It's that time of year when the Geek Girl Soup gang—Susan, Kelly, and Cort—unpacks their holiday spirit with a hearty dose of laughter, nostalgia, and a smidge of chaos! This week, we're diving into Christmas movies, TV episodes, and all the festive (and not-so-festive) entertainment that made our watchlists.✨ Here's what's under the tree:A Carry-On review: What happens when TSA meets Die Hard vibes?Revisiting The Simpsons' first-ever Christmas episode, Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire.Peter's Family Guy Christmas fiasco in Gift of the White Guy.Spooky yuletide fun with The Sacrifice Game and other creepy holiday horrors.Kelly's peanut butter TSA drama, Cort's Scooby travel buddy, and Susan's volcanic Christmas inspiration.
Crack open a Duff beer, have a seat on the couch, and join us for a deep dive into the pilot episode of The Simpsons. Some of the very best in voice acting in your earbuds today, with the siblings wondering if the entire voice cast has signed a life-long binding contract with Fox. Carie is gagged by how different the animation is, Ross is eternally perplexed by the physics of Marge Simpson's hair, and the siblings recall some of their favorite bits from the classic show.

Send us a textBack in 1989, we all got the warm and fuzzy feels when Christmas came around. It was a time to reflect before the year ended, binge Christmas movies, and think of others. It really is the most wonderful time of the year.And then it got even more wonderfuller. There was a new family on the block, and they believed in spouses lying to each other, taking underage kids to the dog races, and choking their son in disgreement.Where did this show come from? Who were the creatives behind it?WOuld "moth" have made a better tattoo?All these questions, and more, will be answered in this look at THE SIMPSONS ROASTING ON AN OPEN FIRE!Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good podcast!
Ho, Ho, Ho! Merry Christmas, listeners. To round off the year, Chris and Mark go back far further than they're willing to admit in search of an underrated gem, wax poetic about 80s sitcoms, and ascertain that Mark's mother truly is one of a kind.

Today we are back with a very special Christmas episode! So, grab your mulled wine and join us in experiencing the true joy of Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire (S1E1). Let's explore the sketchy animation of the earlier seasons, Bart's hidden omnibenevolence, and - of course - the introduction of Santa's Little Helper.
Ho! Ho! D'oh! For this week's Christmas episode there was only one logical show to cover, The Simpsons. In our first venture into the animated world we meet Homer, Marge, Lisa, Maggie, & Bart, a typical middle class family living in the city of Springfield. Due to no holiday bonus and an emergency tattoo removal Homer finds himself with no money for gifts. Does his best effort to save Christmas earn The Simpsons a green-light from the guys? Tune in as we review their pilot episode, "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire". http://www.s1e1pod.com/
For over 30 years the Simpsons have been a part of my life, going all the way back to the Tracey Ullman show shorts that lead to them having their own television show that seemingly will go on longer than any of us will be alive. Every show starts with a first episode (that's how numbers work) and it just worked out that the first ever episode of The Simpsons also happened to be a Christmas episode – and a great Christmas episode at that! Show Title: The Simpsons Episode Title: “Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire“ Year: 1989 Season: 1 Episode: 1
In the words of the great Noddy Holder "EEEETS CHRIIIIIISTMAAAAASSS!" and we are talking about the first ever episode of The Simpsons. Learn with us about the legal age for a tattoo around the world as well as why Tom doesn't have a cow, man! ---- It's a not-so-merry Christmas for the Simpsons. Mr. Burns plans to cut Christmas bonuses, Marge has to spend the family's Christmas savings to erase a tattoo Bart thought would make a great Christmas present, and when Homer learns he won't be getting a Christmas bonus, life in Springfield gets even tighter. So what's a breadwinner to do, except take a second job as a shopping mall Santa?
The debut episode of the world's longest-running animated sitcom - 'Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire' - aired in the U.S. on 17th December, 1989; attracting the Fox network's highest ever Sunday night ratings.It was an instant sensation, with many contemporary critics remarking that the ‘dysfunctionality' of The Simpsons was in-keeping with other 90s hits Roseanne and Married… With Children, while conservative voices including George H W Bush criticised what they saw as its celebration of underachievement.In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly discover how it came to be that a Christmas special should introduce the series; explain why Tracey Ullman filed a lawsuit about it; and reveal how many colours are in the show's distinctive paint palette… Further Reading:• ‘Honoring ‘Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire'' (Vulture, 2018): https://www.vulture.com/2018/12/honoring-simpsons-roasting-on-an-open-fire.html• ‘Did Tracey Ullman Get Rich Off ‘The Simpsons'?'

