This was once my favorite podcast, but quality has plummeted

“As a massive Simpsons fan, I started listening to this podcast in the very beggining back in 2015, and for years I absolutely loved it. Bob, Henry, and Chris (gone years ago now) were funny and chill, and they talked intelligentally about The Simpsons -- my favorite show. What could be better?
It has sadly gone way downhill in the last few years now though. The previously 50 to 90 minute episodes are now regularly pushing 3 HOURS...sometimes they don't even START talking about the episode until nearly an hour in. The time killing is obvious and tedious. They've also fallen way down the rabbit hole of miserable dirtbag leftism in the last few years. You'll find less discussion of The Simpsons than you will endless rants about how the Clintons destroyed America in the 90s. They claim they're doing so from the left but when the content of your argument is basically indistinguishable from the nightly airing of Fox News, what difference does it make? They also keep having those nihilist pervert losers from Crapo Trap House on.
Finally, I was actually interested in them moving beyond the show's "golden years" into the more forgotten and controversial latter seasons of The Simpsons, but the progress of the podcast has slowed to a glacial crawl. We used to get 4 or 5 new episodes a month. Now, with the "audience chat" podcast no one cares about, frequent "bonus" episodes no one cares about, and the CONSTANT mixing of new episodes with looped-back rehashes of classic season eps they've ALREADY COVERED, you sometimes only get one-- ONE!!! -- forward-moving episode in an entire month! It is ridiculous.
I know I'm sounding like the world's most bitter hater here, but I genuinely loved this podcast. I didn't miss an episode between 2015 and 2021. Now, I'm out and I don't care anymore. It's sad.”Read full review »

“Great indepth (but not too indepth as to go too long) discussion of Simpsons episodes in chronological order.”
