Gus, Sam, and Matt are back at it again, and this time the episode is shorter than the feature length film, "Avatar".
We go back to February 4, 2010, and discuss the latest episodes from NBC's Comedy Night Done Right; Community's "Romantic Expressionism", Park and Recreation's "Sweetums", The Office's "Sabre", and 30 Rock's "Verna".
We also take a brief look back into the life, career, and criminal misdeeds of 30 Rock's "Don Geiss", actor Rip Torn, and how he found himself in bank in the middle of the night in late January 2010.
From a podcasting standpoint, there's also some practice on reading advertisements that we'll surely never get, and retracting praise for actors who Matt has since learned is wanted by the FBI for an attempted insurrection. There's also a distinct lack of audio drops from the series in this episode due to some software malfunction, but we more than make up for it.
Some questions raised but never answered are: could Andy Dwyer have been Greendale's Asscrack Bandit; was New Coke a scheme to slip high fructose corn syrup into Coke Classic; and how likely would it have been to have your car damaged if you parked at Dunder Mifflin?
Besides talking about aerolae and rubber nipples; there's also tangents into Cats, Bridgerton, Human Resources (the series and the profession), Juno, Beerfest, My 600 Pound Life, Breaking Bad, Office Space, Twister, Upload, The Hangover, The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, Paranormal Activity, Glengarry Glen Ross, and some requisite Anchorman quotes. The aforementioned wanted actor was in Chip Mantooth's posse in Anchorman, so we should've known he was a bad guy from the get-go.
