speaker 4: I don't know who cares anyway.
Speaker 1: Well, you need one of those moments where it's kind
Speaker 1: of like, well, who knows about you know, who knows
Speaker 1: everything about sex?
Speaker 4: And reproductions? The older goods greater? Yeah, that's what does work. Yeah,
Speaker 4: But then they explained the pill. You gotta get rid
Speaker 4: of the pill. So but then swaps them for tactics,
Speaker 4: not tic TACs, tactics. I thought it was just tiktas,
Speaker 4: but his tactics apparently he throws me out the window
Speaker 4: and Nelson picks them up because he throws out because
Speaker 4: he gets shocked when Marge catches him, and she says
Speaker 4: three we think three kids are perfect and he says that,
Speaker 4: don't worry, I'll take care of it if you have
Speaker 4: ever boy, and she explains, well, if I have one,
Speaker 4: though it might be another book, another girl might have
Speaker 4: another sister. And we have him in visualizing visualizing sorry,
Speaker 4: the Sex and the City kind of with he's carrying
Speaker 4: all their shop shopping their three Lisa, Maggie, and the
Speaker 4: new sister apparently all bitches, very Sex and the City style, yes,
Speaker 4: and he's looking all their shopping.
Speaker 1: Around Sex in the City van clearly.
Speaker 4: I loved that at the time, and then I sort
Speaker 4: of watched a bit of it recently and I was like, ah, yeah,
Speaker 4: this show is just very much. I don't know, it's
Speaker 4: very I think.
Speaker 1: The best comment I've heard about Sex in the City
Speaker 1: was all these women are actually gay men.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I can buy that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, as I don't think I don't think. I mean
Speaker 1: it's created well, it's based on them, look right, yeah,
Speaker 1: based on the woman a book written by woman Tennis Bushnel.
Speaker 1: But I mean I think it's actually created by by
Speaker 1: a gay man. I think a lot of the writing
Speaker 1: stuff are actually gay dudes.
Speaker 4: It makes sense. Yeah, but Back goes to the orphanage
Speaker 4: now because he realizes that maybe he doesn't want to
Speaker 4: have the chance of another sister.
Speaker 2: One boy to go, please easy on the freckles, a.
Speaker 4: Ten year old kid adopted child.
Speaker 2: Oh you think he's for me? You know? The orphan
Speaker 2: is for my folks. They can't have more kids. It
Speaker 2: is so sad, A real life jobs bit off. My
Speaker 2: dad's wiener. Come on, it'd be an awesome big brother.
Speaker 2: I've got video games, a treehouse, a garage up to
Speaker 2: the rafters with illegal fireworks.
Speaker 5: Oh sweet Mersham, take me away.
Speaker 4: Uh oh, I'm sorry, it's not gonna happen.
Speaker 2: Give my brother everything I have. He could be a
Speaker 2: race car and Monopoly Monopoly the race car.
Speaker 4: And they throw him out. But a boy overhears who
Speaker 4: we learned to be Charlie. He wakes up Bart with
Speaker 4: yeah face or something.
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's either shaving cream or ready whip.
Speaker 4: I guess he escaped as Bart was leaving because the
Speaker 4: house a would you know where they lived? Correct? So incorrect.
Speaker 4: He explains to Bart that he's shimmy.
Speaker 1: See here's there's another missed opportunity. I mean, yeah, cut
Speaker 1: out that bullshit South Bar gag and have Bart walking
Speaker 1: home and you can see like he's being shadowed.
Speaker 4: Yeah by Charlie.
Speaker 1: That explained first all man could be a fun little
Speaker 1: visual bit, and secondly explains why he knows where Bart lives.
Speaker 4: But no, we've got to have a promo about South Park,
Speaker 4: so people think that a little bit the promos. But
Speaker 4: Charlie says, he shitting down a drain pipe just like
Speaker 4: Bar would. They have a lot in common. It's your
Speaker 4: favorite beatle dung like that. He says, nobody adopted him.
Speaker 4: Any want babies, I've got one of those and they're overrated.
Speaker 4: And this is where he cuts to Maggie and she's
Speaker 4: been nice to him. He's like, shot it somewhere else
Speaker 4: this stuff. Then he introduces Charlie to Homer.
Speaker 1: I'm doing a lot of heavy lifting on behalf of
Speaker 1: the episode. That bit where he's sort of dissing Maggie
Speaker 1: a little bit. If I'm being generous, that could be
Speaker 1: but trying to impress his new younger brother by being
Speaker 1: sort of like, yeah, I'm cool and I don't care
Speaker 1: and all this kind of stuff. It's and it's boys
Speaker 1: against girls and you know, us against the world.
