Comedian, writer, producer, actor and hot-bed-loving Nina Oyama joins us this week to review 'Scenes From The Class Struggle In Springfield', the first episode credited to a female writer/director combo and THE Marge episode of the "golden era".We cover the struggles of not only Marge, but also the Simpsons family and members of the Springfield Country Club, as well as what makes Marge's transition into insanity so believable (and relatable), Homer discovering his newfound golfing skills, the lack of Bart and why it worked and more.We also discuss Nina's earliest Simpsons memories, the struggles of sketch comedy in Australia, terrible first impressions, her favourite take-out, the benefits of online shopping and more.Follow Nina at instagram.com/nina.oyamaIf you enjoy this review, please consider supporting us on Patreon for as little as $1 per month at patreon.com/fourfingerdiscountListen on Spotify - spoti.fi/4fDcSY0Listen on Apple Podcasts - apple.co/4dgpW3ZCHAPTERS:4:00 - Earliest memories of The Simpsons8:30 - Why this episode?9:45 - Nina's "Simpsons fan" rating system14:25 - What lead to a career in comedy23:15 - The struggle of sketch comedy in Australia30:30 - Discovering new quotes thanks to close captions31:20 - Is this THE Marge episode?36:35 - Homer's redeeming qualities41:25 - FAVOURITE MOMENTS47:05 - TRIVIA01:01:25 - EPISODE BREAKDOWNCHECK OUT OUR OTHER PODCASTS:Goin' Down To South Park - spreaker.com/show/goin-down-to-south-parkThe Movie Guide with Maltin & Davis - themovieguidepodcast.comThe One About Friends - spreaker.com/show/the-one-about-friends-podcastTalking Seinfeld - spreaker.com/show/talking-seinfeldSpeaKing Of The Hill - spreaker.com/show/speaking-of-the-hill-a-king-of-the-hill-The Office Talk - spreaker.com/show/the-office-talk-podcastBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/four-finger-discount-simpsons-podcast--5828977/support.
