So I'm guessing Natural Born Killers was sufficiently well-known in Japan that the pun could survive localization?

Nina are you the one who runs this channel or is it just a happy coincidence, because Japanese Simpsons clips are wonderful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NkcYU4w0UEo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=32QFYTTLbzs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1HhuxmJKUM

A Musical With Lives On The Line is way too good a title to be wasted on a drat clip show

For those who are not patrons, but since I don't see it on the free feed, there's a free bonus episode about the whole Stark Raving Dad mess.

They squeezed an entire regular length episode out of a clip show holy poo poo. Definitely one of their more impressive achievements.

The latest episode brought up lots of fond memories of going to the local county fair when I was a kid. Especially the rides that I was too scared to go on but still mesmerized by. That wasn't Ernest's first gig as a carnie by the way: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQqPXqg3PkA

A little visual reminder for people who have not seen an almost 25 year old Adam Sandler movie in regards to the newest Talking Simpson’s episode. https://youtu.be/ATcP3a1dExc Bob and Henry are walking among giants.

I still listen every week, TS (and What A Cartoon) remains a staple of my morning office routine. It's been interesting to hear them getting deeper into season 9 and officially approaching "it's bad now" territory. Soon enough they'll be talking about episodes I've never seen! Also shoutouts to Henry for making a REALLY deep cut Hollywood Handbook reference ("Beef Barnes") a while back.

Bob and Henry were briefly talking about theoretically maybe redoing some of the earlier Talking Simpsons episodes in the future. I’m just about done my second relisten of the podcast and I would say don’t bother. Besides season 1 you guys quickly figured out your groove and it still holds up. I will say though that your post-Chris material and your shift to guest focused episodes has been fantastic for bringing interesting and alternative perspectives to the show.

Talking Simpsons lead me to Lasertime, Retronauts, and from that to Axe of the Blood God, and probably a bunch of other podcasts, please do not give me more things to listen to my backlog is absurd already.

I like this show a lot and stand in awe of the vast amount of content they produce. I would be fine with seeing them phase out the Simpsons at a certain point, since I think their audience mostly listens out of nostalgia for the early seasons. It would be neat to hear them dip into some random well-regarded later seasons to hear their reactions though. The Michael and Us podcast did that recently and it was pretty funny. Their King of the Hill and Futurama mini series were both great, so there's years worth of content to pull from those shows and I'll keep listening.

The recent season has been the first time the hosts getting off-topic has been bad enough for me to skip an episode unfinished (everyone getting PTSD flashback over PE classes especially) but then I listen to the Cartoons 101 guy having an episode about an entire season of an Adult Swim show that is 2/3rds shooting the poo poo about how bad LA traffic is and how awesome his unproduced pilots are and I have a newfound appreciation for how consistent Talking Simpsons is in wringing 90 minutes of on-topic discussion out of a 20 minute cartoon.

The personal stories are some of the most enjoyable stuff for me - I enjoy hearing guests who were also "banned" from watching The Simpsons growing up; I love self-indulgent, go-nowhere stuff like Henry's Tales of the Tape because it reminds me of my own obsessive VHS hoarding as a teen (I didn't try to lose the commercials, though, I couldn't trust myself to do that properly.) Speaking of, you got me to check in on Matthew Jay's Twitter feed and I'm very tempted to subscribe to his Adult Swim podcast Patreon just to hear their episode about MTV's Undergrads: https://twitter.com/AdultSwimPod/status/1141453740576145408

I have strong memories of watching the full run of Undergrads over and over one summer. There are only a handful of episodes and they would just play them continuously. I also just remembered Kevin Spencer, Canada’s garbage impersonation of early Adult Swim shows/ South Park. https://youtu.be/sc3YdwLNlcY

I remember way too much about undergrads for a show I didn't like and only barely watched when Comedy Central picked it up for late night reruns along with such pinnacles of Comedy as "Gary and Mike" Hi Guuuy

i feel like most of the thread's already on top of this, but i just finally started a patreon account and the perks for the talking simpsons empire are absolutely worth it if anyone's still on the fence at all. the interviews alone are worth the price of admission.

I'm not super into the interviews but the Talking/Futurama /Critic/KotH are amazing and so are the movie breakdowns. Three hours about the making of Akira? Yes please.
