Laser Lenses | Aqua Teen Hunger Force Deep Dive

If you don't want someone to steal your contact lenses and torture you with their new-found abilities, you'd better get LASIK! If only Frylock had read this warning, then he could have saved himself, Carl, and Meatwad! ...Hmm, but then this episode of Aqua Teen wouldn't exist.... and then what would this podcast episode have been about???? THEN WHAT WOULD YOU BE READING RIGHT NOW??!!!!???!!??!!!?? Maybe a question for M. Night Shyamalan. Anyways, back to the podcast thing: today we're diving into the incredibly loved Laser Lenses! We're touching (with our plastic bat extensions) on the origins of the episode, gossiping about Carl's randomly new blue-tinted pool, and giving props to Terry's uncredited voice actor Vincent Pastore. I'm also telling you about a video I was in with ATHF badboys Matt Maiellaro and John Brestan! Other topics discussed include the 2000-era ATHF adultswim.com game Head Games, Davey Grohl's masterful PR team, and how reading about The Sims DLC turned me into a perv.