As we inch closer to Christmas Eve, strap on your cardboard wings and buckle up as we take a 2-dimensional flight back to 1999 to revisit the Matt Groening-produced TV special, “Olive, the Other Reindeer,” starring the voices of Drew Barrymore, Joe Pantoliano, Dan Castellaneta, and Ed Asner as Santa four years before “Elf.”On This Episode:Mike Westfall (@fallwestmike), unemployed penguin ready to make you a deal on an extremely valuable watch.Erin Evans (@mserinmevans), my hard-of-hearing pet flea who’s only here to mistakenly tell you your family doesn’t want you here.Joey O. (@ImGonnaDJ24), an injured reindeer’s flightless cousin who’s very excited to be introduced as this, from Y-Not Radio and Words With Nerds.Topics and Tangents:This special premiered exactly 10 years to the minute after the first episode of “The Simpsons.”The Making of “Olive, the Other Reindeer” takes you behind the scenes to watch the computer animation slowly render on what appears to be a Gateway 2000 PC running Windows 98.We compare the animation style to PaRappa the Rapper.“Mr. Lunch Takes a Plane Ride,” the first book by “Olive” creators Vivian Walsh and J. Otto Seibold, was the first children’s picture book created with digital media.“The Goonies II,” a video-game-only sequel for the Nintendo Entertainment System in which the Fratellis kidnap a mermaid.Jay Mohr in “Camp Wilder,” a short-lived TGIF sitcom in the doomed 9:30 spot.The mondegreen, a brief history and other famous examples, how one ended up an official part of another Christmas Carol, and the stupidest lyric I’ve ever misheard.Dan Castellaneta uses a similar voice for the Postman as he does a few years later for the Robot Devil in “Futurama.”A brief history of “You’re no Jack Kennedy,” and its lasting impact.The time Bullwinkle tried to kidnap my baby at Universal’s Islands of Adventure.R U Talkin’ R.E.M.

Merry Christmas and happy holidays all! Taylor and Rob are joined by their friend Tim to discuss the first-ever Simpson's Christmas special. We are taking a break after this for the holidays so enjoy and see you in January.
The Holidays Season is here and we are kicking it off with the very first epodes of The Simpsons : Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire.
The Advent Calendar House kicks off another Christmas countdown with the original video game crash, which leaves Santa stranded in Pac-Man’s neighborhood in 1982’s “Christmas Comes to Pacland.”WARNING: This episode contains spoilers about Santa Claus from 11:25 to 13:30.On This EpisodeMike Westfall (@fallwestmike), apparently necessary police officer in a town named after its own savior.Lindy (@ieatvideogames), andAlicia (@thinkbluee), the Sour Puss and Chomp-Chomp to my Pac-Baby.Topics and TangentsSanta is flying with 8 reindeer, including Rudolph. Who got the night off?Why some reindeer actually have red noses.This might be the first time a Christmas special shows Santa using a computer.Russi Taylor’s Pac-Baby has the same voice she would later use as Robin in “Muppet Babies.”No one in Pacland knows about Christmas, yet the Ghost Monsters know “Jingle Bells,” which admittedly isn’t all that Christmassy, so it gets a pass.Absent from this special is the Ghost Monsters’ boss, Mezmaron, who looks like Darth Vader with his helmet off at the end of “Return of the Jedi.”Is Pac-Man living in a town where everything is shaped like him the Pac-person equivalent of cartoonists drawing faces or eyes on everything to personify them?Previous Podcast Episodes MentionedHe-Man/She-Ra: A Christmas Special (Season 2, Episode 18)Mickey’s Twice Upon a Christmas (Season 2, Episode 20)Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire (Season 3, Episode 9)G.I.

Marge soon discovers this and uses the family's Christmas savings to get it removed. Meanwhile, Homer discovers that he will not be getting a Christmas bonus from Mr. Burns and thus the family has no money to buy Christmas presents.

Here we are again the latest episode from the triplets of Nerdity, that’s right folks those wacky goofballs have done it again. First up we have Buck bringing us news about new robots using the art of Kirigami. The art of cutting paper, in this case it is cutting and folding paper. This method has been applied to robotics with some awesome results. Now while it is only early days, we ask you to remember the Origami claw we featured a while back. With this in mind you will understand why Buck is excited, and Professor joins in with the excitement. This is just the start of the show and it is already looking fantastic.Next we look at the dismal lack of taste exhibited by the foolish bunch of weirdos in Hollywood behind the Golden Globes. That’s right we said it, actually Buck did if any snipers are being sent for reprisals. But seriously, just get those idiots to go look at some of the amazing work in animation out there. It doesn’t have to be all CGI, honestly Hollywood was built on proper special effects. These days they struggle to do anything outside a computer lab. While we are not meaning to insult CGI and the wonders it can produce, why can’t we have some proper animation and anime getting awards. When can we see some real special effects like we used to get back in the day. Not meaning to sound as grumpy as Buck or as old as a Boomer but seriously the talent involved in special effects was astounding.Last we look at a remake of Sonic 06 that is actually looking good. That is until corporate lawyers realised they could make money by getting it shut down. Take a moment and open the link, doesn’t that look so much better then what was dumped on the market like so much garbage? The amount of work involved must be mind-blowing, but there may be hope for the future. Want to know what that might be, well you will need to listen in to find out. You thought I was slipping and going to tell you everything, but believe me, there is so much more for you.We finish with the regular shout outs, remembrances, birthdays, and special events. As always we hope you take care of yourselves, look out for each other and stay hydrated.Self-folding robots using kirigami- https://techxplore.com/news/2019-12-robots-self-folding-kirigami-materials.html- https://www.pnas.org/content/early/2019/12/11/1906435116/tab-figures-dataAnime Movies snubbed from Golden Globes - https://www.cbr.com/golden-globes-shuts-out-anime-films-promare-weathering-with-you-i-lost-my-body/Sonic 06 Remade by a Fan - https://www.engadget.com/2019/12/11/sonic-p-06-unity-pc-fan-remake/Games currently playingBuck– Pirates Slay - https://www.crazygames.com/game/pirates-slayRating: 4.5/5DJ– Frenzy Retribution - https://store.steampowered.com/app/1108560/FrenzyRetribution/Rating: 4/5Professor- Age of Empires 2 Definitive Edition - https://store.steampowered.com/app/813780/Age_of_Empires_II_Definitive_Edition/Rating: 4.733/5Other topics discussedKirigami Definiton (variation of origami that includes cutting of the paper, rather than solely folding the paper as is the case with origami, but typically does not use glue.)- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirigami- https://www.origami-resource-center.com/kirigami-for-kids.htmlT-1000 (A fictional character in the Terminator franchise.

