"It's your child versus mine. The winner will be showered with praise; the loser will be taunted and booed until my throat is sore!" - Homer J. Simpson In order to pass gym class, Lisa finds herself enrolled in the violent, competitive world of pee-wee hockey. But when her surprising goalie skills end up making her Homer's favorite, Lisa and Bart end up in an air-kicking, fist-windmilling battle for their parents' love (and one pet turtle's safety).  Our guest: Jesse Farrar from The Go Off Kings and Your Kickstarter Sucks Support this podcast and get over 200 ad-free bonus episodes by visiting Patreon.com/TalkingSimpsons and becoming a patron!

"Smithers, we could make a fortune with these Bible pictures. And I've been looking for a way to launder the money I made selling club soda as flu vaccine." - C. Montgomery Burns Sick of the filth known as "mainstream entertainment," Ned Flanders becomes a budding director and wins over audiences with his gory, Passion of the Christ-like short films. But when an outraged Marge boycotts his financier—Mr. Burns—Ned and Homer team up to get his religious message out there on a much bigger platform: the Super Bowl halftime show.

"Jessica, I don't think we should hang out together anymore. You're turning me into a criminal, when all I want to be is a petty thug." - Bart Simpson Bart falls in love—again—when the previously unseen Lovejoy daughter arrives in Springfield and makes him consider cleaning up his act. But when Jessica identifies his bad boy status and reveals her true colors, Bart becomes the fall guy for a number of her attention-seeking schemes.

"One thing Moe Szyslak has never had is a partner. Nor a wife, a friend, a chum, a casual acquaintance, a pen pal, a parrot, a meaningful conversation, a brief hug, or eye contact. I'm just going to call the suicide hotline now. ...And they've blocked my number." - Moe Szyslak Homer bails out Moe's by mortgaging the Simpson home, and Marge supervises this new investment by helping turn the run-down tavern into a classy British pub. But as Homer's bartender grows closer to his wife, will this scabby dead-eyed hunchback make him wear the horns of a cuckold?

"Relax, kids; I've got a GUT FEELING Uter is around here somewhere. After all, isn't there a little Uter in all of us? In fact, you might even say we just ATE UTER and he's in our stomachs right now! Wait—scratch that one." - Seymour Skinner It's time once again to bask in the warm, glowing, warming glow of yet another Simpsons Halloween special—and, quite possibly, the funniest one to date. On this fifth installment, Homer becomes an axe-wielding, family slaying psychopath, the family gets trapped in a dystopian society lorded over by Ned Flanders, and Bart and Lisa risk being gooified by their hungry teachers. And if that's not enough, it all culminates with a show-stopping, inside-out dance number! Our guest: Ian Jones-Quartey, creator of OK K.O.!

"Because of the Xanax, I'm not overanxious about being a Simpson anymore. I am a little anxious about being on Xanax, but the Zoloft covers that nicely." - Lisa Simpson Mr. Burns cancels the company's prescription plan, causing the disease-ridden Simpson family to seek a Canadian solution to their very American problem. But when Homer and Abe's drug-smuggling operation goes bust, the two find an unlikely friend in a certain 104-year-old Springfieldian who owns an aircraft perfect for a wild, third act caper.

We've reached the end of the month, which means it's time for another episode of our community podcast!

"I'm currently incarcerated... Convicted of a crime I didn't even commit! Huh! 'Attempted murder;' now, honestly, what is that? Do they give a Nobel Prize for 'attempted chemistry?' Do they?" - Bob Underdunk Terwilliger Sideshow Bob returns and dabbles in the world of Springfield politics in ways that may remind you of Watergate and the 1988 US presidential election. But when he uses his new mayoral powers against the Simpsons, Bart and Lisa have to team up or else risk living in a motel that probably costs more than six dollars a night.  Our guest: Chris Wade, producer of the Chapo Trap House podcast Support this podcast and get over 200 ad-free bonus episodes by visiting Patreon.com/TalkingSimpsons and becoming a patron!

Your regularly scheduled episode of Talking Simpsons is being pushed to next week for a very good reason: we've decided to shift our priorities a bit and cover an infamous animated special that's the perfect fodder for our podcast. (And we haven't lost our minds—it's for a good cause.) So if you head on over to our Patreon shop, you'll see that we've covered "The Simpsons Guy," The Family Guy season 13 premiere that mashes up Our Favorite Family with... that other family. The price? A meager $10. And every penny of it will go to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota. Can't afford an extra $10 this month? We'll see you next week, when we cover season six's Sideshow Bob Roberts. But just remember the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota is always accepting donations, so keep them in mind whenever you've got a little extra in the bank. Again, if you'd like to hear our exclusive podcast all about the season 13 Family Guy episode, "The Simpsons Guy," just click right here to head over to our Patreon shop. IMPORTANT N

"My son's making so much cash in the t-shirt game that I don't have to work another day in my life! ...Assuming my health does not deteriorate as I age." - Homer Simpson When Bart's final baby tooth falls, he puts away his childish things and enters the burgeoning adult world of chestwear entrepreneurship. But when he's ripped off by an unscrupulous kook, Homer once again assumes his man of the house role by resolving things with the threat of nuclear annihilation.

"This truly was the best vacation ever. Now let us never speak of it again." - Marge Simpson When The Simpsons head to a new, Krusty-sponsored amusement park, they find just about everything can possib-lie go wrong, from the lack of novelty "Bart" license plates to highly intelligent robots that turn evil via flash photography. But, like so many before them, the family soon learns that battling terrifying automatons can bring any dysfunctional group closer together.

"Mom, romance is dead. It was acquired in a hostile takeover by Hallmark and Disney, homogenized, and sold off, piece by piece.'" - Lisa Simpson In what's probably the worst episode of The Simpsons—or at least the biggest waste of time—the family recounts stories of love and loss via 16 clips and/or clip packages. Come for the jokes you've already laughed at, stay for roughly five minutes of new animation, and leave knowing this production somehow occupies valuable space in the otherwise incredibly solid season six.

"Sometimes you have to adopt your son's bully in order to bring your own family temporarily closer." - Marge Simpson After her own children lose interest in her motherly ways, Marge becomes a surrogate parent to Nelson, who takes a shine to living in a mostly loving home and eating meals that don't consist of live tadpoles. Meanwhile, Lisa develops serious body issues that can't be wrapped up in a single sitcom episode, but still manage to be partially resolved via skunk justice.

"I can't live the button-down life like you. I want it all: the terrifying lows, the dizzying highs, the creamy middles. Sure, I might offend a few of the bluenoses with my cocky stride and musky odors—oh, I'll never be the darling of the so-called 'City Fathers' who cluck their tongues, stroke their beards, and talk about 'What's to be done with this Homer Simpson?'" - Homer J. Simpson Lisa becomes the victim of her own insecurities when she meets Allison Taylor: a perfectly nice girl who just happens to be younger and better than her at everything. As she struggles to accept being number two, Homer gains control of a sugar pile empire that could very well be stolen from under his nose by roving, tea-drinking Englishmen.
