Four Finger Discount (Simpsons Podcast)

This week we were joined by comedian Dave Thornton (what a scoop!) to revisit "Rosebud", an episode jam-packed with some of the show's most iconic moments. Whether it's The Ramones' (and Mr. Burns') happy birthday renditions, 64 slices of American cheese, THAT "yes" moment, or even Barney's "2+2 is 4", there is so much to unpack and appreciate in what may be Swartzwelder's greatest Simpsons script.

We also discuss whether we'd sell our child's favourite toy, McDonald's birthday parties, terrible stand-up introductions and more.

Regardless of how you say "potato", you're gonna love this week's review of "Million Dollar Maybe", a surprisingly heartfelt and believable story that sees Homer forced to hide his lotto winnigns from his family. Despite what you may think, he's actually a pretty great father/husband for the most part!

We also discuss complaining when waiting in line, the short-lived life of Springfield's newest resident, "Ricardo", our love of a good panini and more.

Have The Simpsons writers predicted Trump's death in an unreleased episode? What is the most overrated Simpsons episode? Which real-life celebs are like Simpsons characters? Who would eat who first on a stranded island? These are the hard-hitting questions we tackle on this month's mailbag!

Krusty falls in love with Anne Hathaway, aka Princess Penelope, after she becomes his new co-host. Unfortunately, he realises that if he truly loves her, he can't marry her. Meanwhile, Homer, Carl and Lenny are scouted to work for a rival power plant.

This episode celebrated the show's 20th anniversary, which one of us thought they did rather well, the other, not so much.

We also discuss THAT Star Wars moment, our favourite flavour of doughtnut and more.

It's the 800th episode, well, not really, but let's review it anyway. This episode is for anyone who has ever lost a pet, as we get a real insight into the loving bond between Marge and Santa's Little Helper.

A spin on the National Treasure franchise, here we see Marge and Homer take a trip to Philadelphia, where they get caught up in a centuries-long treasure hunt that can only be solved with the help of their beloved pooch.
