We continue Season 3 with two polar opposite episodes. One is possibly the best episode up to this point, the other is close to the bottom. Listen to why Brian and Brian think this way and other mindless brainless chatter that you come to know and love when these two get together to talk about the Simpsons.  X- @smellsj Instagram - simpsons_ottosjacket Email - Ottosjacketpodcast@gmail.com Facebook - Smell Like Ottos Jacket Podcast

The Daily Wire and Adam Carolla teamed up to make a conservative answer to Family Guy and The Simpsons. God help us, we discuss the short-lived right-wing animated show MR. BIRCHUM (2024). God damn this one was rough. PATREON-EXCLUSIVE EPISODE - https://www.patreon.com/posts/697-donkey-152831913

The Sinbad Show is a sitcom that aired on FOX from 1993 to 1994, during the height of the titular comedian's stand-up fame. The series centers on David Bryan (Sinbad), a carefree bachelor who must trade his lifestyle for the responsibilities of fatherhood after he adopts two orphaned siblings. The show's DNA was built on Sinbad's high-energy storytelling to navigate the hurdles of modern parenting and urban single-parent dynamics. Despite Sinbad's massive popularity and a time slot following The Simpsons, The Sinbad Show struggled to find a consistent tone, with critics noting that the "cute kid" tropes often clashed with the star's boisterous comedic persona. The series was ultimately canceled after just one season as part of a controversial programming shift at FOX. Is this show going to be a forgotten gem or is it just a sin how bad it is? Listen as they deep dive the show's pilot episode and find out. Starring: Sinbad, T.K. Carter, Erin Davis, Willie Norwood (Ray J), Lorraine Toussaint, & Salma Hayek www.S1E1POD.com Instagram & X (Twitter): @S1E1POD

Ka-Pow the Pop Cultured Podcast is back with recommendations for some truly excellent television, our take on the comic book art-vs-story debate and a pal of ours with a movie deal. Don't miss it! (And don't miss out on the cool merch in our TeePublic store!) Length - 01:07:57 Language - PG-13. (Contains mild adult language.) - 0:13:00 - COMIC BOOK NEWS Local writer James Patrick scores a Netflix movie deal with his sci-fi series "Astronaut Down" and Todd McFarlane stirs discussion on whether art or story is more important to comics. - 0:29:12 - TV RECAPS & REVIEWS "Lanterns" trailer teases upcoming HBO series, Hollywood-set "Wonder Man" debuts on Disney+, season four of "Resident Alien" wraps up the sci-fi comedy, checking back in on "The Simpsons" after years, the outstanding "Game of Thrones" spinoff "A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms" and new seasons for returning favorites "The Pitt," "Fallout" and "Shrinking."

Emmy-winning screenwriter, the divine Ken Levine, was today's guilty, not guilty pleasure. Rushing off for a next-to-last dress rehearsal before tomorrow's sole preview, we got a good, healthy dose of the funny, as Ken is wont to do. Guilty Pleasures, his 10th published full-length play, opens this Friday at the Westchester Theatre in Los Angeles for a four-week run. An adult entertainment, no, not that kind, the show's disclaimer says, “Please note this play is intended for mature audiences, as it contains strong language and sexual content.” Ken adds, no nudity, but I know from experience it'll be loaded with laughs. Bonus, my pal, Marshall McCabe, is one of the four stars. One of the most successful humans I know, cross-genre, Ken is a multi-award-winning writer of such shows as Cheers, MASH, Frasier, The Simpsons, and Wings. He's directed over 60 TV episodes and has co-written the movie, VOLUNTEERS, starring Tom Hanks and John Candy; he's been a radio DJ and the play-by-play voice of the Baltimore Orioles, Seattle Mariners, and San Diego Padres. Ken's hosted Dodger Talk for eight seasons, has hosted his own successful podcast, and wrote one of the 25 BEST blogs, as says Time Magazine. Currently, Ken's a contributing cartoonist to the New Yorker Magazine and a globally successful playwright. Guilty Pleasures has been enjoying a two-year run in Prague! Why is he focused on the stage instead of the screen when clearly the financial benefits of the latter so greatly surpass the former? Ken tells it. As always, Ken reminded me how wonderful it is to laugh. A much-needed break from the current madness. I could sure use some more. I'll be heading to the Westchester Theatre this weekend to indulge in some of Ken's Guilty Pleasures (link in the comments). I'll be using code Heywestchester for a $5 discount on the $25 tkts. Hell, it's cheaper than a movie with real live actors making magic just feet away. There's nothing like Live theatre. Except ballet and opera, but don't tell Timothée Chalamet.

