2026/01/09

To celebrate the holidays, here's a Patreon Exclusive episode of Tales Of Futurama...for FREE!It's the lost episode! Honestly, this wasn't the greatest Xmas episode we've seen. It's just a bit of a downer, which is the opposite of what we were looking for. Xmas eps are the safeground for warm-and-fuzzy cliches, this one went a different direction. A bold strategy, not sure it paid off for 'em.Essentially, Robot Santa is frozen in ice, which leaves Bender to take the reigns as the new Santa. A fun

Do you remember when Marge was a Playboy cover girl? It happened!
