208: Full Leather Jacket, with Karl Hess

Hey, everyone, it's time for your favorite Sopranos podcast ever, Pod Yourself A Gun. The world's ONLY Sopranos podcast (that's not hosted by a former cast member nor by people who respect prestige TV). This week Vince and Matt are joined by comedian, podcaster, Cooking Channel TV show host and huge Sopranos fan Karl Hess as they discuss Sopranos season 2 episode 8 (208) "Full Leather Jacket." AKA the most Seinfeld-ass episode of the Sopranos of all time. It's mostly about how Richie Aprile gives Tony a jacket as a gift and Tony insults him by not wearing the jacket. Seriously, that's like the biggest storyline in the episode. It's bizarre and forgettable and a pleasure to talk about with Karl. Here is a bit more info on the episode. SYNOPSIS: "Although Richie is miffed at Tony for forcing him to build a ramp for the pizza-parlor owner he paralyzed, he decides to make a peace offering. Unhappy with their lowly status as Christopher's lackeys, Sean and Matt decide to pledge their allegiance to Richie--through a violent, unexpected act."
