WEE #37: Tweaks & Twists (S12E17 - Simpson Safari)

The Simpsons go to Africa this week while Jack & Dan stay put in WEE Studios with returning special guest Nick Noga. Season 12’s Simpson Safari, one of our most requested episodes (even Mike Reiss hates it) has a bag-boy strike (they happen!) twist and tweak itself into monkey and diamond-related hijinks with many of Africa’s famous landmarks and tragic quagmires used for comic fodder. Will Nick point out WEE’s flawed ranking system and ever-increasing disconnect with actual Simpsons commentary? Does John Swartzwelder save the episode with a strong first act? Can Jack effectively capture the typical episode-summarizing blurb Dan usually writes for each new podcast, or will he succumb to his natural tendency to use too many clauses and run-on sentences until everyone has finally given up on whatever he was trying to say? All this, plus Amazon’s Cat Drones, the Laugh Command Lunch Box, Jack’s frozen bread and Blood Diamond’s very own Leonardo DiCaprio. NEXT WEEK: Season 15's Co-Dependent's Day www.weepodcast.com