Show your support for Hospitality Sector Letter to the ChancellorWhat happens when two people who love a bit of unstructured behaviour get together for a structured conversation?The answer?Lots of unstructured conversationThis week I sat down with Conrad Brunton, founder of Tonic Talent, passionate hospitality advocate, charity champion, networking powerhouse… and a man who clearly believes that if you're going to do something, you might as well do it properly.Before we get into his journey. Conrad is seeking your help. If you have even a tiny sliver of love for Hospitality, please follow the link at the top of the page and put your name to support his open letter to the chancellorTo his story, From washing pots at 14, to running the best fish and chip shop in England (Genuinely), to bankruptcy, to building a respected recruitment business and one of the Midlands' most influential hospitality networks, Conrad's story is packed with resilience, humour, honesty, and a few brilliant war stories.Including… dropping a potato down the shirt of a senior British politician just before he went on stageYes. That actually happened.But underneath the laughs is a deeper conversation about pride in your work, why hospitality people are wired differently, and the importance of standing up for an industry that so many of us love.In this episode, Conrad and I get into…• Starting in hospitality at 14 as a KP and discovering the “buzz” of kitchens• The concept of restaurants being “a cockroach in the bloodstream” (credit: Sir Terence Conran)• Working at incredible places like Simpsons, Malmaison and the Fat Duck• Opening a fish and chip shop, and eventually being named the best in England• What bankruptcy really teaches you about resilience and self-belief• Why recruitment is really about conversations, not CVs• Building Tonic Talent, now celebrating 10 years in hospitality recruitment• Why great recruiters should feel like an extension of your brand• The importance of culture, accountability, and simple things like a good checklist• The incredible power of hospitality communities and networks• Why the industry needs to stand up for itself right now more than everSome cracking quoteables from Conrad“Restaurants are like a cockroach in the bloodstream, once it's there, it never leaves”“If you're going to do something, do it to the absolute best of your ability”“I don't actually like recruitment… I like the conversations”“Treat people the way you'd want to be treated, it's not complicated”“Hospitality people love what they do. Not many industries can say that”Why this episode is worth your earsConrad's journey is a brilliant reminder that hospitality careers are rarely straight lines.They're messy.They're unpredictable.Sometimes they knock you flat.But if hospitality gets into your bloodstream…You tend to find your way back.And along the way you might build something pretty special.Just try not to drop a potato down anyone's shirt.Show PartnersA big shout out to the first of today's show partner, RotaCloud, the people management platform for shift-based teams.RotaCloud lets managers create and share rotas, record attendance, and manage annual leave in minutes — all from a single, web-based app.It makes work simple for your team, too, allowing them to check their rotas, request holiday, and even pick up extra shifts straight from their phones.Try RotaCloud's time-saving tools today by heading to https://rotacloud.com/philThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podcorn - https://podcorn.com/privacy

In Part 2 of our first Pod of Fame Rewatch episode, Jim, Wando and Trajko continue their deep dive into the iconic Simpsons episode "Homer at the Bat."We cover the final three segments in Part 2:Power Ranking the Ringers (2:05)Casting What-Ifs (15:50)2026 Ringers (38:15)

In Part 1 of our first Pod of Fame Rewatch episode, Jim is joined by longtime friends and Simpsons fanatics Wando and Trajko for a deep dive into the iconic Simpsons episode "Homer at the Bat."We cover the following four segments in Part 1:Favorite Scene (27:15)Best Quote (40:49)Favorite Reason a Player Missed the Game (48:23)Nits to Pick (51:59)

As a lifelong Free Willy fan, Dando was certainly a fan of this episode. However, what he didn't realise was that not only was this a parody of the film, but also seemingly a spin on the dark truth behind the tragic real-life story of Keiko, the orca from the film. Safe to say, we learned something today.We also discuss the trauma of childhood films, Lance Bass' failed attempt at space travel, THAT brutal ending and why it was perfect for this story, plus so much more.LISTEN on Spotify - spoti.fi/4fzFQbj LISTEN on Apple - apple.co/4fCJmBvWATCH on YouTube - bit.ly/southparkpodcastSupport the Four Finger Discount Network for EARLY & AD-FREE access to every show we produce, as well as 100 hours of exclusive content!

