Phoebe mulls over whether to name Frank and Alice’s third baby Chandler or Joey. Ross is convinced that Emily is “being gay” with Susan in London. Rachel has a hot date with Joshua, and meets his parents — wearing only her lingerie. We also discuss: delicious Drambuie, whether we adapt to fit the names we’re given, proper asparagus-stemming technique and en croute-ing, the Amy Fisher/Joey Buttafuoco case, and a Cinderella story at QVC.

Chandler and Joey suddenly have free porn on their TV — and they’ll do everything they can to protect it. Monica convinces Ross to make a grand gesture and go after Emily. Phoebe finds out that she’s having triplets, and brainstorms extra jobs she can take on to help Frank and Alice afford three babies. We also discuss: how to NOT Google your way into a racy trap, whether or not having three babies would be similar to having one baby, and tweeting to Dan Rather.

Rachel throws a fake bon-voyage party for Emily — but it’s really fo Joshua. Meanwhile Phoebe struggles with the realization that the baby is making her crave meat. We also discuss the joy of shower beers, changing yourself for someone you’re dating, spin the bottle, and proper bra removal techniques.

Chandler goes all the way to Yemen to escape his unintended reunion with Janice, Monica obsesses over a light switch, and Ross tries to impress Emily by playing rugby. We also discuss: multiple instances of toxic masculinity and outdated gender roles in this episode, a distractingly fantastic wall sconce, and how Monica’s perceived failure probably haunted her the rest of the time she lived in that building.

Joey heads to the set with three days’ worth of fishing on him. The girls take Chandler to a strip club to try to push him into Phase 3. Rachel relies on Ross to take her boss’s niece, Emily (guest star Helen Baxendale) to the opera so that she can go to Joshua’s club opening. We also discuss: Shropshire’s proximity to London, the Three Tenors, Charlton Heston vs. Kirk Douglas, and give an update on the number of pairs of jeans we each have (we bet you can guess who has more!)

It’s S04E13, and we're treated to Joey’s first official “How YOU doin’?” Chandler’s convinced Kathy’s sleeping with her play-mate, and Rachel develops a crush on her new personal-shopping client, Joshua (guest star Tate Donovan). Monica misses playing hostess. We also discuss product placement, relationship red flags, Friday nights at Blockbuster, and Beefsteak Charlie’s!

It's S04E12, TOW the Embryos! While Phoebe is at the fertility doctor's having Frank and Alice's embryos implanted in her uterus, the rest of the gang is at Monica and Rachel's, where an innocent game of "who knows who best?" gets a bit out of hand, culminating with the girls losing their apartment to the guys! We also discuss pet peeves, how EVERYONE has hormones, and IVF vs. adoption.

Frank and Alice ask Phoebe for a wedding gift that’s a LOT nicer than a gravy boat. Joey gets a job at the museum where Ross works. Chandler is nervous about pleasing Kathy in bed, so Monica gives him a VERY memorable lesson. We also discuss: appropriate gravy boat sizes, the likelihood of being able to recapture the Honeymoon Phase of a relationship, the questionable etymology of “mastodon,” why Chandler wasn’t scared of the puppy, and our opinions on what the “seven” are.

It’s TOW the Girl From Poughkeepsie! Joey poses as a waiter at Alessandro’s just so Monica can earn some respect by firing him, Phoebe composes a holiday song, and Ross test-drives (or rather, trains) a long-distance relationship. We also discuss Oreo-consumption messes, one of our favorite bloopers, restaurant lingo, and “Marilyn Montreal.”

We break down S04E09, TOW They're Going to Party while Heather drinks Cilantro Larry's Bloody Mary! We discuss: peanut butter spoon etiquette, international cooking skills, and stewing in your own filth (aka taking a bath).

Happy Thanksgiving, Marinairheads! Joey is still mad at Chandler about kissing Kathy, and Chandler tries to make it up to him by spending the holiday in a giant box. Monica gets ice in her eye and scratches her cornea, leading to a visit to the eye doctor — and a connection with Richard’s son, Tim. Meanwhile, Ross and Rachel bicker over the true meaning of “sentiment.” We also discuss: TVs in the bedroom, the origins of the phrase “Va fa Napoli,” and makeup in the Age of Covid.

Chandler kisses Kathy and feels so guilty about it that he refurnishes the apartment. Ross shares “The Sound: with the rest of the group, and, in a subplot that never made it to network television, Rachel goes out to eat by herself. We also discuss: low-maintenance eggs, dining out alone (yay or no way?), “shirt meringues,” and Chandler’s questionable memory.

