Four Finger Discount (Simpsons Podcast)

Guy was away eating strawberries this week, so Dando is instead joined by his new co-host...Mr Black. Jokes aside, what a fun trip back to the episode that SHOULD have been the original Simpsons movie!

Kamp Krusty may indeed be the "krustiest" place on Earth, however this review is anything but.We discuss Homer and Marge's subplot, school camp memories, THAT Ralph design and so much more.

Safe to say, this episode could have gone very pear-shaped, thankfully what we get is a lovely story between Moe and his (future) fiancée Maya. Does Moe deserve such happiness? Some may argue no, but those people clearly haven't watched this episode.

We also discuss the new taking food into the cinema, the early days of Netflix, the new Lilo & Stitch film and more.

Homer and Marge are getting married...AGAIN! Except this time it's genuinely for the right reasons. Homer is honestly so likeable in this episode that it almost feels like damage-control against the "Jerkass" tag. On top of that, we also getting a really fun SAW parody. A pleasant surprise!

One of the all-time great Marge episodes that sees her take a chance on herself and join the Springfield police force. A great look at the roadblocks many women face in the workplace, as well as the perception of women with positions of authority.

We also discuss the "car hole" vs "car hold" debate, how Herman managed to conduct illegal activities in the Simpsons' garage, what happened to Snake's brother and more.

Dia duit! That's right this week we' gathered our lucky charms and and visited O'Flanagan's pub in Ireland for a pint or two, and boy are we glad that we did because this is arguably the best Simpsons vacation episode since Bart vs Australia.

Al Jean said the intention was to produce a love letter to Ireland and they succeeded. A really fun story that sees Homer and Abe buy an Irish pub and ignore the no-smoking laws.

We also discuss Colin Farrell, the 1970s comic series GASM, the use of the word "bog" and more.

Not only is this episode's story a showcase for just how despicable The Simpsons have become, but it also features arguably the darkest and bleakest moment in the history of the show. Basically, Homer blows the family's savings and they lose their house, Flanders buys it and rents it back to them, but soon evicts them after they abuse his generousity.

Meanwhile, since it's Easter, we also discuss Guy's latest hot-cross-buns escapades, the Simpsons writers losing our trust and Dando's new pet...kinda.

The Four Finger Discount family recently lost our beloved pooch Jet, so to pay tribute we've gone back and revisited one of the more heartfelt episodes from the earlier seasons, Bart's Dog Gets An F.

We discuss how revisiting the episode helped Dando grieve the loss of Jet, the history of Tracey Ullman's turbulent relationship with the series, the simplistic but effective use of Marge's quilt to drive the story and more.

For the first time in his life, Homer is financially liable for his actions. Can he last 3 hours without hurting himself? Meanwhile, Springfield Elementary are preparing to take the Vice President's Assessment Test, which means all of the trouble-makers are sent on a joyride to Capitol City with Skinner. A pretty enjoyable episode that sees Principal Skinner finally earn back some respect from the kids.

Plus, we get a pretty kick-arse parody of Final Destination!We also discuss the origin of the glovebox, kids asking too many questions and the importance of respecting your teacher.

Call Mr. Gocs, that's his name, that name again is Mr. Gocs! That's right, the hilarious Aaron Gocs joined us this week to review the classic "Mr. Plow".

There were many flurries of passion as we dove deep into what makes this episode so fantastic. Whether it's the spot-on guest cameos, the absurdity of Springfield's weather or deciding who was the villain in this scenario, there was so much to dissect.

Homer learns that he should have won class president back in high school, which leads to a bizarre "Tales Of Interest" type story where Luigi's crazy chef shows Homer the future he could have had. Safe to stay, we'd all rather live in the sauce.We also discuss having sex on a beach, the new HD era, best movie twists and more.

If you think Juliette was insane with her visions of Equalia, perhaps you should take a look at the writers for even conjuring this episode together in the first place. An absolute stinker that never seemed to know what it was, or even what it wanted to be, which is unfortunate because there were several interesting directions that could've been taken.

We also discuss another Simpsons "heel" theory, Dando wetting the bed, the best way to eat a peach and more.

CAUTION! This week's episode is filled with stingers AND zingers as we tackle 'The Burns and the Bees', an episode that kinda just feels, "there". Apparently the fate of the world's bees falls on Lisa's shoulders (well, her face) and nobody seems to care besides her. Meanwhile Mr. Burns looks to Marc Cuban on how a billionaire can have fun AND be rich. Meh.

