No Money Down Podcast

In this week's episode, Lisa confronts her inevitable cognitive decline on account of the Simpson-gene, and in the B-plot, Jasper freezes himself in the Kwik-E-Mart freezer to see a world into the future. A wonderful season 9 episode which was helped immensely with a really solid B-plot. Enjoy!!

"Stealing, stealing, stealing a car for Moe. Na na na na na na na na INSURANCE FRAUD TODAY!" Moe's attempt to hold down a girlfriend involve roping homer into committing an elaborate insurance fraud and him going to jail. Rob tells a story involving insurance fraud and condoms. [Synopsis at 10:50]

On this week's episode, we see Krusty's decline from hilarity into obscurity, and his eventual triumphant return into a Bill Hicks type character. This is also the Canyonero episode, which is arguably the best Simpsons song of all time (in Andy's very isolated opinion). Anyway, enjoy!!

A bus ride to the model UN club leads to the kids being marooned on an island - lord of the flies ensues. Meanwhile Homer starts up an internet business and is "bought out" by Bill Gates. [Synopsis at 3:05]

On this week's episode, Homer joins the Movementarians religious cult and unwillingly drags the rest of the family into it as well. Marge (with the assistance of Lovejoy, Flanders, and to a lesser extend, Willie) help rescue the family and bring the citizens of Springfield back to Christianity. Such a great episode, but very polarising amongst the listeners. Nevertheless, we had a great time putting this one together, and hope you enjoy!!

Carnies built this country... the carnival part at least. Bart and Homer become carnies and are swindled out of their house only to win it back by a grift of their own. [Synopsis at 5:45]

On this week's episode, the writer's take a break and give us a very mediocre singing/dancing clip show. Thanks to our writer-inerers for helping to make this podcast episode a great one, but we didn't have much to work with!! in any event, you guys will enjoy this so tune in, and let us make something out of (almost) nothing :)

Bart accidently burns down the Xmas tree and all the presents and pulls the family into a web of lies to cover his tracks which ultimately get all their possessions stolen by the towns people. [Synopsis at 12:22]

On this week's episode, Marge joins Red Blazer Realty after being recruited by Lionel Hutz, and Homer buys Snake's hotrod (Lil' Bandit) at the Police seized property auction. This was a bittersweet episode for us because, while it was hilarious, it was also Lionel Hutz last actual appearance on the show as Phil Hartman sadly passed away shortly after this episode aired. But alas, we loved the episode and hope you all enjoy this episode. Cheers!

On this week's episode, Rob and Andy discuss Andy's wedding, supernatural occurrences, and yeah, a little Simpsons chat thrown in the mix ;) What an absolutely wonderful episode of the Simpsons this is though, it truly had it all. Lisa, after undertaking an archeological dig at the site of a new mega-mall, finds what the townspeople believe to be the remains of an angel. Turmoil ensues, and relationships are strained as a result. Enjoy guys!

When Apu's mother tells him its time for his arranged marriage Homer convinces him to try to convince her that Marge is his wife. Homer then takes up residence in the old folks home pretending to be Cornelius Talmadge. Brilliant! Also this is Andy's last episode as an unmarried man! [Synopsis at 9:24]

Bart joins a peewee football team on which Nelson is the star quarterback until Homer ousts Flanders as coach and replaces Nelson with Bart. Bart is no Nelson but he does get some advice from Joe Namath. [Synopsis at 9:05]

In this week's episode, Homer buys a gun to protect his family but ends up causing a huge division between himself and Marge in the process. An absolutely brilliant episode, that does a really great job of "toeing-the-line" between the pro and anti gun groups. Enjoy!!

Andy returns from his bucks weekend and Rob is horrified to find he's a nerd (and is not drinking). Also the THOH segments are: 1. Omega Man - a neutron bomb hits Springfield leaving Homer as apparently the last man alive. 2. Fly vs Fly - Bart and a fly merge their DNA. 3. Easy Bake Coven - It's 1649 and Marge is on trial as a witch. [Synopsis at 8:40]

In this week's episode, Lisa's beloved saxophone is accidentally squashed. Marge and Homer recount the story of how Lisa first came about getting her sax, and Bart's story of finding his feet at school. All things considered, a great episode but it wouldn't be many people's favourite despite some funny and heartfelt scenes. Enjoy!!

The most controversial Simpsons episode of all time. The man we know as principal Skinner is revealed to be an imposter named Armin Tamzarian - which makes zero sense in Simpsons cannon but overall we find it to be a really funny episode. [Synopsis at 1:16]

On this episode, Homer is forced to go-back his his most hated city on earth to fetch his car that a drunk Barney dumped between the World Trade Centre buildings. We were both on the same page that this episode might not have been the strongest in terms of plot and laughs, but it’s memorable all the same. Enjoy guys!

Our first fortnightly episode! Bart gets shipped off to military school and Lisa decides to join him voluntarily (as the only female cadet). Bart excels while Lisa is a fish out of water. Andy tells what he thinks (incorrectly) is a podcast appropriate story about his dog shitting on his fiancé and the guys generally have a great time. [Synopsis at 13:30]

In this week’s special episode, it’s a spin-off showcase! Maybe not everyone’s favourite episode admittedly, but we have some classic segments in this episode which make it memorable if, for nothing else, breaking the mould. Enjoy guys!

It's the second highest rated episode of all time! Frank Grimes (or Grimy as he likes to be called) gets a job at the plant and takes an instant (and understandable) dislike to Homer. Bart buys a factory for a buck and employs Milhouse as its night watchman. [Synopsis at 12:21]
