Pickle Me This - S03E01 – The Rickshank Rickdemption (with Jonah Ray)

Our season three coverage of Adult Swim’s Rick and Morty starts of with a bang as we break down “The Rickshank Rickdemption”. This episode is truly a marvel of both comedy and plotting; Rick manages to escape a high security prison, cripple his rival Ricks in the Citadel while destroying the Galactic Federation, and for dessert, oust Jerry from his own family as part of a 100 year plot to bring back Schezuan sauce to McDonalds. To do justice to it, we’ve brought in MST3K’s own Jonah Ray to share his own connection to R&M, thoughts on “The Rickshank Rickdemption”, as well as a cautionary tale about scooter rentals. You might also be interested in his new project, “You Can’t Call Me Al”, a Weird Al cover album. Check it out, it’s a jam!

Pickle Me This - S02E06 – The Ricks Must Be Crazy

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.