We also discuss Dando's son getting hit in the face with a cricket bat, our latest battle with Facebook, the importance of seeking help when needed and more.

No need for the blown gasket, listeners! Although we can understand why you'd be excited for our review of "Lady Bouvier's Lover", featuring what Dando considers to be one of the biggest heel turns in Simpsons history.

We also discuss the legendary Simpsons' rumpus room, Guy's love of hot-cross bun variants, watching late-night infomercials in the 90s and more.

As a parent, this is without a doubt one of the most relatable episodes of all time. Whether it's Homer's stress/fears of solo parenting, or Marge's meltdown as a result of the stress/anxities that come with being a parent/partner, period. There is just so much to love here!

A pretty controversial theme for a Simpsons episode, even if it does feel like it came 5 years too late. Essentially, Bart befriends a muslim boy and Homer quickly assumes he and his family are terrorists. Meanwhile, Lisa becomes obsessed with Mapple products.

We also discuss becoming hackers, pointless calendars, buying new Simpsons PJs and more.

It's another "Lisa angry at Homer" story where Lisa changes her last name to Bouvier, after he (successfully) bets against her in a crossword tournament when she admits she's likely to fail. Did he do anything wrong? Yes and no.

Meanwhile, there was a real wasted opportunity to focus on Gil being the smimy heel of the tournament. More evil Gil!

We also discuss the lacklustre break-up of Skinner and Mrs. K, why we tend to self sabotage, as well as which beloved character should be killed off. Enjoy!

Has the weight of the world got your down? Well have no fear, happiness is just a "Flaming Moes" review away! We revisit this classic that sees Moe steal Homer's recipe for a successful drink.

We discuss whether Moe's actions were justified, the spot-on "Cheers" parodies (and not just the theme song), Catherine O'Hara's missed opportunity, Aerosmith's performance and more.

It's the holiday season here at FFD studios, so we've gone back and revisited this classic that sees Bart accidentally burn down the family Christmas tree and presents. There's lots to love (Brockman's news reports, Homer's parking hack, etc) however it also features Dando's LEAST favourite Simpsons moment of the golden era.

It's not the best Christmas "episode", that's saved for with "Marge Be Not Proud" or the pilot, however it's arguably the best Simpsons Christmas "special". Unfortunately Guy missed out on his cajun sausage this week, but need not worry since Nicola baked some Christmas trees for Dando and bloody spearheads for Guy as a consolation.

Worst. Episode. Ever. Well, worst episode so far at least. Just an absolute head-scratcher that leaves you disliking pretty much every character that appears.

Basically, Homer and Marge find out that they both came close to cheating on each other five years. Yep. Apparently "marriage in crisis" is the only story that the writers know what to do with flashbacks these days.

If it's rants you're after, you've come to the right place.

A pretty solid Halloween special that parodies Transformers, Mad Men and Peanuts! A nice blend of sci-fi and gore in the first two segments, however the tribute to "It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown" was top notch.

The Simpsons present their rendition of 'The Prince and the Pauper' here as Bart switches places with a rich kid he meets at a party. There's a truly great story hiding here somewhere, instead it seems the writers were more interested in continuing on the never-ending saga of Homer being a jerk for absolutely no reason. If there's one this episode does well, it's highlighting just how good a "tuck-in" is.

Bart gets a cell phone. That is all. Well, not exactly, although it kinda felt that way when watching since as Guy likes to say, "it's just a bunch of stuff happening". The annoying part is that there's a really solid story to be told here, however the writers seem more interested in getting the Simpsons to visit Machu Picchu for 3 minutes. At least we got Dennis Leary.

It's incredible (and sad) how an episode that aired almost 30 years ago can still be just as relevant today, as it was back then. Regardless, here we are with our revisit of "Much Apu About Nothing", an episode that is in our opinion, the gold standard of "Apu" stories.

We're back! Not that we necessarily went anywhere, but it's a new season and we're feeling optimistic after this fun outing that see Homer and Flanders start their own bounty hunter company. On top of that, Marge becomes an erotic baker which leads to one of Dando's favourite gags in a while.

We also discuss Guy's love of all things Robert Forster, the best way to eat a twist from Baker's Delight, the tragic career history of Dog the Bounty Hunter and more.

Lisa becomes Krusty's assistant, which leads to her becoming famous. Now don't be confused, this may seem like a copy of "Bart Gets Famous", however it's actually a really fun homage to the classic film, "All About Eve". What was even more impressive was that we both loved the way Sideshow Mel was handled too! Added great depth to his character and gave a better understanding as to why he continues to put up with a gig he seemingly hates. Overall, a good season finale!

