Is it possible to create an interesting podcast around a discussion of roughly 24 minutes of stream of altered consciousness improv and a series of dick jokes? Find out on a very special episode of Rick and Morty, “Interdimensional Cable 2: Tempting Fate”! As always, our initial review and episode discussion are spoiler-free for first time…
Rick becomes a teenager to help Summer and Morty fight vampires at their High School in “Big Trouble in Little Sanchez”, our latest episode of Rick and Morty for consideration. We discuss our fondness for getting our ish together and packing it up, as well as experimental forms of marriage counseling.
Rick teaches Morty a thing or two about car repair in Rick and Morty episode “The Ricks Must Be Crazy”. Meanwhile, Rick tasks his space car with the seemingly simple directive, “KEEP SUMMER SAFE”. We also ponder the long term arch-villain possibilities of one Zeep Xanflorp, and wonder which of the Smith family is the most expendable, in terms of keeping our interest in an episode.
Things get metaphysical in Rick and Morty episode “Get Schwifty”! Giant heads from space appear in low Earth orbit, causing massive ecological damage. Is it the End Times? Have new gods arrived?

Rick and the Smith family are forced into the roles of exterminators in Rick and Morty episode “Total Rickall”, as psychic parasites that spread by infecting happy memories threaten Earth. We talk catchphrases, complicated Nintendo scams, and raw Thomas the Tank Engine raps.
“Auto Erotic Assimilation” is another landmark episode of Rick and Morty. It manages to be extremely funny, while tackling tough subjects such as free will, autonomy, racism, and ends with a major gut punch that never fails to land.

Harlots continues it’s back-half swoon as things continue to not make much sense, and we’re left with too few characters we genuinely care about.