Speaker 4: And how young is Charlie. I have no idea because
Speaker 4: Pat's ten. He doesn't seem that much younger, right, probably
Speaker 4: eight maybe anyway, So they interested Charlie to Homer and
Speaker 4: home no glasses, way to go not a Millhouse. That
Speaker 4: was actually that was kind.
Speaker 1: Of funny and yeah, it would tie into the one out.
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, and then he shows him off at school.
Speaker 4: Millhouse is confused, what do you mean? He says he
Speaker 4: was born with two noses? So we h him away
Speaker 4: UNTI week and fort Hey get and cut off and
Speaker 4: then Nelson starts crying all emotional because he's having the
Speaker 4: tactics and he's now an emotional woman apparently, yes, and
Speaker 4: he says you deserve good things, and then he eats
Speaker 4: another pill. Then Charlie and Bart are hanging out. They're
Speaker 4: poking dead animals. They're doorbelling Skinner to the quicking mart.
Speaker 4: And then Lisa arrives and Peo says, what's it like
Speaker 4: showing a bathroom with two brothers?
Speaker 2: Now?
Speaker 4: She says, what do you mean two brothers? And she
Speaker 4: says you have to take him back, which he doesn't
Speaker 4: atually explain where he's going from. So how the fuck
Speaker 4: does she know he's an all correct? Yeah, all this
Speaker 4: is just like it's a bunch of stuff that does
Speaker 4: a bunch of stuff happening. Yeah, barthy, you're just jealous
Speaker 4: because we're dudes with toods.
Speaker 1: Oh boy, that that feels like a very nineteen ninety.
Speaker 4: Something line gives them a not very very blast.
Speaker 1: No, it's not even a nineteen it's what you get
Speaker 1: on a Bart Simpson knockoff t shirt. Yeah, nineteen ninety two.
Speaker 4: Where dudes with tuds, dude with tude.
Speaker 1: And yeah, sort of looking out for a sunglasses. It's
Speaker 1: like here he goes, son, I know you're like Bart Simpson.
Speaker 4: Okay, it's from the Sunday Market.
Speaker 1: Merry Christmas, you got me? Oh yeah, and this it
Speaker 1: becomes your wipe up brag.
Speaker 4: Then he gives who gives them a not very very
Speaker 4: blast to calm down. Then they go buy tickets. What's
Speaker 4: the candy? Is it not on?
Speaker 1: Not in candy which is not gotten?
Speaker 4: Yes, can. Then they go to buy tickets for seven five,
Speaker 4: which is a parody of Sore five. By buy tickets
Speaker 4: for Divesty Kittens, which was an actual thing that people did.
Speaker 4: Like For the South Park movie, they say the box
Speaker 4: office wasn't as big because people would go and buy
Speaker 4: tickets for Stuart Little instead of going to watch and
Speaker 4: then go and watch South Park.
Speaker 1: Well, there's a reason that the Denzel Washington Bruce Willis
Speaker 1: war movie The Siege was so popular. It had the
Speaker 1: trailer for Phantom Menace before it, true, and.
Speaker 4: That was a thing. Yeah, you couldn't just put them
Speaker 4: on YouTube. Great. Did you ever go to a movie
Speaker 4: just to watch a trailer?
Speaker 1: Uh No, but there would be times that I would
Speaker 1: rend the a because I knew it.
Speaker 4: Had cool trailers on. Really. Yeah, we discussed recently. That's cool.
Speaker 4: I've got over there. It's like, sometimes it's fun just
Speaker 4: watching the trailers. Absolutely. They then watched the film and
Speaker 4: but it explains you think it's based on the on
Speaker 4: the previous said.
Speaker 1: Before, but it's actually no, it's a tribute to the
Speaker 1: rich history of Hong Kong torture films. I've never appreciated
Speaker 1: bart More.
Speaker 4: Charlie is terrified of this, but of course because it's
Speaker 4: sore and they're scary and gruesome. Oh yeah, yeah, But realizes,
Speaker 4: oh wait a minute, being an older brothers a lot
Speaker 4: more responsible than I thought. And then he thinks hears
Speaker 4: the Boogeyman on the way home. The Wigham comes out
Speaker 4: screaming boog boo boo boo boy, because why don't explain
Speaker 4: why he says that he just does that? Why is
Speaker 4: he saying boogy boo boo boy?