In her new book, Born to Lose: The Misfits Who Made Dog Day Afternoon (Headpress, 2026) film historian Rachel Walther draws on extensive archival research delving into the film's backstory, tracing how an unbelievable true crime tale of love, bank robbery, and LGBTQI+ activism became a box-office smash and catapulted a group of Brooklyn outsiders into the media spotlight. Name-checked on TV shows from The Simpsons to Drunk History, and now a Broadway play, Dog Day Afternoon's legacy continues to inspire filmmakers, writers, and actors. Walther's deep dive interrogates the film's place in the 1970s zeitgeist, set against a background of antiwar activism and the fight for gay and trans rights, and in doing so shows its continuing relevance today.

"I ran across an article listing musicians who are in both the Rock and the Country Halls of Fame. There aren't many. When I started looking into it further I found that the people on the list were in multiple other Halls of Fame as well. I wanted to find out what musician is in the most Halls. There is a clear winner."

We've reached the end of the month, which means it's time for another episode of our community podcast! To close out the month of February, we talk about The Simpsons' 800th episode, strange Disney+ censorship, and the 10th anniversary of the screenshot search engine, Frinkiac. And, as always, we read and respond to your questions and comments from the last round of podcasts. It's all happening on Talk to the Audience: the podcast that derides your truth-handling ability!

With Supercars gearing up for its second round alongside F1 at Albert Park we thought it was a good chance for you to get to know the sport’s new play-by-play commentators a little better. Chad Neylon, Matt Naulty and Richard Craill have each walked different roads to get to this point and have become good friends along the way. They’ll share the lead calling role throughout the season.Why they are proper car (and bike) fans, the hard yards they’ve done across multiple forms of Motorsport, the grassroots and PA commentary that helped shape them and some of the impressive jobs they’ve done internationally too. From a shared love of ‘The Simpsons’ to the classic bike in the Neylon family plus the scars on Craillsy’s hands from working on his first car (he still owns it and won’t part with it) as well as the King of Story telling - why Naulty also has a forklift driver’s license. Much has been written and said about the sport’s big broadcast changes this year. This chat isn’t about reigniting that…..quite the opposite. The boys are all acutely aware of the magnitude of this job opportunity and very respectful of the legends who came before them. Why Rusty thought a shortcast would be long enough for this one we’ll never know. This is a ripper pub style convo between four Motorsport mates.

Kelly (yikes!) Meanwhile, Stan becomes the new leader of Scientology.A real "you had to be there" episode that doesn't exactly translate well in 2026, but is still arguably one of the most culturally relevant episodes of all time.

Crrrreeeeeeeak! That sound you hear is the door to the ballyhooed Now We Know vault, once again being opened to fetch your now-unlocked, once-paywalled episode for the week. This time it's Family Dog, the Steven Spielberg-backed, Brad Bird-created cartoon which aspired to be CBS' answer to The Simpsons. This was decidedly not successful, although at just ten episodes long, is it theoretically possible that a higher percentage of the entire run of Family Dog is better than the entire now-moribund 37 SEASONS OF SIMPSONS????? Probably not, but this much is true, at least: we never had to hear Martin Mull struggle to voice the dad from Family Dog into his 70's.