December 17, 1989, was the debut of the first-ever episode of The Simpsons, and thanks to various production issues, the show debuted with its holiday episode: Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire aka The Simpsons Christmas Special. We're doing lots to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of that debut, starting with sharing our 2017 interview with the episode's writer, Mini Pond! Mimi Pond is a very accomplished artist and writer, but her side of the story on writing this landmark episode is rarely heard. Mimi talked with us about her time working on the show in its earliest months and so much more, so please listen to this interview recorded in late 2017. And if you enjoy it, be sure to listen to our many other interviews with Simpsons veterans all available to Patreon subscribers! Also, if you'd like to see more of Mimi Pond's work, check out her comics Over Easy and The Customer Is Always Wrong, as well as her other work including recent New Yorker comics and more on her website.
The Date is Dec 17th, 1989 and television history was made. Matt and Chris sit down to discuss the beginning of a cultural phenomenon. Coming fresh off a viewing the guys talk about whats changed and what remains the same. Find us on the internet @30yearsofdoh

Told in the same brash yet earnest style as her previous memoir Over Easy, The Customer is Always Wrong is the saga of a young naïve artist named Madge working in a restaurant of charming drunks, junkies, thieves, and creeps. Taking place in Oakland in the late seventies, Pond’s story details the trials and tribulations of Madge’s daily grind as a waitress at the Imperial Cafe. Mimi Pond is a cartoonist, illustrator, and writer. She has created comics for the Los Angeles Times, Seventeen magazine, National Lampoon, and many other publications. She has also written for television: her credits include the first full-length episode of The Simpsons, “Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire”, and episodes for the television shows Designing Women andPee Wee’s Playhouse. She lives in Los Angeles with her husband, the painter Wayne White. Wayne White was born and raised in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Originally White built his reputation as a world-class illustrator, animator, puppeteer, cartoonist and art director in New York and Los Angeles. He is most well-known as the Emmy-award-winning set and puppet designer of the seminal and influential 1980s children’s TV show “Pee-wee’s Playhouse.” In the last 16 years, White’s reputation in the art world has been firmly established with his masterfully created word paintings and for his rollicking, site-specific installations.

Over Easy (Drawn & Quarterly) Artist and Los Angeles resident, Mimi Pond comes to Skylight Books with her sort-of memoir Over Easy, a brilliant portrayal of a familiar coming-of-age story. After being denied financial aid to cover her last year of art school, Margaret finds salvation from the straightlaced world of college and the earnestness of both hippies and punks in the wisecracking, fast-talking, drug-taking group she encounters at the Imperial Cafe, where she makes the transformation from Margaret to Madge. At first she mimics these new and exotic grown-up friends, trying on the guise of adulthood with some awkward but funny stumbles. Gradually she realizes that the adults she looks up to are a mess of contradictions, misplaced artistic ambitions, sexual confusion, dependencies, and addictions. Over Easy is equal parts time capsule of late 1970s life in California--with its deadheads, punks, disco rollers, casual sex, and drug use--and bildungsroman of a young woman who grows from a naive, sexually inexperienced art-school dropout into a self-aware, self-confident artist. Mimi Pond's chatty, slyly observant anecdotes create a compelling portrait of a distinct moment in time. Over Easy is an immediate, limber, and precise semi-memoir narrated with an eye for the humor in every situation. Praise for Over Easy: "As funny and warm-hearted as a memoir about a bunch of punks, drug dealers, hippies, and art school dropouts screwing in the 1970s can get. Mimi Pond's coming-of-age graphic novel, "Over Easy", is a delicious charmer." --Jami Attenberg, author of The Middlesteins Mimi Pond is a cartoonist, illustrator, and writer. She has created comics for the Los Angeles Times, Seventeen Magazine, National Lampoon, and many other publications too numerous to mention, and has written and illustrated five humor books. She has also written for television: her credits include the first full length episode of The Simpsons, "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire" in 1989, and episodes for the television shows Designing Women and Pee Wee's Playhouse. She lives in Los Angeles with her husband, the painter Wayne White.