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 4: Man. We come back from commercial now. He tells Bart
Speaker 4: to step away from the orphan, give him no more love,
Speaker 4: and Charlie asks to be taken back home because he
Speaker 4: made him watch his scary movie. But in actual fact,
Speaker 4: he was just taking pepper straight out of his pocket
Speaker 4: and he sprays it into Wigham's eyes. So why was
Speaker 4: Wigham taking the aw back away from? But does he
Speaker 4: know the orphan? You know he's an orphan.

Speaker 4: the snow and they're going to hide the same way
Speaker 4: Eskimos hide from penguins. Was what I don't know they're hiding.
Speaker 4: We're almost there. They think that they're alone, but unfortunately
Speaker 4: Lisa is there as well, because why yeah.
Speaker 1: They haven't tig it in and why is that place
Speaker 1: now closed off? What's going on?
Speaker 4: No, No, it's not closed off yet because the plow
Speaker 4: King hasn't arrived here because you know, remember the plower King.
Speaker 4: That was a nostalgia reference. Hey, the plot kings arrived
Speaker 4: and he plows because you've.
Speaker 1: Totally forgotten about the plower King until liz Berry moment.
Speaker 4: So she says, you've got a decision to make. Is
Speaker 4: it going to be me or is it going to
Speaker 4: be him? Because you're got to make it otherwise are
Speaker 4: going to be locked in here forever with the snow,
Speaker 4: That's what she says. Excuse me, she says that, because
Speaker 4: she says, you need to turn him in yourself. Ren't
Speaker 4: get out of here. We're going to be locked in
Speaker 4: here because the plower King's arriving, and then he does it,
Speaker 4: and because she tries, they try to draw emotion here
Speaker 4: by saying you want to have a brother, but you'll
Speaker 4: always be my big brother. It's like you've been reading
Speaker 4: it and yelling at him and call him ship for
Speaker 4: the whole episode. You quite the said, why would he
Speaker 4: want to be your big brother?
Speaker 1: You just haven't earned it yet, baby, Why would he want.
Speaker 4: To be your big brother? What did they fucking forget?
Speaker 4: Everything that had her say up until his point is
Speaker 4: so stupid? Anyway, But the plower King arrived and he
Speaker 4: comes the hole with snow, and she says that it's
Speaker 4: too long to make the obvious decision. So then they go,
Speaker 4: it's okay, we've learnt one thing. Let's point and shoot
Speaker 4: one thing that girls can never do, and they escape
Speaker 4: because they piss on the snow and they walk out
Speaker 4: because it melts it and great, yeah, that's the end
Speaker 4: of that one. So we're back at the orphanage now
Speaker 4: and they go to we got a visit Charlie and Charlie,
Speaker 4: you know, adopted, go to visit him and unfortunately it's
Speaker 4: just been adopted by a family with six girls, and
Speaker 4: he yells the bart to save him and he gets
Speaker 4: driven away and that's the end of Charlie. Don't worry.
Speaker 4: We'll go spend some quality father sometime. And they go
Speaker 4: to watch seven five together. I must have been I
Speaker 4: didn't mind home a sort of running commentary of Severn
Speaker 4: five or whatever it was. That's so fake, Oh that's
Speaker 4: so real, And I would.
Speaker 1: Say that's the end of the episode. But we do
Speaker 1: get more comedy. Stylings of Smothers brothers are over the
Speaker 1: closing credits, and then Homer chimes in, does.
Speaker 4: He what did he say? I turned it off? I
Speaker 4: tapped down.
Speaker 1: I don't remember, but it was it's actually not unfunny.
Speaker 4: This wasn't like I mean, it wasn't a terrible episode.
Speaker 4: So I'm watching this going, oh, this could be so
Speaker 4: much better, and that's what's annoying about it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, look, I understand where you're coming from. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: disagree and say this was a terrible episode.
Speaker 4: I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: There were often episodes where it's kind of like I
Speaker 1: didn't like it to begin with, but the more we discuss,
Speaker 1: it's like, hey, there's some good bits in this, this, this, this,
Speaker 1: and this was the inverse of that where it's kind
Speaker 1: of like I won't say that I came and going, uh, yeah,
Speaker 1: this is the worst. But the more I'm sort of
Speaker 1: examining it, the more I'm going a lot wrong with this.
Speaker 4: Good Yeah, no good, I'm disappointed, disappointed Salmon, Yeah, Matt,
Speaker 4: I trusted you. What do we learn, Bomber? What did
Speaker 4: you learn for the episode?
Speaker 1: M that there are worst fates than being a one
Speaker 1: armed drummer in a prison rock band, which is what
Speaker 1: Charlie wanted to do. Is it's what Charlie viewed as
Speaker 1: is like five year plan or when the fuck did