In this Hot Topic episode of The Neurodivergent Experience, Jordan James and Simon Scott react to major BAFTA wins for I Swear — including Robert Aramayo taking home Best Actor and the EE Rising Star Award.After previously calling it a “travesty” that Aramayo wasn't Oscar-nominated, Jordan reflects on why this win feels so significant — not just for the actor, but for neurodivergent representation in film.They unpack why I Swear works: it doesn't reduce Tourette's to a stereotype, it tells the story of one human being. The film focuses on John Davidson's life, not just his diagnosis — showing difference without pity, and representation without forcing a message.The conversation expands into a wider discussion about authentic storytelling vs performative diversity, why some representation feels natural while others feel manufactured, and how shows like Malcolm in the Middle, The Simpsons, Stranger Things, Bob's Burgers, and Rick and Morty have portrayed neurodivergent-coded characters for decades without making diagnosis the sole narrative.Note: This episode was recorded before wider discussion emerged regarding a moment during the BAFTA ceremony involving an involuntary vocal tic from John Davidson. We recognise the complexity and sensitivity of the situation. Our discussion here focuses specifically on the significance of authentic neurodivergent representation in film.This episode discusses:Robert Aramayo's BAFTA winWhy I Swear resonates so deeplyAuthentic vs forced representationTourette's, autism, ADHD and coded charactersThe legacy of Rain Man and stereotypesWhy storytelling should centre the person, not the conditionHow powerful representation builds confidenceNeurodivergent “goggles” and seeing ND traits everywhereWhy natural inclusion works better than box-tickingA passionate, funny, and thoughtful reaction episode about film, advocacy, and why authentic representation matters more than ever.Our Sponsors:

Krusty falls in love with Anne Hathaway, aka Princess Penelope, after she becomes his new co-host. Unfortunately, he realises that if he truly loves her, he can't marry her. Meanwhile, Homer, Carl and Lenny are scouted to work for a rival power plant.This episode celebrated the show's 20th anniversary, which one of us thought they did rather well, the other, not so much.We also discuss THAT Star Wars moment, our favourite flavour of doughtnut and more.Listen on Spotify - spoti.fi/4fDcSY0Listen on Apple Podcasts - apple.co/4dgpW3ZCHECK OUT OUR OTHER PODCASTS:Goin' Down To South Park - spreaker.com/show/goin-down-to-south-parkThe Movie Guide with Maltin & Davis - themovieguidepodcast.comThe One About Friends - spreaker.com/show/the-one-about-friends-podcastTalking Seinfeld - spreaker.com/show/talking-seinfeldSpeaKing Of The Hill - spreaker.com/show/speaking-of-the-hill-a-king-of-the-hill-The Office Talk - spreaker.com/show/the-office-talk-podcastBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/four-finger-discount-simpsons-podcast--5828977/support.

"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!

As The Simpsons hits its 800th episode, Jim Hill takes a moment to appreciate how this once-scrappy Fox upstart became an animation institution that may never actually end. From the long-lost series finale concept where Homer and Krusty were secretly the same person to the show's upcoming theatrical sequel and Disney's long-term park plans, this week's Fine Tooning looks at how Springfield keeps evolving. Plus, box office updates, Avatar sequel math, Matt Braly's next move after Sony, and a wild Steven Spielberg phone call that changed animation history. NEWS • The Simpsons celebrates its 800th episode with “Irrational Treasure,” the 14th episode of Season 37, as the series eyes renewal through Season 40 and a second theatrical film set for September 3, 2027. • Disney+ viewers can compare Season 1's “Santa's Little Helper” to the new milestone episode to see just how dramatically the show's animation quality has evolved since 1989. • Sony Pictures Animation's Goat opens strong over Presidents Day weekend, reportedly close behind Warner Bros.' Wuthering Heights, with final box office numbers still shifting. • Zootopia 2 crosses $1.83 billion worldwide, becoming the ninth highest-grossing film of all time, though its upcoming March 3 home video release may slow its push toward $2 billion. • Avatar: Fire & Ash reaches $1.46 billion globally, profitable but well below the franchise's prior installments, raising questions about costs and expectations for Avatar 4 and 5. • Matt Braly and Rebecca Sugar's previously in-development Sony feature is shelved, but Braly launches a Kickstarter on March 13 for his indie gothic horror pilot Clara and the Below. • The RiffTrax team raises nearly $1.9 million on Kickstarter for The RiffTrax Experiments, offering a hopeful blueprint for creator-driven animation crowdfunding. FEATURE • The behind-the-scenes story of how Judy Freudberg and Tony Geiss were hired by Steven Spielberg to write The Land Before Time, following his surprise discovery of Sesame Street Presents: Follow That Bird. • Spielberg's now-legendary phone call to Freudberg, initially mistaken for a prank, ultimately led to a creative partnership that bridged Sesame Street and major animated feature filmmaking.