In S04E06, TOW the Dirty Girl, Ross dates a paleontologist Chandler lets Joey give Kathy the perfect birthday gift. On a catering gig, Monica makes a widow cry, so Phoebe steps up to the collection plate. Rachel makes it her mission to finish a crossword puzzle all by herself. We also discuss: Ina Garten recipes, Rebecca Romijn’s early career, how to properly complete a crossword or sudoku puzzle, and how a high school chorus teacher destroyed Elizabeth’s dreams.

In S04E05, TOW Joey's New Girlfriend, Phoebe's cold gives her a sultry singing voice, Ross and Rachel try to make each other jealous, and Chandler gets a major crush on Kathy, Joey's new girlfriend. We also discuss: overly-flirty leg placement, the Commodore 64, the new Lisa Kudrow/Steve Carell Netflix comedy, and the Noble Stalker rom-com trope.

Chandler wants to quit the gym (and we wanna drink it). Joey agrees to learn ballroom dancing in order to avoid Treeger evicting Monica and Rachel. Phoebe falls for her hot new massage client. We also discuss: David Duchovny's early acting roles, Ally McBeal and feminism, and the joy of tushy-biting!

This week, Monica caters a party for her mom, who has back-up lasagna in case she "pulls a Monica." Joey is visited by an encyclopedia salesman (guest star Penn Jillette), and Chandler starts seeing Joanna again ... and ends up handcuffed to her office chair. We also discuss: gum-scraping mugs, the meaning behind "Algonquin Kids Table," and the legend of Milton Berle.

This week, the cast and creators of Parks and Recreation came together for a one-episode reunion benefitting Feeding America! In this Bonus Bourbon Bonanza episode, we talk about the reunion, Feeding America, and give a shout-out to our Season 4 nonprofit, NAMI! Stay safe, stay sane, and wash your hands!

Phoebe's mom is a cat! Monica goes out with Chip Matthews from High School! Joey voluntarily gets into the entertainment unit! It's S04E02, TOW the Cat! We're drinking Orange Julios (basically the lovechild of an Orange Julius and a margarita), and in addition to these juicy plot points, we discuss: the absolute magic of fake cat paws, whether or not Joey was Tiger King-ed, and how hard it was to keep in touch with people pre-social media.

It's the Season 4 premiere! Ross re-ignites his relationship with Rachel ... by lying. Monica gets stung by a jellyfish and she, Joey, and Chandler have a regrettable experience as a result. Phoebe grapples with the news that her mom wasn't her birth mother -- and that her birth mother is still very much alive!

We had so much to talk about regarding the Season 3 finale that we split it into two episodes! Welcome to Part 2, in which we discuss: the pressure women are under to "Be a Lady," a couple of Chuck Mangione connections, and the summer blockbusters of 1997.

We've made it to the Season 3 finale! This week, the gang gathers at a very moldy beach house, where they play strip Happy Days Game. Phoebe also learns more about her past -- and meets her birth mom (Teri Garr)! Speaking of which, Young Frankenstein is one of the best movies of all time and you need to watch it. Finally Ross and Rachel share a kiss -- what does this MEAN?!

Pete's trying to be the Ultimate Fighting Champion, so we're drinking the Ultimate Fighting Champagne! It's champagne -- with a kick! We get into a couple of serious topics this week, including sexual harassment -- inspired by Chandler's harassment at the hands of his boss, Doug. We also discuss toxic masculinity, because we didn't think sexual harassment was a heavy-enough topic!

This week, Ross has something on his ass ... so we have something on our GLASS! Yoo-Hoo and Carvel appear several times in the background of this episode, so we made a cocktail using them! Big hunk of Carvel cake on top of our glasses? Check! We also discuss: dating multiple people at the same time, whether "we need to talk" is always a bad sign, and how swearing at menus indicates the level of deliciousness you're about to experience.

It's TOW the Screamer! Ben Stiller plays Tommy, Rachel's short-tempered date to Joey's (very bad) play. Meanwhile, Phoebe is on hold with the phone company -- for two days. We also discuss: Friends not being on Netflix anymore; Maryland crab cakes, and Ross's uncanny knowledge of Utah area codes.

It's TOW a Chick and a Duck! Monica is finally attracted to Pete (good job, spider burners!), Ross sacrifices his television debut to help Rachel when she breaks a rib, and Joey gets him and Chandler a tiny, "cheep" new pet.