We also discuss being unfriended on Facebook, Dando's love for collecting (or as Nicola calls it, "hoarding"), why modern Simpsons parody episodes don't work and more.

By the way, Happy 4th Birthday to Dando's daughter, Holly!

The spooky season is upon us, so we thought we'd get a routine soul smear and go back to revisit some classic Treehouse Of Horror with "The Thing and I", "The Genesis Tub" and "Citizen Kang"! So much to love in what's a great blend of horror without any true gore.

We also discuss lizard people, "Basket Case", where the Toth Fairy prefers to collect teeth from and more.

Yeah this one right here goes out to all the baby's mamas, mamas..since unfortunately we bid farewell to Mona Simpson! Yes it's the end of Mona's arc as Homer finally bids a permanent farewell to his mother, not before she asks one last rebellious favour of him!A nice twist on the "Homer's mother returns" story, where she may pass away in the first act, yet her presence is still felt throughout. The ending felt a little whacky, however for the msot part a nice story.

We also discuss Guy getting a tooth ripped out, unnecessary baby parties and more.

The following podcast is brought to you by ChalmSkinn productions. Well, at least we wish it was. What a fun episode! As movie nerds, this especially hits a home as it pokes fun at the Sundance Film Festival, along with the "festival hype" in general. Not only that, we get a genuinely lovely and heartwarming story of Lisa learning to aprpeciate her family for their faults.

We also discuss being stud muffins, Marge's adorable use of the word "snuggle" and more. Plus, we get a cameo from Elliott!

What a sweet episode! Bart becomes attached to a calf and attempts to save him from slaughter. In all honesty, this handled the subject of "meat eating" in a far superior way then South Park did for "Fun With Veal".

We also discuss "Super Simpsons Weekends" marathons, our love of banana bread, Ladbrokes and more.

"First you get the podcast, then you get the power, then you get the women." That's right, this week we revisited "Lisa's Rival", famous for not only Winona Ryder's appearance as Alison Taylor, but it's also when Homer finds Hans Moleman's jackknifed sugar truck!

We also discuss finding porn in the woods, piercing our ears, our love for Miss Hoover and more.

Lurleen Lumpkin is back! Except this time she doesn't want to bunk with Homer, she's reuniting with her deadbeat father, 'cause that always goes well. This was actually a lovely sequel to "Colonel Homer", with Marge helping Lurleen realise that SHE is in control of her own success, not the men in her life. Plus we get a pretty terrific guest appearance from The (Dixie) Chicks.

We also discuss Guy's latest "LIMITED" purchase, our favourite Madonna songs, the terrifying truth about otters and more.

It's another murder mystery! This time our dear pal Martin Prince is the victim in question...or is he? Honestly, a perfectly fine episode where logic kinda falls apart at the end. The "Sneaker" parody was a nice throwback though.

We also discuss the genius songwriting of the Black Eyed Peas, our fear of Komodo Dragons, the dial-up internet sound and more.

This podcast is BOLLOCKS! Well, maybe not the podcast, however the episode we reviewed certainly is. Dando sums it up as "inoffensive, yet forgettable", which is about all there is to say.

Honestly there were a few funny gags throughout (including a Disney reference that's certainly NOT aged well) but for the most part it's just another "Simpsons retell a story" trilogy.

On top of the review we also discuss Guy launching a "yawning" OnlyFans, our love of Clancy and Sarah Wiggum's relationship and more.

It's the one everyone hates apparently, although we're not too sure why, 'cause we loved it. A really fun throwback to the 90s which although at times felt a little on the nose, was actually an enjoyable teen-comedy-style story that felt straight out of 1997.

Plus, the Sadgasm songs were also actually pretty great? As a big Nirvana fan, Dando in particular got a real kick out of the references to Cobain's story.

We also discuss the rise and fall of 'Sugar Ray', eatings "snags" in the Bunning's carpark, the definition of "jump your bones" and more.

Let's not sugarcoat things, this episode was a disaster. A nonsensical politically-charged story that feels extremely dated in 2024, along with one of the most confusing "endings" (if you can call it that) of all time.

Apparently Ralph has been disguising his intelligence for 15 years since "I Love Lisa", as he now plans to run for president and make American great again. Absolutely bizarre.

On a more positive note, we also discuss whether Elliott's new goalposts actually worked, the charm of "Hawk Tuah girl", the etiquette of ordering fast food and more!
